Celtic Princess


I had originally used my daughter's face as a reference but she didnt like being the subject (yet again), so I changed the face. She's blue because I wanted to make it look like she has woad dye painted on to her face.

Senses Beyond My Window

Crescadoing trills
A splish splashing tinkling glass
Galloping of neighs

Sweet sap of greening
Wafts from brushed past rosemary
damp dog, and bog pond

Sun motes, dazzling hues
Bulging bulbs, from rich dark soil
Crocus peeking through

The West Wind


A quick little sketch I did in Corel Painter, using the chalk, pencils and water colour brushes/pens......... Just playing around with some ideas...........
Funny isn't it, how theres never a policeman around when you need one, yet as soon as you drop a crisp on the floor a whole flying squad appears? Or there's the scenario where you are waiting for the number 22 bus to turn up and it dosen't for ages, then a fleet of them come trundling down the street? Well that's a bit like my postings. Nowt for yonks, then a rake of them to bore you to death. Enjoy.

Blimey The Sun's Out!

I kid you not, the sun is actually shining outside! I was able to go out earlier and hang up a tonne of freshly washed laundry onto the line, without fear of rain, and with the hope of having a good darn chance of it actually drying. The dogs are now trying to wrestle each other out the way to hog the sun rays that are filtering through the window. Funny enough, I actually have a stinking head cold though. Sods law that is...........
