'Chaffinches in Cherry Blossom' artwork by Lotti Brown

I don't see chaffinches often in my tiny countryside garden, but when I do I'm always happy to see the beautiful colours as chaffinches were one of my absolute favourites as a child and were often visitors to our family garden...

I create my art from pen and marker drawings...

Chaffinch drawings in Promarker and fineliner pens

Cherry blossom drawings in pen and marker

Cherry blossom branches drawn in pen and marker

I draw each bird and branch of cherry blossom separately as I then scan each drawing into the computer and create digitally with my drawings in Adobe Illustrator... do you want to see?

The drawings have been scanned into the computer and then imported into Adobe Illustrator...

Using my drawings to create background layers to give the artwork depth - plus more colour tweaks

I really love the fact that working digitally with my drawings gives me so much freedom to rearrange and tweak colours or even change my mind entirely, to come up with the artwork that I feel works best...
