There’s a bit of #CCPickleGreen for #colour_collective in this zhuzhed piece. And I think this cat is definitely called Pickle too! Now it’s back to tackling the to-do list for me! 💜

Back with an old favourite for #colour_collective #CCHeather. I had to prep some needle felting for an event tomorrow & totally ran out of time for CC cos it was also one of those days where weird stuff happens (like drawers falling apart without warning) and eats into your plans! 🤪💜

Another zhuzhed old piece for #colour_collective #CCAuburn. I’m deep in the race to the end of the year & my spare time is practically non-existent so I returned to this relatively peaceful little tiger who’s probably never even *heard* of ‘deadlines’. How are you doing this October? 💜

A complete redraw of an ooooooold piece for #colour_collective #CCPrussianBlue, because I wanted to draw something sparkly and didn’t want to think. I do love Prussian Blue! 💜

Everything is better with a ladybug! Currently manifesting them because there are so many aphids on our roses 😅
Love the brown and blue combo!
Kept it suuuuuper simple for #colour_collective #CCFallow. I’m tired. 😅💜

Would you believe it, I’ve written a substack post. Find out what I’ve been up to since I last managed that feat (in June 😬) - get to the end and be rewarded with a photo of my dog!

I feel like the one in the middle has accidentally rustled a chip packet 😅
Dug deep into my archives for #colour_collective #CCForestGreen and gave this old favourite a teeny bit of an update. My to do list is not conducive to drawing whole things from scratch today and anyway, this cat and I are basically the same right now. 🫠💜

Ghost bunnies frolicking for #colour_collective #CCDoveGrey. I don’t know either, I’ve just apparently reached the point in the year where ghost bunnies seem a logical thing to draw. 💜

Thank you, Raven! Sometimes you just have to draw something that isn’t anything other than cute, y’know? 💜
Thank you, Traci! I REALLY needed to draw something cute. 💜
A comfort-zone sketch for #colour_collective #CCPalatinate, based vaguely on a vintage photo I found on Pinterest. I can confirm that drawing spots on a dog is very cathartic if you’ve been a bit stressed. 💜

There’s a new holland honeyeater in our garden with NO finesse, launching himself at branches & almost missing, flying erratically, looking like he’s been through a bush backwards (to be honest he probably has) and I LOVE him. So here he is for #colour_collective #CCStrawYellow 💜

I was sick ALL Book Week, but I did manage to make it to the launch of Crunch! Kaboom! at Melville Library.

You can read about the launch here: www.alene-art.com/journal/crun...

HUGE thanks to Clodagh for doing the heavy lifting, & Sam & Lorraine at the library, who made it an amazing event!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Crunch! Kaboom! Is out today with Fremantle Press! Head to my substack to learn about discarded concepts and my quest to illustrate sound effects with typography in a behind the scenes post! 💜
