This part of my blog is all about the things I collect or the things I make myself. I love so many things, I paint and draw and want to learn oils and pastels. I knit and crochet but want to learn tatting. I embroider and can turn my hand to most things given a chance. So much still to learn and do. I live in hope of some day reading all my books, learning all I want to learn and now I am learning to blog. You will often find my original poems, poor as they are I offer them here. I also appreciate other people art and will feature things I find that I have enjoyed. That includes pictures of fairies and fantasy or maybe just anything beautiful.
I try to use my own photo's as much as possible, sometimes I borrow from the web. If I inadvertently use your picture without giving credit, please do let me know and I will either credit or remove it, I hope you will do the same with mine.
If you wish to leave comments on my blog you can do that by joining google if you do not have a blog yourself, please comment if you can I appreciate that.

Above are two "cartoonish" pictures that I like to do. I am thinking of note cards later on and thought these might be something I would like to do. Here is another

I saw someone did a couple of owls on a twig. I liked it and did my version of crazy owls like a bigger one that I did before.

This didn't come out so well but I may try it again.

More cartoons.............copied this from somewhere and changed it a bit for me. I add it to my crazy cats collection. Remember Clarence the cross eyed lion? That's why I wanted him.

Another thing I find difficult is male figures. They end up looking like hairy girls

  3. You got me laughing at your hairy girls! LOL! Honestly, though, the rest that you created are all really sweet! I like them ;o)

  4. I love such original art - I find things that are "the same as everything else" to be quite boring - yours are delightful, each in their own ways. I love the little people on the note card. I'm going to try my hand at drawing some little people - in my own style - I need them for illustrating a book - thanks for the inspiration.
