Water

My main inspiration in life is nature, I live near the sea so the theme for illustration friday this week of water is just right.  Water related patterns are used a lot in Japanese textiles, (another love of mine) so I drew some of them for this pattern which weirdly looks very 70s inspired.

swept

The river bed fascinates me and it was hard to photograph as it's constantly moving - the water swept leaves and debris along ... so I drew the image instead for illustration friday this week.

Cool

It's hot today and I'm sitting at my computer as usual - I'd love to be running though this fountain to cool down a bit!

For Yoon See

I've had a request to create a montage of splashing rain water drops. It hasn't rained here for a while so I took some shots of fast flowing water instead - with a few splashes - hope you like it Yoon See. Thanks for suggesting this, I had a great time doing it and when it rains I'll have another go.

Ripples

Save

It's 'save' this week on IF. So I think the above illustration is obvious. If you leave the tap on while you clean your teeth you waste 10 litres of water per minute!
