Priley Riley, Thank you, December 2020

As the year draws to a close, I'd like to thank those, known and unknown to me, who have bought from my Amazon and Redbubble stores.

Thank you also to those who share/ interact with my social media posts- your engagement is encouraging and allows me to reach more people with my art.

Priley Riley, Bearded Dragon Outline on Pastel Square, December 2020

 

My next design sticks with grouping drawings and including a simple square pattern for the background.

However for this design I have used the outline style of drawing and, because they are delicate compared to the silhouette drawings, I've used a more subtle colour scheme.

Currently available on Redbubble and Teespring.

Priley Riley, Bearded Dragon Swim Series, December 2020

I chose 4 of the pencil drawings of Fuji swimming to copy into Photoshop. I've kept the same style- a distinctive outline plus the markings along Fuji's back.

Combined, these 4 Photoshop drawings make up the cover photos used across my Redbubble and Teespring stores and social media pages.

They are also available on a range of products. Take a look below...

Priley Riley, Fuji Swim Series, October- December 2020

In October I quietly produced a series of 10 pencil drawings depicting Fuji swimming.

It's during her twice-weekly baths she so elegantly swims- she loves it! I drew her swimming to share the graceful positions she forms and to capture her personality, as not all bearded dragons take to the water like Fuji has.

These drawings have been a starting point for my bearded dragon merchandise designs. Updates on these designs to follow

Priley Riley, Meet Fuji, December 2020

Meet Fuji- the inspiration behind my bearded dragon designs!

On 6th July 2019 I visited the RSPCA. On arrival, they had one available bearded dragon and asked if I would like to hold her. She decided to sit on my shoulder- I think we chose each other! The very next day she was living with my husband and I.

Fuji has a big personality. Her favourite things are having her nose rubbed (during which she'll slowly close her eyes) and eating locusts, calci worms and exotic fruits. I named her Fuji because she's beautiful and majestic like the mountain.

I hope to capture her beauty and character in my drawings.

Priley Riley, Merch by Amazon application, November 2020

Priley Riley, A little intro 😊, November 2020

 

My name is Paula (artist name Priley Riley) and in 2016 I graduated from Loughbrough University with a BA in Fine Art. In 2017 I completed my masters in Fine Art at the Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton.

After graduating I found employment in the finance department of a large insurance company where in May 2020 I was promoted to Vendor Analyst. Since graduating I have also married my wonderful partner of 10 years, travelled to some amazing places (most notably South Korea and Japan), rescued my bearded dragon Fuji, and much more!

Whilst initially my time was taken up with work and organising my wedding, time saved by working from home and not having to commute during lockdown has allowed me to recently concentrate on my artwork.

My aim is to draw high quality designs for merchandise in Photoshop. My current depictions of exotic animals are inspired by Fuji. This merchandise is available to buy on Redbubble and Teespring. For updates on my work, you can follow Priley Riley Art on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
