Finished my Night Queen sketch. I can see her being a painting. #artistsoninstagram #VeritySmart
Only after photographing her before did I see she just needed a little bit extra. So I fiddled and now she feels finished. #veritysmart

February ATC over on @willowing and friends group. The theme was love and I interpreted that as the love for Mother Earth which seems especially significant for me right now.

Inspired by so many lessons I’ve taken recently most notably @laurahornart @florabowley and @lynzeelynx thoroughly enjoyed creating these two. #abstractart #abstractpainting #mixedmedia #intuitivepainting #artistsoninstagram
Finished two paintings after weeks of working through the Fresh Paint Course #artistsoninstagram #freshpaintcourse #abstractpainting #intuitivepainting
Did another melting pot painting from a class by @laurahornart and found it to be a very mindful exercise as well as a learning experience. Lots of takeaways from this painting. #themeltingpotclass #themeltingpot #mixedmedia #danielsmithwatercolors #sennelierpastels #carandacheneocolor2 #artistsoninstagram

Did the @emma_petitt_art session today and really enjoyed it. So loose and free. Was interesting to use these colours in combination. All outside my comfort zone. #artistsoninstagram #lbsummitlove
A lovely quick session with @toniburtartist but deeply powerful nonetheless. I really enjoyed doing this. So liberating. #artistsoninstagram #lbsummitlove #lifebooksummit

Week 32 – Heart Work with @alenahennessy 2/2 #lifebook2018 * This sending part of the lesson, whilst feeling more involved I enjoyed more and I’m much happier with the end result. * Like the first part of this two part lesson I got a lot from the process. #veritysmart #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #mixedmedia #intuitivepainting
Week 32 – Heart Work with @alenahennessy 1/2. This is one of those paintings where I like details and sections but not the entire painting in a single view. However I got a lot from the process and learnt a lot. #artistsoninstagram #lifebook2018 #veritysmart

Finished. I’m really pleased with the finished result. The only thing I’d do differently is work in bigger paper. Felt there was scope for more imagery but was limited by space. #lifebooklesson #songofme @willowing
Frida / Defiant. Started this yesterday for #internationwomensday and finished it this morning. Felt her defiance whilst creating this. Was very satisfying.

I’d forgotten (until recently after my last cards) how much fun it is to print stuff and physically see your creations. I enjoyed making these cards and despite their stylised simplicity they were still a challenge and taught me a lot. Not least of which was @procreate #artisttradingcards #willowingandfriends #cardswap #procreate #digitalpainting #digitalart #digitalillustration #winterthemecards #novemberswap #artistsoninstagram

My ATC offerings for Aprils theme “Nature” for the swap over at @willowing on FB. I am doing two swaps this time around for reasons too long winded to explain, suffice to say I enjoyed making two sets to trade with two lovely people in the group. Also made zines (see previous post) and done a little goody bag with collage pieces for each of them. #artisttradingcards #ATCswapextras #Extragift #Willowingandfriends #Flatlay #gypsophila #artistsoninstagram #VeritySmart

I thoroughly enjoyed making these and they’re a first among my ATCs in that there’s no collage or text. The theme is “magic” and the cards will be sent off tomorrow as part of the @willowing and friends Facebook monthly swap. #artismagic #magicofnature #magicintheforest #atc #artisttradingcards #artistsoninstagram #mixedmedia #janedavenportwatercolours #primamarketingwatercolor #watercolour #molotowpen #poscapens #inks #magic #willowingandfriends

Day 1 of @inktober and the first prompt is “ring”. I was drawn to the idea of nature rings in geology, the earth, mushrooms & toadstools (fairy ring) 🍄 I also saw this challenge as a prime opportunity to hone my @procreate skills as I haven’t used it much since downloading. Now I’m going to be using it every day for a month! Now that’s a challenge. #inktober #inktober2019 #artistoninstagram #veganartists #procreate

Day 2 of @inktober the prompt today is “mindless” (swipe for time lapse) which made me think of the mindless doodles we all do on any surface and I chose to create some pebbles for my doodles. Helped push me to learn the tools of @procreate and do things I hadn’t done before. #pebbledoodles #artistoninstagram #pebbleart #zentangles #inktober #inktober2019 #procreate #veganartists

Day 4 of @inktober and today’s prompt is “freeze” which I interpreted as a frozen heart crystallised. This was a bit more involved today as I was playing much more with brushes in @procreate and seeing what effects I could get whilst keeping it inky. I have included my sketch of the heart in the last pic so you can see what I based it off of as shown in the time lapse. #inktober #inktober2019 #veganartists #inktoberfreeze2019 #inktoberfreeze
