Motherhood

MEDIEVAL MAIDENS

A Celebration of Motherhood and the Devine
I drew this work when my son was quite young (he is now 16-2008)
I was experimenting with different patterns and pen work, so it is quite sketchy.
It kind of evolved into something that looks Medieval somehow.
The Hare is one of my magical creatures that I feel familiar with- Hares, Bears and Cats.

    Its totally brilliant!!! Sometimes artwork has a life of its own and all we do is encourage its creation ;D

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Very nice work. Love the circlular patterns you got going in the dress. Makes me want to get back to gettin’ down and dirty with the trusty ‘ol ink pen!

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    This is devine, your amount of detail amazes me. And I like the Medieval feel to it as well.

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Thank you so much. I am uploading a few older pieces until I finish new drawings- digging deep in the old sketch pads xxx

  • Lynette K.

    Lynette K.

    Oooh, cannot wait to see them. I like going though the oldies…I am doing that with my photography…hard to pick the ones to put up though…

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Its fun- sometimes you dont like things and hide them away for a bit, and then think oh OK I quite like that after seeing them again.
    My Skater, Warrior and Alice Tees were old designs revamped and I think I’ve only got one more worthy one now (then it will be back to new stuff) xxxxxx

    Just a delight to look at. The Medieval feel is magic – must have been a great time to have been in – many of us here on the Bubble seem drawn to that era….....
    As usual – Great Work my dear!!!!
    Carol xxx

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    It wasnt my intension to go with that style but I definately am drawn there- the music, the mead, the clothes (magical- very fairy tale).
    I can see that in your work Carol xxxxxxxxx

    Good Morning to you Anita, at least it’s morning here in the USA! I looked at more of your work last night and I am so happy that you contacted me because I LOVE your work. I struggle for years doing too many different things with my work, trying to find where I belonged. I believe I have found my way with permanent pen and markers. I don’t have my best and most recent pieces on here yet because I need a replacement software CD for my scanner. (I seem to have misplaced the one I had). I want you to know that I am firmly planting myself as a worshiper of your work. Have a great day today! I am off to the Headhunter!

  • AnitaInverarity

  • Susan Kimball

    Love your drawings and illustrations. I also have a degree in graphic design before computers but left the field over 20 years ago. I have returned to art after all that time. I would love to go more into illustration but in my area, not much is offered. But I can just enjoy your wonderful art. Susan

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Thank you for your lovely comment Susan- I too have renewed my interest after many years and try to keep creating now to relieve the pressures of my day job.
    I m quite excited by the online opportunities to show and sell art, but technically I am still a novice in this area.
    Your photos are lovely, keep illustrating for fun too (you never know what may happen). Hugs xxxxxx
