playing around with colour

here is a character I created just for fun. I think he may end up a boys school black sheep that has few friends and is bullied by the normal sporty kids. But he will prevail somehow with his devious mind and sharp intellect, maybe.
anyway I just wanted to play around with digital water colouring this is my first attempt and I hope it gets better

little slice of Paradise



I just wanted to share with every one how lucky I am. the house that we live in has a public reserve which we access through a gate in our back yard.
It has lots of grass and trees and open space. There are always lots of different types of Australian birds flying around, calling out to one another and my two sons play out there often.
there is a concrete path that leads from the road all the way up the reserve and my sons use that to walk to school.
I find it very relaxing to go out and look in awe at the magic of nature as the wind blows through the trees and the birds flutter about doing their thing.
To be surrounded by green leafy trees and lots of grass is a blessing. I just wanted to share what a nice spot I landed on when we bought this house.
