Joy




When I was asked to choose a word to inspire me in 2011, the word JOY popped into my head without thinking so... so be it. The other word I actually chose when I did give it some thought was SERENDIPITY so is that a coincidence? tee, hee, I have doodled Joy and put it onto a couple of Photoshopped backgrounds and will be using the word as a theme for a journal

getting underway


I am beginning to get into the flow of 2011! Have posted my Sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project, started clearing my studio, I have been hugging the warmth in the living room all through the cold weather (I know it hasn't all gone yet!) and my stuff is everywhere!! I really want to get started with a clear workspace (and head!) and have found the suggestions on the Big Dreams-Small Wonders have helped me to focus on the really important stuff. I found this picture of vine leaves, altered in Photoshop while tidying the folders in My Pictures and thought it was worth bringing out and letting it glow.

January gets underway


It seems such an age since I posted ... what with the snow.. Christmas and New Year etc., It was great to realise this week that all the hoo-hah was done and the whole of 2011 is waiting to be lived to the full! Not that I have anything in mind ,and that is great too, I am doing a Louise Gale online course http://www.bigdreamssmallwonders.com/ and just taking my time to enjoy the experience.

Earlier this week daughter Pam and family returned to Belfast, water shortages and all, it's crazy in a province with so much water to spare that the water company is such a shambles!

Happy New year to you all, I hope you are safe, dry and warm.

I am making the most of clear pavements to get out and about so that too contributes to my lack of "arty" stuff. Here's one I did earlier...
