Hey-Ho! LazyDays

Mum said it's raining outside. But I don't really care!

Experimenting

Not to sure about this painting, I know its not finished. I think I've said before that I'm a great fan of Brian Froud. His work just captivates me. But I'd really like to create an original of my own. I have always been able to replicate, but not from my own imagination.
At our Local Adult Education centre they have just announced a 10 week illustration course due to start in April and feel that I could benefit from these tutorials. I have lots of ideas floating around in my head, I just need a little encouragement to help transfer them onto paper. Have been so amazed since becoming an addicted blogger, at the number of fantastic artists there are, a few names come to mine, Jackie Morris, Danielle Barlow, Julia Guthrie, Cat from darklingwoods, Karen , Kathleen Coy
to name but a few. I admire you all.
Well I'm off dog walking now, hopefully dodging any showers, as Onyx hates the rain!
Blessings to All.X

Making the Most of the Sun

Mowsie is a Sun Worshiper, as I think most cats are. I cant take the claim for this lovely photo though. My daughter is currently studying photograpghy at Chichester College and I think she has captured him well. There's definitely a skill in taking photos and having a good eye and I feel she has that. Although I am saving hard at the moment to update my camera, so hopefully I might improve my skills.
