Love Nature...PPF

Well today I'm feeling a little spaced out, as I've been prescribed strong antibiotics.

I'm not sure, but I may have made a mistake by reading the extensive list of possible side effects.

I hardly slept at all last night and my stomach is definitely off today! 

Enough of that...but I'll certainly let you know if the hallucinations kick in!

Last week I shared a snippet of my drawing, so I'm happy to say that I actually finished it and have started another. 

I can't decide whether to paint it myself or use it for others to colour and share their interpretations. 

How cool would that be?

What's your view on the colouring craze for adults?

Do you think that the craze has ran it's course?

I'm not sure if people are still interested in this creative stress reliever or not?

Whilst drawing I plugged myself in to some brilliant music... (basically to drown out the football commentary... with the odd expletive from my hubby) and spent a wonderful evening drawing whilst looking out over the sunset lit fields. 

I'm going to use the English Premiership matches for my creative time, because it certainly made a perfect evening for everyone.

It's a win win situation. 

Everyone is happy!

I haven't shared any watercolour paintings with you lately, so here's a painting that I created as part of Tracey Fletcher King's Delicious Paint online class.

I had such a great time, plus learning brilliant tips along the way, that I've decided I'll revisit the course...it's available for life once you enrol. 

How brilliant is that!

Tracey is an exceptional teacher and so generous with her time and brilliant talent.

If you are interested in joining in too, then here's the details.

Classroom is now open and you can enrol here... Delicious Paint

Just in case you're wondering...I'm not being paid in any way for promoting this course...not even a gold star from the teacher!

But for now I think I'm in need of a long blink...zzZZZzzzZzzz

As usual I'm linking up with the Paint Party Friday gang.

I'm always happy to see you and will hopefully pop in to your place soon.

Have a great time this weekend.

The Eye Of The Tiger...PPF

Well he's finally finished.

'The Eye Of The Tiger'

Apologies that he seems to have hogged my PPF limelight for a few weeks now. 

I will definitely move on to another project for next week.

I decided to have a little play at producing some art every morning...which is a little scary as who knows where this might lead. 

I think it's better that I actually produce some artwork regularly... and hopefully that'll help with my creativity.

These girls (the cows) appeared and yes it is a little bizarre that I should draw cow butts, but there is a story line... promise!

The reason is that we visited a local dairy farm's new venture the other day... it's a cafe attached to the milking sheds of a local farm.

They advertise that you can go and witness the cow being milked, whilst having a cuppa and cake.

But I never expected the cafe to actually have a huge glass windows overlooking the whole proceedings. 

Fantastic for kiddie-winks to witness the cows wandering in to the stalls, being milked and then on their way again. I thought the whole thing was ingenious and will definitely be going back.

Well they do sell homemade baking and fantastic cheesecakes after all.

There's also a soft play area for the children and a brilliant farm shop and butchers!

It seems that I might actually be turning into a real country girl!

What with our chickens and drawing cow's.

Where will this end?

As I mentioned on Facebook...I didn't really intend for this video clip to be out there, but I was persuaded. Therefore, I didn't want my blog followers to miss out... so here it is.

(It's taken me about three hours to put this up because I heard that the last video wasn't available for everyone to see. Hopefully this YouTube video will work...I'd appreciate it if you could let me know if it works)

The chooks ran the quickest time yesterday...so I think I better get fit and up my game, otherwise they'll be way ahead of me :D

A little fun to end this weeks PPF link.

I hope it gives you a giggle. 

Have a great weekend and thanks for your visits and for Paint Party Friday for continuing to inspire.

Ink Artwork...PPF

Hello everyone, 

I'm struggling with the lost of my best furry friend Muffy at the moment and I'm not sure when I will be ready to blog again (if ever) but I thought I needed to come over to thank everyone for their beautiful words, kind comments, and loving messages...plus cards and flowers. 

They have helped enormously...so thank you.

This ink drawing was created on the day of Muffy's operation.
I couldn't settle to do much, but to take up the ink pen seem the best option.

With these ink drawings my mind wanders away somewhere...I'm not sure where, which on that particular day was just what I needed.

(It's a grey day here today...which doesn't help with photographing)

Yesterday, I had an hour free and thought I'd revisit my tiger ink drawing that I started a while back. There's still quite a long way to go with this, but it's prefect to just nip in and out of when I feel I need to create some artwork.

(wip)

Thank you friends for being there.
