Dear Friend

A very dear friend of mine has been very supportive throughout my terrible time with Cancer and I am quite grateful for that, not like my ex who was unsupported, untrustworthy and unfaithful to me. But now I feel much better as good things are coming my way for the New Year!! We had a lovely walk through the countryside it was amazing with such beauty covered in white snow glistening through the sun light and even the dogs loved it running through the snow what a day we had I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did?

Thanks for looking :)

Sculptor of a Mouse

It took about 3-4 days to create using this wonderful product "Super Sculpey" I absolutely love it it's fun to create and when your ready and satisfied with the look, you place it in the oven for about 15-25 minutes.

Once done after it has cooled down, you can spray it or hand paint the object using Acrylic or emulsion paints with a touch of clear varnish to give it a more "Porcelain look".

I will show you the overall look that you can capture on my next blog.

Drawing of a Whippet

It's been a busy week with Christmas coming and everything else to do, I thought I share one of my projects of a beautiful Whippet my pet dog "Zya" doesn't she look so divine with her glossy coat. Again it was done by using coloured pencils on a coloured A4 card and it took several days to do, but being a perfectionist I like to take my time...

Thanks for looking :)

Drawing

Hi, every one I would like to show you one of my recent drawing of my beloved dog who's a Chinese Crested she looked so sweet cuddling to her Reindeer in bed so I had to capture the image into a picture using colouring pencils on a A4 coloured sheet.

Doesn't she look so sweet!!!.....

Halloween Pumpkin

It's "HALLOWEEN NIGHT"....... and what are we all making a frightening  pumpkin, but remember if you need supervision from a parent when using sharp objects then it's better to get help with that.  

What you need is a Pumpkin

Sharp knife to cut the shapes

Spoon to scoop the inside 

Candle

Pumpkin....

Cutting to make a lid and scooping the contents out with a spoon.....

 Creating the scary face on the pumpkin making sure not to hurt yourself.....

The final presentation is at night with the candle inside glowing waiting for the "Trick or Treat"....It's all part of the fun have a wonderful time.

 All my love :)

Garden Ideas

As winter is drawing in I like to get so much done and I've started in the front where is needed since it hasn't been touched for a long time.  I will be showing you stages as I go along to transform a boring space to something interesting by placing big boulders to emphasise a "Spanish" style from back home.

From this....

And then the rest will be shown next time - to be continued....

Final Transformation

More pictures showing the final process...

Transformation

In most gardens you always have an area that you are not sure what to do with! After visualising and creating a layout theme.  Then it comes to the boring bit of clearing the rubbish ready for preparation it took several big bags and runs to the tip, but it gets to the exciting part of transferring something bland to a "wow" factor.

Here it shows several stages of the transformation;

Quick Sketch

I picked up one of my sketch pads and started to practice my watercolours, as I haven't used it since Uni! And I created this it didn't take long about 30 minutes;

Take care :)

Art Display

During one of my walks with my two beautiful dogs I came across this Art display and I believe it represents a dog similar to a friend of mine who has a very handsome boy a "greyhound".

Interesting don't you think.....

Thanks for reading my blog.......Have a lovely Bank holiday!!!!

Friends

It was lovely to have friends round for a get together and it was nice to see the dogs having fun too of all shapes and sizes..

Don't they look sweet having a play :)
