Images from here

The wood shed is low on stock, summer is on its way!
Flowers that we planted are growing and the lemon balm is growing again :-)

 I've abandoned the summer house lately in favor of working in the dining room. It's a pain when I have to clear things away but over all I prefer working in here, near the kettle for tea and it's a nice sunny room.
 I bought this crochet blanket for Arthur cat but he doesn't like to use it, so instead it's covering a seat in the kitchen.
I like the colours here, grey,white, pink and green..The downstairs floor is still not done, hopefully in the next few months we will have the carpets up downstairs and grey floor boards throughout the house.

How have your days been? I had coffee with a very good old friend, it was wonderful and so nice to catch up. I also spent hours getting lost in the Worcestershire area trying to find the Little Buckland Gallery. My fault entirely, my sense of direction is awful and I had notes but no map or satnav... I'm so daft..!

I took two prints to the gallery for an upcoming exhibition called 'The colour of spring' which starts this week on Wednesday 28th March. I took my 'Yellow Birdie' print and a magpie image which is a variation on my 'Two for Joy' Print. I will be listing this version in my Etsy shop very soon though as I like it so much! :-)


What do you think? Bright and cheery?! If your in the Cheltenham and Worcestershire area pop over to the Little Buckland Gallery to check out the exhibition. Heres the website for the gallery:

It's been a while....

I've been meaning to make this happen for a while..This morning I woke up early and made it happen..Early morning drawing..Wonderful..My sketchbook is brimming with notes and doodles for work that never quite happens at the moment..

I'm finding it so hard to make time for drawing and making..This makes me so sad. I think I need to do some serious re-jigging in my life to make room.. I need to plan in regular art and creative time..

Do any of you plan in creative time to your day/week? I'm imagining that i'll need to work on a few hours here and a few there as I just don't have a whole evening or day to spare theses days..I'd like to hear how other people with busy lives manage.


'Two for joy' 2012

I hope your all having a good weekend. I spent the day helping a friend search for fabric for her wedding dress, we were looking for tweed, linen and lace and found some lovely fabrics that may hopefully make a very unique, beautiful dress for my friends November wedding..Very exciting!

Speak soon folks ***
