Themed Portraits - Woody and Cinderella

I've got another Christmas commission to share with you all!
This time is a bit of a Disney mash up, with Ian as Woody and Mich as Cinderella, coloured using copic markers.

If you'd like to see yourself as your favourite Disney character, or you know someone who would, then please get in touch: sara-dunkerton@hotmail.com

Pet Portraits - Monte

Here's another christmas present, this time a Pet portrait I did of my family's dog for my Dad.

Poor old Monte dog passed away in October and I thought it would be nice for Dad to have this on the wall to remember him. This illustration was done using pencil colours and is based on this photo that my sister took.

Themed Portraits - Ash Dodd

Here's another Themed Portrait for Christmas!
This one was a secret santa present for the anime obsessed Matt, who I've caricatured to look like Ash Ketchum from Pokemon.

Hope you liked it Matt!

Here's another commission that follows the trend of mousifying characters!
Fellow Improper person, Chris Wildgoose commissioned a Poirot Mouse as a christmas present.

 

I'm undecided wether I like his meticulous whisker-tasche or his spats best!

Totoro Earrings - Handmade Jewellery!

When I needle felted this trio of forest guardians you might have guessed I was a Totoro nut, well I've taken it one step further and done something I've been meaning to do for almost half a year!
I've made Totoro Earrings! :D

Some of you may have spotted me wearing this set of earrings at Thought Bubble last weekend, and I promised I'd be posting up a blog with photo examples and pricing for anyone who is interested.
Well this is what you've been waiting for!

Each stud is made out of coloured Fimo with the details painted on using acrylics and then varnished with a satin finish. The earring posts are silver Surgical Steel and the backs are soft clear plastic stoppers (as pictured further below).
