Iris  Iris. 26. London. Artist, thinker & time waster. This blog contains everything and nothing. More nothing than something because more often than not I am afraid of sharing or doing.

I have been busy busy for a change! Usually I am just lazy lazy. I have been cutting down on my World of Warcraft time lately (and unfortunately also violin time, I’d like to play more but am feeling hugely unmotivated currently), not really as a conscious choice but I just find I am [...]
I am working on a blog post listing my 10 favourite art supplies. I need to take some pics to jazz it up a bit and then I’ll post it, hopefully within a couple of days.
In the meantime I wanted to share these two journal pages I did this past week. Although I [...]
After many many years (2, pretty much) of not creating any art videos, I finally made one again!
When I moved house (the first time, and the second time as well), I finally got an art desk. I’d wanted this for a long time: a dedicated space to do my art and leave [...]
After creating Hetty & Dimitri‘s painting I wanted to do art more regularly, but found doing paintings quite intimidating (especially if they’re just ‘for me’, rather than a present). So I decided to get back into my art journal. I neglected art journalling for over a year due to judgements swirling around in my [...]
When I was in my second year of uni I shared a flat (in Lewisham *shudders*) with Hetty. In the same year she met Dimitri and on 31 July 2010 (Saturday just gone) she got married to him! I went over to Gibraltar where the wedding was being held (they live there) and spent [...]
I’m currently taking an online art class which is run by my friend Tam. It’s called World of Whimsy and it’s a lot of fun!
As much as I enjoy painting I’m not that prolific creating it (not because I don’t want to, but usually because of self doubt and other such issues). [...]
It’s been sitting on my desk for a few days, awaiting beeswax and I still need to paint the sides.
I scanned it this time, rather than taking a picture of it and the colours are soooo much better this way. The only thing is, that scanning it in three parts and putting [...]
Soooo I haven’t updated since August! I’m so bad at sticking with something (like blogging). I’m so good at starting stuff, just not great at finishing, it’s the story of my life I swear!
So I’ve been thinking that I want this blog & site to be a bit different. OK I go [...]
Pirate Girl, originally uploaded by rrreow.
ARRRRRR!! I am quite pleased with this one, apart from of course the mandatory acerbic self criticism and doubt that plagues me. *sigh*
No I actually like this piece, I just feel a bit crappy (and that taints my whole view of the world and [...]
I actually tried my hand at this ‘layering’ business. I’m pretty pleased with the result!
The idea for this painting started when I found a bunch of slides and wanted to do something with them. I sketched the girl and sheep when I was on holiday in Wales (how appropriate).
