My Bio

Hi, I am Shona, I’m a hobby artist from Scotland. This page goes back a long long way in my life and has collected art featuring many of my different interests over the years, and I hope it never dies. Since the last time I logged in here I had a daughter and now my life kinda revolves around her, but I still draw when I get the time.

Graphic Design

Hi, just a little bit of news I've started a distance learning course in Graphic Design with the Open College of the Arts. Enjoying it so far! You can see my progress on my learning log Tumblr - http://shonablog.tumblr.com/ I'm not spending a whole lot of time on dA these days, so things might not really get updated so much over here. It's still useful for keeping a gallery of all my work though, so I'm not abandoning it yet. I also have a personal Tumblr where I have a mixture of stuff I've done and reblogs of stuff I find interesting. That's -http://myainsel.tumblr.com/ See you around!  :)

Happy New Year

Itching to get back to painting classes again, but they don't start for another two weeks! Got a rotten cold just now as well.  Thankfully, this week brings shorter work hours now late night shopping is finished. Been slobbing about today on my day off, reading, resting, and playing Farcry3 (ace). Now I should go and work on my "visual diary" for my art class.  Basically we're gathering together interesting pictures and test paintings to get some kind of thread going for our own project.  I have a lot of landscapes and purple skies in mine.  I'm a wee bit nervous about it actually, been a long time since I've had to show my homework.
