I am not sure if my graphics can accurately be
described as clip art but the graphics included here may certainly be used for this purpose. Last year I had a
couple of requests to use my flower paintings as graphics for greetings cards
for family and friends and to raise money for charity. Therefore I thought it
might be useful to include some images here for free download for the above
purposes and for anyone wanting some decorative or fun clip art.
All are mostly hand drawn and painted
but with some editing in a variety of graphics programmes. They
can be resized in any graphics programme but they do not resize
so well if pasted directly into your word processor documents or
web pages. It is best to resize first in your graphics
programme. They are more suitable for web pages but can be used
for documents but
the quality is not so good when resized. If you would like copies at a
higher resolution more suitable for documents I will pleased to send you
a file scanned at a higher resolution but you will need to edit to your own
requirements.
The links on the left will take
you to a small selection of hand drawn clip art, caricatures of
sheep, paintings and drawings of flowers and trees also graphics
for clipart created from my sister's patchwork and appliqué
designs.
Please note: some of these graphics are
only available with a white background. However if you have the necessary expertise you
are welcome to alter them as transparencies if it is possible to so. The
sheep clipart is however perhaps more suited to a while background.
There are two sizes to choose from: click on the links for a larger image. Save to your own hard drive by right clicking
and choose "save picture as" from the drop down menu. I think there is a similar
procedure for Mac users, sorry I don't know precisely.
I am a novice concerning computer graphics and I have no idea about the
suitability of these graphics for the aforementioned purposes and my graphics
programme used to create most of these images which I could never fully master
is quite old: Corel Draw 7. These images are not perfect. Therefore they may
need some editing to optimise them. If there are any problems please let
me know and if you have any hints or tips to improve these and other images I
would appreciate your expertise.
Also if you have your own images
which you would like to share for free distribution I will be happy to
include them.
I hope to include more graphics in due course. In the meantime you
are welcome to use my
flower paintings
and
drawings as clip art but of course they
will require editing in a graphics programme for such things as
speckling and resizing.
All images are the copyright of Christine A Marriott.
All image are for free distribution and are for charitable or
personal use only for any other purpose please
contact me.
Please do not link
directly to my graphics: this is bandwidth theft. Download the graphic
onto your own hard drive.
Thank you.
Please note:
There have been problems opening three
of the sheep graphics files after downloading. Hopefully
this has been rectified. However if this is not the case or
there are other problems please let me know. This is a
very big website for one person to manage and to keep track
of problems so letting me know of any problems here or
elsewhere on my website will be most appreciated thank you.
