Cottage Garden ATCs

Experimenting with colour and pattern, I made a bunch of ATCs with a cottage garden theme. I like them, but they definately felt like experimentation or works in progress. So I whipped up a second batch and added some bumblebees (and one cabbage moth).

I'm pretty happy with where these are headed. Definitely not there yet, but I like the sweetness and day-dreamyness of them.


These make me want better paint. I've always been pretty comfortable with shitty quality acrylic paints... but perhaps it's time for an upgrade.


But I do like the looseness of them. The splotchy smooshy-ness of the flowers and fuzziness of the bumblebutts.


These fellows are not for sale. I'm probably going to trade them, making them true ATC's.


What have you been working on? Have you been keeping busy? Hope you're safe and well!
