I loved the Sktchy inspiration photo for this portrait of Livey’s toddler and I really wanted to play a little bit with his shadow. When I was drawing it definitely wanted to be a bird monster of some kind so that’s what it became.
I drew this on an iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil using the Procreate app.
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.
