Ah yes, remember the QE2












Shots from the telly - QE2's last voyage
and some 60's dancing on board

All white now












Had to paint our objects white
draw or photograph them from different angles
Thinking about white rabbits
and Arctic hares
and shadows on the wall

Feed me Seymour












Seagulls
I think there is a theme occurring.
Some black headed gulls too
Don't see them inland much
probably less vicious than your common or garden ones
but don't tell either I said so

Monday 23 February 2009

Just another manic Monday

Trying (very!)
not to be too unladylike
but...
had a bit of an upset tummy recently
Things seem to be
shall we say
settling down a bit
Think the swimming is doing wonders for me
that and all the fresh veggies I've been eating
Can feel a new lease of life coming on
Spring is in my step now

Cor glove a duck











Been out and about with the duck
Hand in glove
Found a lost soul on the way
Think it may be mine

Sitting pretty

Focus would have been better if I had used the flash
but then he wouldn't have sat up and posed
the little darling
(Suki is on the bed close by)

A waltzing we will go


















My mind is still in the bush

Australian Bush that is

here's some snaps from my hallway

it's a calendar from Oz

Watercolours

not sure who

but I cut out and framed them all

as I said before somewhere, maybe

a part of my heart is left behind in Australia

once bitten

never forgotten

The Shadows on the Wall

Bit tired tonight
midweek blues maybe
Going to have an early night
Luvverly present of pressed leaves
Deeelight full
Different old oak trees
Red Oak I think
but I always get it wrong
names that is
amongst other things

Harmony at home











Cuddled cats and left for work this morning
Took my camera
caused a bit of a furr roar
gave Suki a little Teddy Bear Angel
I keep pushing the mithering litle "darling" off the bed in the morning
and well, you can only take so many big doe eyed looks
so I tried to make amends
Sid - is now (once again) feeling unloved
I tell you
It's a delicate balancing act

I am same

Peeking out from my cave
once more
a flash of inspiration passes by...
I want my colours to dance on the fabric
looping, curling and rolling

reaching out to the stars
in the indigo night

We are all warmed by the same sun
lit by the same moon
breathe the same air
and swim in the same water

Time and Space

















We have been given an object each

I got a leather glove

(a challenge?)

looking at the surrealists and their art

Have to draw or photograph our object in lots of unusual ways/places

Am on a Valentine's day theme today

I got some cystal earrings

and a crystal heart
