Day 5 #ArtAdventCalendar A charcoal drawing of my two cats. I liked the way they were lying together, almost like an infinity symbol.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 4 Storm Clouds Gathering A small mixed-media piece made with collage, acrylic paint, and black pencil. I really like all the dramatic sky in this one. I can imagine myself in the the landscape, and wonder if I was about to get completely drenched when the storm began. #art

Christmas festivities in Bruntsfield and Morningside this evening! Many traders opening late, join the fun 🎅

Here's today's #artadventcalendar. I hope I’m getting the hang of it. This painting is derived from the tip of the Christmas tree nebula. I call it the celestial goddess.

Day three of #ArtAdventCalendar. Many moons ago, I used to paint stones. I’d sketch out an idea and then slowly transfer it onto a selected pebble. Here’s an example of one of my concept sketches and the finished stone.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 3 Being on the coast, looking out to sea always calms me down, even in stormy weather. From the Shore is a small painting on heavy card, using #mixedmedia including collage, gouache, coloured pastels, acrylic paint and house paint. #art #paintings #seascape #expressiveart

Dec 2 #artadventcalendar Another 'forgotten' thing from a random sketchbook. My dog's favourite toy last year. Monkey was past his best: mangled, stuffing leaking out. He got his portrait done before he went to soft toy heaven! #drawing #colouredpencil #sketchbook #artyear #monkey #toy

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 2 Sketchbook cat using mixed media, including white gouache and coloured acrylic inks. #cats #sketches #painting #mixedmedia #visualart #tabbycats #expressiveart #artists #scottishart #arteveryday #julialaing #Marco

Photos of my lovely Dad, sit on my Mum's bookshelf. Hard to believe he would have been 86 today, and apart from in dreams and pictures, I've not seen his face for 38 years. Loss gets more bearable over the years but forever changes you. Happy birthday Dad. #memories #loss

Good morning! #BlueSkyArtShow is all about #warmth, so I thought this would fit the bill. It's a sketchbook page where I was playing around with gouache paint and coloured acrylic inks. The overall effect is very warm and in my mind I'm transported back to carefree 1970s summers. #art #sketchbook

I love how colourful and cheery they are, Julia!
