    Now this is the first time I’ve noticed you do a colour/b&w mix, Anita, and it’s very effective! Love the rotund shape of the ladies and the incredible trademark details (and hidden critters), as always! ;o)

  • AnitaInverarity replied 26 days ago

    Thank you so much Krys, I had to bite the bullet really with Kokeshi’s being so colourful. So happy you like it xxx

    As I may have said before: RED is the most noticeable colour by the human eye and can be identified if there is even the smallest amoutn in a picture. Therefore its a very eye catching colour especially in contrast to black or white.
    Love the way ‘Mother Kokeshi’ has ‘caught’ the daydreamering duo.
    Love the bird on one tree and butterfly in the other,
    Love the sakura on the kimono. Sweet detail in your work as ever.

    ‘BRIAN, mate, BRIAN , , , dont say I dont do nuffin for ya !! You limelight stealer !’
    ‘Brian ! – say thank you to the nice lady for drawing you into the picture.’
    All the best with your continued project, Anita xx.

  • AnitaInverarity replied 26 days ago

    Thank you so much Paul :)))) LOL The return of Brian !! xxxx

    about movie stars and that first big break in a film that made them a star . . .

    Another illustraton fit for a book.

    SO CUTE!!!!!!!! this is awesome Anita, but what astounds me, is that I have just started a series of drawings of both Kokeshi dolls and Babuska/Matryoshka dolls.
    Do you think inspirations and ideas can float around the bubble and get inside our heads at the same time??? Spooky.

  • AnitaInverarity replied 24 days ago

    Thank you sweetie- Oh definately, I see a LOT of Kokeshi and Babuska just now- its in the air. I think its synchroncity, collective conscious or someting, its wonderful :))))) Cant wait to see your Kokeshi wheeeeeeee xxxx
