Trading Card - Pink Luttrell Dragon
Here is another scribal trading card I painted earlier in the year. The painting is done on a commercially produced card with Winsor and Newton gouache.
The dragon/monster is from the Luttrell Psalter - https://www.bl.uk/onlinegallery/ttp/luttrell/accessible/introduction.html

Tie-On Sleeves of Red and Gold WIP
I am still trying to work through my UnFinished Object pile. I pulled these sleeves out this week; they have been unfinished since 2019 and I had completely forgotten about them! What a nice surprise to find them when I was looking for interfacing for a mundane sewing project. The fabric is lovely and vibrant (the photo doesn't really do them justice).
The sleeves have been cut out and edged and have the cotton lining with them. They just need to be hand finished, hemmed and have eyelets put in to be wearable, so that is my next project to work on.
