I painted this pattern in acrylic and used a pin head to print on each dot. I like to add painted elements and patterns to contrast with the smooth clean lines of digitally created shapes. Other textures have been created on textured art paper with a fairly dry paintbrush, toothbrush and edges of card loaded with paint and 'printed' onto paper.By Laila Hills

Such a bright, happy illustration Laila. It is really nice that you hand create the patterns you use within the digital image.
Very nice, Laila.
It reminds me that I did some illustrations to The Owl and the Pussycat when I was on my art foundation course. I've thought of having another go. I'll leave it a while though.
This is wonderful. I would love to use this illustration to make an appliqued crib quilt. It would be for personal use only and not for sale, although I would want to post the completed project on my blog (with credit to you and a link back to this page -- or whatever page you like).
Please let me know -- I won't do anything unless I hear from you.
