Working it...

Today's prompt was work...
So here is a semi self portrait as a 50's style houswife, complete with overcooked dinner, annoying call from telemarketer, toddler failed to be amused by iPad, scattered toys and shoes, all whilst charmingly wearing half of dinner on her shirt.
This just about sums it up some days. lol

A (rather retro and nostalgic) farewell to Summer.

I almost didn't do anything today. My throat feels like I've been chowing down on cut glass, my sinuses are so full they ache, and my nose... Don't even get me started on my nose.
So goodbye Summer, wish I could have given you a better send off.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to crawl into bed and pretend my head doesn't exist.

The Rescue.
By request.
Many years ago I drew a similar picture for a friend of mine, resuing her from her bad day.
Well things have been a little bleak for her lately, and she finds herself in need of a bit of a rescue again.
So here it is, Her Princess in Shining Armour.
I will be colouring this, as I love it!



Today's drawing in colour. Not finished, but out of time! lol



As usual, click to see more details in the images.

And....

Drew yesterday for the first time in a long time.
Unfortunately, my mad skillz are rather rusty.
I enjoyed it immensely though, as I was still on a high from seeing the Masterpieces from Paris exhibition at NGA... Thus the hommage to Toulouse- Lautrec
I'm pleased with the results, despite the obvious shortcomings.

And... Am planning a cake for my brother's 30th birthday, with a 50's style modern pin up girl.
Am excited!


Love and kisses
