CMYK Wise Afro King

Orad Wise Afro King

Npink Wise Afro King

Geometric tiles in soft shades of rose, grey, honey, blush and amethyst marble and quartz set in a hexagon based lattice.

A palest mint, blue and white Art Deco pattern - makes me think of circus tents. :)

A fun & colorful striped watercolor pattern in bright vintage tones of orange, green, white, red, indigo, yellow, teal, pink, magenta and aqua.

A different colorway of a recent watercolor pattern that I made from hand painted swirls and doodles.

A snowflake medallion in shades of cream, gold and mustard.

Back to messing around with hexagons & geometry. This pattern / artwork is full of imperfections & irregularities that counter the mathematical structure it is based on.

An abstract pattern, reminiscent of seeds / feathers / leaves / flowers in soft pastel colours on grey.

Hope you like it!

A monochromatic colour version of my Center of Attention doodle. : )

Hope you like it!

My 49th work in my 52 week challenge. Only three to go! I really enjoyed doing this one, not least because my personal chef made macaroons to go with my tea...

I want to try new things, explore new styles, change my perspective. This is a start. : ) Mila - nearly six - my ever faithful little model. Please let me know what you think, for real, what you like, what you don't like (seriously, I won't be offended!) and if you have any idea, links, pointers for styles / portraits you think I should try, well, that would be awesome!! (No pressure, lol!) Camera Model Canon EOS 600D Shooting Mode Manual Exposure Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/100 Av( Aperture Value ) 3.2 ISO Speed 400 Lens EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM

Levi, 6 months old, in Joshua's hands. I thought I might do a series of these 'baby in hands' images, as Levi grows and changes. He is sitting now, and is a constant joy to all of us. Both images were taken with my Canon EOS 600D

A simple portrait of little Cairo, since gone to live with a friend. He really is the sweetest of kittens. : ) Camera Model Canon EOS 500D Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/320 Av( Aperture Value ) 4.0 ISO Speed 100 Lens EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Processed in Photoshop CS2.

This is little Levi, 18 months old tomorrow. This is my 23rd work in my 52 week challenge (did last weeks late and this week I'm a little early, but it still counts, right?) I've had this idea for a while and have been longing to try it, but it didn't turn out nearly how I hoped it would. But I thought I would post it anyway, all that work! I might try and re-do it someday. But not today. : ) Two of my own original photographs, manipulated in Photoshop.

This is an old favorite of mine, I just wanted to alter the colours a bit... You can view the other version "here":http://www.redbubble.com/people/micklyn/works/6282261-alter-ego?c=17668-cute-tees-and-stickers Hand drawn, coloured in Photoshop.

Just like every other baby we've ever known, Levi loves Johnny. (We are not sure what he does to deserve it, but ALL babies love Johnny. Maybe it's just 'cos he's SO good looking.) Levi has just learnt to blow kisses, here, I caught him in the act. Hence the cute funny face. : ) My sons, John (14) and Levi (10 months) photographed with my Canon EOS 600D in natural light.

I wanted to try a different style of processing on the same subject, so this is my second raspberry still life. Still not sure which I prefer, though. Would love to hear your thoughts on the matter! : ) Camera Model Canon EOS 600D

A portrait of Mila, 5. Because I was feeling out of sorts, and doing portrait photography is a form of self-medication for me. Feeling much better now. : P

Better viewed large. This is my three year old son, Reilly. Full of energy, mischief and high spirits, never sits still for a second. So expressive, so entertaining. I thought I would document just a few of his million-a-minute expressions - for posterity. Lol. Natural light Camera Model Canon EOS 600D

"But you are a _chosen_ generation, a _royal_ priesthood, a _holy_ nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy." 1 Peter 2:9,10

This is Hudson, aged 5 and a half. He can be, well, fairly mischievous (slight understatement, maybe) and sometimes it is truly a good thing that there is only one of him. On other days, however, he is just so _angelic_ that I wouldn't turn down the offer of an extra pair of Hudsons... : )

Mila (3) was doing pirouettes on the lawn. How could I resist? The unselfconsciousness of children is breathtaking. Shot in natural light with my Canon EOS 500D Shooting Date/Time 2011/03/09 03:05:25 PM Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/640 Av( Aperture Value ) 2.8 ISO Speed 640

A drawing I did for a tee, thought I would upload it as a print / card as well. Hand drawn, coloured in photoshop CS2.

A portrait of my daughter, Perrin (15). We had some fun doing this, we were going for a kind of classical Grace-Kellyish look, not sure if we got there but I do think Perrin is lovely.

Just another daisy, this one from my mother's garden, in black and white. Camera Model Canon EOS 500D

This is a drawing that Tane (8) did for me, and that I coloured by hand and in photoshop. They are (from left to right) Tane, Grace, Perrin and Mila, my lovely daughters. Grace has asked for this as a T shirt.

Pattern and color, my favorite things.

Designed with phone cases in mind, an abstract exploration of colour, paint, pattern & geometry.

My little mermaid with some friends... This was just a snapshot from an aquarium outing, but I liked how it turned out. : )

So much joy in playing with colour. I love it.
