Molly in her basket

D has made me a fantastic study in our house, where I've got space to work and also paint and draw when I'm not busy. Molly has become my little companion in there, sleeping in her basket next to my desk while I'm working.

Working Boots

These are D's old boots, which he is wearing all the time at the moment as he is just about rebuilding the house!

Hot day

It's a very hot day today, and pleasant with a nice breeze, but the heat wears the dogs out.

This old fellow might look very innocent but he's caused me a headache this morning when first of all I looked around in the park and he was nowhere to be seen. I looked everywhere for him, couldnt call him because he's deaf - then finally found him in the children's playground eating someone's left over burger. Then on the way home some workmen had just put wet cement in a hole in the road and he fell into it, so had cement covered legs all the way home.

I know this drawing is confusing (it was confusing doing it) but it is a clothes horse with clothes on it and a view out of the window to a very messy garden.

Relaxing

I'm sorry I haven't posted for so long. I have been moving from the boat to a house and have only just got my broadband sorted out. The mess on this table is typical of the whole house at the moment.
