Painting time needed!

Mosaics at last
For years I have been saving broken crockery and having 'rescued' two wooden reels that have had electricity cable on them, and having our wedding as a deadline, I finally managed to do something with some of my hoard. These mosaic tables are the result. I'm really pleased! I added some plastic bottle tops, glass pebbles
and broken tiles. The middles of the reels have rope wound round them, and the wood was painted with a blue paint for garden furniture, as they are for the garden. They looked great for our wedding parties!

Red Bubble
I recently started putting my work on Red Bubble. You can buy cards and prints of it from there, but also it's a community of artists who give feedback to each other. I haven't really got into that bit yet, as I'm a bit hesitant as I've only put three photos up so far, but my intentions are good....This is one of the works - it's a favourite of mine - I was using a knife rather than a brush (or as well as) which is fun as you can get these repeated 'cuts' into the paint.
Glitter!
Have recently discovered glitter gel pens! I love glitter and shine. All my doodles will be glittery now!
As years go by....
How did it get to be 2 years since I last posted?! Think I must be losing time somewhere.... maybe I exist in another universe as well..... actually I live in many places in my head, with all the different fantasy series I read, some I probably spend almost as much time in as the "real" world. Kim Harrison with The Hollows, Kelly Armstrong and The Otherworld, Charlaine Harris with Sookie Stackhouse, Jim Butcher and The Dresden Files, and many others.... all with a strong enough sense of place and the world they exist in that I feel I could visit....
