  • Ella is a sultry little vixen deciding which heart to grab next. I adore her magnificent striped dress and gigantic fluttery eyelashes – who could resist!

  • I was exploring different ways of keeping the focus on the centre of the page and ended up with this little sweetheart. She’s a flirty little milk maid who’s dripping off the page. I adore her sultry look and pouty lips. The original was illustrated on recycled cardboard with pencil, charcoal and ink. Enjoy! xxx scarlett

  • Thank you to Linmarie / for these very beautiful words which she wrote after seeing Safe in the Branches:- My skin is auburn / My eyes are autumn / My lips a taught brown frown / My fingers are branches of a tree / against my expression of being let down. You never saw me when I stood right next to you / I walked on egg shells just to please you / You looked right through my soul, missed all I had to offer / I had no where else to go. So the forest became my place to reflect, hide and be safe / I became one with nature, because she heard my song / She welcomed me, wrapped me in warmth / And told me ” It has been to long”. Music fills me with wind and storms / The forest has become my new arms / Because you didn’t, I moved along / You should have listened, I am now strong.

  • Grade B pencil on smooth catridge paper This Drawing was inspired by the following song:- The Lady Lies / by Tony Banks The man steps out in the moonlight / At the sound of a scream from below. / He thinks he is a warrior / So he picks op his sword and goes. From the mouth of the monster / He rescues the maiden fair. / But we know she’s a demon / Come to lure him to the demon’s lair. Through restless foliage and tall trees he leads / To a house in a clearing, a place in her fear she calls home. ‘Come with me, I need you, / I fear the dark and I live all alone. / I’ll give you wine and food too / And something special after if you like.’ And though his body bids him / To enter in with her, / There was something in her manner / That his mind could not ignore. For who knows what magic takes place in his world? / So he just thanks her kindly preparing to go on his way. ‘Come with me, I need you, / I fear the dark and I live all alone. / I’ll give you wine and food too / And something special after if you like. Come to my garden, / Taste the fruits and the spices of love. / You can’t resist me, / I’m the kind that your dreams tell you of.’ ‘So glad you could make it / We had everything arranged. / So glad you saw fit to pay a call.’ Some men never listen, / Others never learn, / But why this man did as he did / Only he will ever know. He knew he was walking / Into a wailing trap, / Neatly set up for him / With a bait so richly wrapped. So he went inside there to take on what he found / But he never escaped them, for who can escape what he desires? ‘Come with me, I need you, / I fear the dark and I live all alone. / I’ll give you wine and food too / And something special after if you like.’

  • Graphite (2b to 8b) on A3 UPM Digi 190gsm white paper. I donated a portrait as a fundraiser for my son’s kindy. I’m so pleased that this family won the raffle – the little girl, aged 4, is just adorable and her Mum has done lots for the kindy. It was a huge undertaking though – took me ages. I’m not really happy with the scan as I think you lose detail (but this always seems to be the case!). Winner of Avatar Challenge in “Pencil Drawing” Dec 09. Top Ten in “Best Works on Paper” Challenge Nov 09. Featured in the groups: Graphite Pencil Artists, Art Up Close and Love For Your Children, Nov 09 and Fine Arts, Dec 09.
