"I can see clearly now the rain has gone", Transparency Drawing. Posca pen on acetate inspired by @ickle.jane 🙌 check out Jane's page because she originally had the idea of drawing onto acetate and photographing it, which inspired me to draw my own - her drawings look way much better than mine! 🙈 Acetate is a nice surface but quite tricky to draw on and photograph in the elements! I'm going to try again with a different drawing, in better light and on a windless day! I hope to get better results next time. Thanks for the inspiration and permission to use your idea, Jane 🤗😍 acetate from @kemblegallery Swipe 👉 to see how I photographed it. . . . . . . #sophynixon #sophynixonillustrator #sophydrawswhileclaudesnores #illustration #art #drawingonacetate #transparencydrawing #poscapens #ickle.jane #inspired #artistinspired #photographyanddrawing #claudetheboston #bostonsofinsta #kemblegallery #walkies #artpleinair #extremedrawing #shincliffe #durhamriverbanks https://www.instagram.com/p/BmyLabXhq4G/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7acdluq54jyh

I can post this now it's been received. 🤗 A card I sent to the fabulous @barnapkins and @colleenbrea in celebration of their newborn, River. Hope you are all doing well. 🤗 Featuring their Boston, Frito, baby and ma boy Claude. . . . . . . *Interesting and pointless fact the term "human baby" was inspired by the BBC Radio 4 Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Hexagonal Phase, where Zaphod Beeblebrox calls Arthur Dent "human, baby"... This somehow inspired this card... My mind works in mysterious ways... #sophynixon #sophynixonillustration #sophydrawswhileclaudesnores #fritotheboston #fritobaby #claudetheboston #maboyclaude #bostonterriercult #bostonterriersforever #bostonboys #bostie #bostonterriersofinsta #newbaby #newbabycard #newarrival #celebratenewlife #illustration #handdrawncard #bbcradio4 #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy #zaphodbeeblebrox #hexagonalphase #arthurdent #humanbaby

Day 2: Message: @justacard Instagram Challenge campaign. What the just a card message means to me: Caring about where you shop. Supporting independents means you make a huge difference to them, even if you buy "just a card" it all adds up. I really care about my customers and I strive to give them the best service because I am passionate about my work. Know this, if you have purchased a product from me, you're awesome because you're helping to keep Claude fed and clothed. For this, Claude will always love you and I know you guys love Claude! ✌ . . . . . . . . . . #sophynixon #sophydrawswhileclaudesnores #sophynixonillustration #justacardcampaign #justacard #shopsmall #smallbusiness #independents #independentartist #independentbusiness #claudetheboston #bostonterrier #shopsavvy #carewhereyoushop #shopindependent #shophandmade #buyhandmade

Day One: YOU for the @justacard instagram challenge. Photo: stall for the Thoughtful Night Market event. For those of you who don't already know me - I am an independent artist & illustrator who lives and works in Durham City in the UK with my Boston Terrier, Claude. I love drawing and try to draw everyday. I especially enjoy drawing my #sophyandclaudediaries comic, which I post on my IG page. I also run an online Etsy Shop and teach an Art Class for adults. I really enjoy running my own business and hanging out with Claude. I also really enjoy working part-time for an independent Art Shop and Gallery, so I'm all for supporting our independents! 🤗 . . . . . . . #sophynixon #sophydrawswhileclaudesnores #sophynixonillustration #justacard #supportsmallbusinesses #supportindependent #independentartist #independentbusiness #instachallenge #shopsmall #thecrafthood #thoughtfulnightmarket #thoughtfoundation #illustrator #artist #stallholder #etsyseller
