I wish I were a Lady Bug....

Busy Busy Busy....

Its been a hectic time,lots of crafting and art work being done but not too much finished,so I will be working like a crazy thing over the coming weeks to get things done for Christmas.

Summer has arrived early and with it the heat ,which sucks for me since I cant handle bright days or heat,so I guess most of my art will be done in the evenings from now on,what a drag,I'm in mourning for my sweet, beloved winter!

Ive been up in Goolagong this week and was very inspired by the colours that I saw there,all the rich greens, bright yellows and the waves of purple were all so beautiful,it was so nice to wake up to the sweet smell of the bush and the fresh clean air,still I couldn't live there,its way to hot and isolated,its nice to be home again.

Well now lets get down to some serious art stuff,I've been visiting different blogs in my never ending quest for growth and artistic nourishment and I found a wonderful site for animators and those who love animation to visit and feed on,its just crammed with animation works for every one...google the following....

For those who love to draw and illustrate you might like to visit the illustration blog over at...

I have realized that I need to make more time for drawing,its not something that I have been keeping up with lately,I need to dust off the mole skin and get out side to draw like I used to,I still do basic design drawing and pattern drawing and drawing for art works but as for drawing for the sake of drawing that's where I'm slack,so maybe tomorrow Ill get out and do some life sketching.
I recommend that every creative keep a mole skin or five,they are awesome things to keep on you,you can catch so much with them and fine hone your drawing skills while you are at it,so if you don't have one,go get one!

I will be listing a few things into my Etsy shop tomorrow,I'm slowly sorting it out,takes time though and hopefully I will have it up and running seriously by Christmas,so pop in and check it out when you get time,please..xox
