87 - Balloon Character Sketches

87 - Balloon Character Sketches

I'm more excited about these drawings of the balloon characters, than the balloon character installations themselves. I guess because I'm doing so much drawing right now.

Carved pencil eraser rubber stamp drawings

Using rubber stamps was a fast way of depicting the repeating elements. Where they overlap they appear translucent which is very balloon like.

Macmillan Cancer Support

This year I challenged myself to write one blog post per day, for 365 days. The project began on 3 March 2025.

I have linked this challenge to a charity fundraiser, because I want to look outside as well as inwards and contribute to society. It also holds me accountable and adds motivation to write everyday.

Macmillan is an organistation that offers powerful help to anyone (in the UK) who has been affected by cancer.
