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.
