ID line drawing of Guinness Record Holder for breaking water melons with her thighs.
She is sat on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles and has just popped a watermelon between her thighs, the pieces of which are flying through the air! She is wearing a crop top, shorts and trainers. On either side of her is a whole watermelon, waiting for her to deal with them!

Painting for this week's art project for @all4inclusion run by @disabled_life_2b_lived This weeks theme is Buildings

#BarbaraHulmeFineArtist #WatercolourPortraits #PortraitArtist #DisabledArtist #DisabilityInclusion #ContemporaryArt #ArtForSale #MentalHealth #InternationalArtist #ArtTutor

ID For this week's theme I have drawn a Boot and made that into a building, thinking of the old woman who lived in a shoe as a theme. So far I have got the undercoat of the shades o the boot done and the sole of the boot. The boot also features random windows. I am still pondering if or what I should put in the background.
