Hidden Gems of Classic Cinema
I have completed a bit more on this piece. A bit of a close up of the paper boat, which I am very happy with. Tossing up whether or not to add a neck and a shoulder with a tattoo of an anchor on it...I might just pencil it in and see how it looks.... Continue Reading →
So where the hell would I put this green chicken rocker ~ don't know. What the hell would I do with this thing? ~ ride it I suppose. What would it match, it's green...~ Nothing. But I want it real bad, you bet your sweet frilly knickers I do! Seriously who would think of making... Continue Reading →
So just finished watching HIMYM, season finale, loved it, loved it, loved it. My 19-year-old son summed it up by yelling at the screen "OMG it's happening, it's all coming together!" (we are not quiet reserved people in our house). I think I watched the entire episode with a big silly smile on my face. ... Continue Reading →
Just started this one today. I never like a picture in its first stages, so I am not too excited by this pic, but it has potential. A lot of hours and a lot of detail to go. I will try to do a bit more tomorrow, but in the mean time...I am off to... Continue Reading →

So excited to see The Great Gatsby. I haven't read the book, haven't seen any screen version, so I don't know what to expect. But if Baz did it I really need to see it.

Oh I had to laugh the other day, going through some old school stuff and found my sketches from the subject loosely titled "Fashion". I'm guessing it is aprox 1985. I'm sure we could probably guess just by looking at these two pics. This one is my favourite. I was a little put out... Continue Reading →
Once upon a time there was a little girl. She loved to be outside when all her friends wanted to watch the television. She didn't care at all. She, in fact, preferred it. She preferred to be alone in the wild wild woods. She proclaimed the woods her realm. She walked those woods like she... Continue Reading →

I always sing this to myself (and sometimes, annoyingly, outloud, as I do not have a musical ear...so I am told...but they do say I improve greatly after the second glass of wine) whenever I see anything that belongs under the sea. Now you can sing it, in bed, when you are trying to sleep... Continue Reading →

So disappointed this morning 😦 Where are my kangaroos? My big mob of roos? Maybe it was just a little chilly for them this morning. Every morning, on the school run, we drive past a big mob of roos. Probably about 40 or 50ish. I drive down the hill and off to the right is... Continue Reading →
