Roll on! AEDM #4 and my creative space!



Apologies in advance for this really quick entry as my busy day looms ahead! I'm back to work after a luxurious 2 weeks off...however i'm one of the lucky ones with a job I LOVE..so it's no great shakes!
This quick pen on paper doodle was inspired by "Whip it"! Have you seen the film?...really sweet wee coming of age film featuring a Rollerskating Derby revival! Firstly I never knew such an event existed and secondly my nostalgia for the roller boots I never had as a kid was re-instated!! ....
is that a big "awwwww" I can hear you sigh?! :)
I want to paint something with a bit of hootin' hollering' rollerskatin'! ....but for now this little rollerboot is all I have to show :)
Go see some more art creations here, and some other creative spaces here!
Ps. thankyou so much for all your fantastic comments you left yesterday! Makes me smile HUGELY! I am hoping to spend some time visiting you all tomorrow xx
PPs. can you see the mistake on the wing at the back?! I've only this minute noticed! Oops!

    I'm looking forward to some more hootin' hollerin' rollerskating fun! (And it took me forever to figure out what you were talking about with the wing!)
