I was born, year of the Tiger






Now I know that it's 
HAPPY NEW YEAR, To the year of the DRAGON, 
but I don't have any pictures of a dragon, (yet!)

However I do have pictures of a Tiger, (the year that I was born in,) 

So please meet my Inky Tiger who started the ball rolling on my Tibbs character, see below.

Oh and he's the same colour as Sammy, so he's pleased to see him too!

Tribute to Donkey





This is a tribute to our gorgeous adopted Donkey, 

Busby, 

who sadly died just before Christmas.





Busby lived at The Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth, Dorset, 

http://www.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk





Although he was far away from us, we would always look forward to visiting him 
and his friends every year in the beautiful and unbelievably well kept sanctuary.

We would always take him a bag of apples to share with his friends, 
and I would enjoy sitting in the stunning surrounds sketching away. 






We will really miss him.

Bye bye Busby

Brrrrrrr its cold





Brrrrrr. . . . . 



. . . its cold out there today. 


Just a short blog entry this week, as pretty snowed under with a great new project,

but thought that this image summed up how I feel today . . .





. . . and so a warm hug in a mug on a regular basis is essential!
