Illustration Friday 'Dessert'


What could be better than a huge slice of cake? Ok, maybe a few things! But I do love to bake and make cake collages. This is my submission for Illustration Friday. It's not so new but I've been so busy with preparing for my new job as an art teacher for some time now. I officially start on Wednesday and I'm hoping once I settle in I'll have time to create again. I've found some great teaching resources on the web but if anyone has any suggestions they will be gratefully received :)
