Hmm, why have I been so quiet? You may be wondering what I’m doing that’s keeping me so busy. . .or you might not – but I will tell you anyway! After a burst of inspiration, I find myself with 5 portraits waiting to be finished – I blame myself really, never was very good…
Yes, sooo how are you? It’s erm, been a little while hasn’t it, sorry about that! I wasn’t quite sure what to write first, so I grabbed my pen and this happened: I am a tad excited, in case you couldn’t tell 😉 I had a thought (dangerous, I know!!) that I could draw/doodle my…
See, told you I’d be back! Sooo, did we all have lots of fun, and eat far too much food? I know I did 🙂 Here, please take this delicious bundle of choccy biccies as a belated Christmas gift Yummy treats I am having a short break before starting my next portrait, and as I…
My walking companion was a little different today, it seems Little Diva allowed me to join her for a wander in the woods. Wonky ears, listening out for her friends I took two cameras out with me, though she only let me use them if I promised not to ask her to pose, as this would…
Are you getting in the spooky spirit? Halloween is fast approaching, I just hope our animal family are ready for the noisy fireworks that always echo around our town this time of year. Hmm speaking of my furry/feathery friends, I don’t think I have written much about my my little fluffy guinea piggy, Jack, how awful…
Remember that time I disappeared for a week or so, and promised I’d tell you what I was up to? Well now is the time to share some photos and stories, enjoy! My adventure buddy: VHS Photography First stop on the journey was the New Forest, such a beautiful place! We were greeted by a…

Honestly, I am so out of sync with the world at the moment – I haven’t even turned over my calendar page! The last week or so has been topsy turvy, and everything seems to have come along at once. Being stuck in bed with a virus really messes with your schedule… Luckily I am…
Hello again, oh look! It appears to be raining *stares out into the greyness beyond the window* love the rain, as long as you have a nice big brolly & waterproof shoes for walking – there’s nothing nicer than the sound of rain pattering outside to make you feel relaxed As you have probably guessed…
Tomorrow morning I will be heading off on an adventure! I will be bringing back many photos as I am visiting landmarks and a wildlife park on my travels Until then, looky at these pretty engines and cars I spotted at the Barleylands show Beauty in car form I spy sweeties! I will aim to…
No really, the weather is beautiful today and I have been out for a wander, but now I’m sat at the laptop with an urge to update you : ) Wiley and I heard, and perhaps saw, a lovely little woodpecker during our walk – it was making quite a racket, each knock echoing around…
“Hello” I hope you have been well? So, new blog name, title image…thingy – what do you think? Thought it was time for a change as I am finally able to get things done after a time of coldy/achey/dizzy horridness. This seems to have passed, leaving me feeling much more active and needing to make up…
Well, today turned out rather different to what I had planned… I loved visiting the Wildlife Heritage Foundation so much a while back, that when I saw they had an Open Day I was of course overjoyed! This was the sunshine during my last visit All morning I was checking the weather forecast, getting increasingly…
Firstly, I have been getting back to my usual messy self, with pastelly fingers and brand new smudges on my well-worn apron. It’s great to have portraits to work on – they certainly keep me busy! Secondly, I have some fun things coming up over the next few months, that I can’t wait to tell…
I have not been blogging much recently due to my sudden urge to start baking again… I love making cupcakes, but when I do, they sort of take over my life for a while…. I always plan to carefully decorate each one to make them look super special…. But every time, I get impatient and…
I’m back! Did you miss me? 😉 I’m finally at my laptop again, indoors & out of the rain at last. Yesterday was spent sliding around in muddy wellies, exploring the Robin Hood country show, camera in hand. I had a wonderful time, lots of new portrait ideas after seeing the vast array of dogs,…
Each time I take a break from working on new portraits, I have been studying the latest addition to my bookshelf – ‘A Cat’s Life!’ (Photographs by Jane Burton) Its a truly wonderful book & the first thing I loved was its size; proper big images for me to admire, certainly worth being weighed down…
Well, I’ve been in the house pretty much all day seeing as Wiley sulks when I walk him in the rain/wind, so it was a swift journey around the woods before being dragged home again – honestly, he really is a lazy thing, but we love him for it ^_^ At least this gave me…
