This is another commission from Joni, my second in two days. It’s exciting to get commissions but definitely a little anxiety-inducing too because I want clients to like what I produce for them. But I know I need to have a thick skin if I’m to make work to order. So I’m telling myself the most important thing is to do what I do – if people are commissioning me it’s because they like my work.
I painted this in a Laloran sketchbook with Zecchi Toscana watercolours and finished it with Prismacolor coloured pencils.

I love drawing things. These days I am rarely found without a pen, pencil or stylus in my hands. In my working life I spend a lot of time in meetings and classrooms, reading papers and strategies, so my home life provides a creative antidote to all that! I also have chronic pain, lots of it. I have scoliosis, fibromyalgia and CRPS, so my life is a balancing act, trying to balance work, which make me feel part of the real world, with pain, which is ever present, and art, which soothes my pain.
