I find these wee chooks, that live on the side of the road, very inspiring. I think it’s partly that they are so cute, but also their cocky Independence appeals to me. And for a few crisps, they pose wonderfully 🙂

And keeping with the lights…
This is the pretty garden that lives in my mind – which I have to say has little or no resemblance to the rather neglected garden of my reality!!10×10″ in acrylics on stretched canvas. For sale via Etsy and Artfind – links at right.

I’m back into the paint box
And thank goodness for that. I don’t really know what’s been wrong with me – terminal exhaustion mainly!! I have stopped whinging, and am getting on with it again. Moaning about being tired never fixed anything huh??So, here is The beach from above #1.
This is part of an ongoing series, inspired originally by the idea of abstracting aerial views of Italy. The series now encompasses abstractions of aerial views from all round the world, as well as from within my own imagination.
This piece is 10×10″ painted in acrylics on high quality pre-stretched canvas. There is no need to frame; it is ready to hang and enjoy.

85_365: still tired, but needing to create
A bit thanks to fellow artist Sandra T who emailed me today to check if I was okay. She was worried about me not blogging. Check out Sandra’s work at http://www.dreamswork.blogspot.comWhat I do know is that when I stop creating something changes in me – slowly I get more tired, more worn down by the day to day stuff of my life. I need to be creating something, almost anything.
So today I got back into it. It’s a piece I have done before, and will no doubt do again. Using up old watercolours, playing with the composition, messing round with glitter glue. All good fun 🙂

81-84_365 : time out
I have been so tired I could not face uploading anything. I think when Mum has been very sick, then gets better, I relax and it hits me. Watching someone dying slowly over years is not an easy thing; nursing them at home is emotionally draining.
Would I change it though? Not on my life… This time with Mum is precious, and it is not an opportunity every daughter gets.
