Old Boots

I am still really enjoying working with Pencil crayons!

Back to basics

What a pleasure it was to do this drawing entirely with pencil crayons. It really makes you work layer by layer for every square centimetre of colour! I've always enjoyed pencils, and this was the first time I'd attempted a "real" piece of art work using this medium. Julia is my niece, and Simba, my lovely quarter horse gelding, who as you can see by this, loves to be cuddled!

Just a couple more...

Just a couple more pieces of art work... created in my "spare" time. I'm busy tiling our master bathroom... work in progress photos coming very soon... I'm so excited to get that bathroom done (soon)!!!

"Cottage Garden"

A Watercolour on paper. (Not a very good photo of this unframed piece lying on a drafting table.)



This is drawn with pencil crayons on brown recycled paper.

Just me

Most people who know me well enough, know that I love playing around with make-up and have fun getting "dolled" up when I go out.... BUT.... this is me sans makeup most of the time... just me.

Add ons!

We've added to the farm! A new Ram Shed, and addition onto the existing lean to/barn. Now they just need to be painted to match the rest of the outbuildings.








Fall Colours

Fall has arrived. The grasses are yellow, the leaves bright in the sunshine. The horses coats are getting fuzzy. We've had a couple of frosts at night, and I expect before too long, we'll have snow.
