I set myself a challenge to draw and colour a plait with a difference. There are many different plait patterns that act as a guide for the artist, but over the years and try as I might, I get confused with the pattern of drawing a detailed plait and abandon it due to frustration.
For this drawing and after many hours of following online tutorials to try and get the plait pattern to stick in my head ... I had a light bulb moment and got it... and Bubbly Love was drawn....
That's what I love about art whether it be, drawing, colouring or any type of craft, initially a new technique will elude us, but with perseverance (well, a lot in the case of my plait saga!) we have an eureka moment and jump for joy at the discovery we can do it!!
