About Me

Hello and welcome to my little piece of cyber space, just for me to share my daily random photo. I live with my very understanding partner, Mark and our very loyal and spoil canine daughter, Keeta. I am the mother of one incredible daughter, and have also gained two more beautiful daughters from Mark. I love to scrap, read and love photography. I have recently discovered the joy of canvas and acrylics as well. Although I am a newby at both blogging and photography I am hoping my skills will improve as I am sure they will. I enjoy good times with good people. I love good food, and most of all I love a good belly laugh.

Gustav Klimt appropriation...

finally gave this painting to my daughter of  "Mother and Child" by Gustav Klimt. I did this at art class and the project was to paint a famous painting and alter it. This is mine.

new art room...

I am so excited that finally I will have my own space to clutter and create how I want , instead of turning the granny flat into an absolute mess of chaos.  This is a before shot of the now cleaned up bike room. Just the cupboard, painting and floor covering and then its ready to go.  Got some fun stuff to hang.  Very exciting.

painted today....

the weather has been so horrible for two weeks now so painting is about all I have been doing.  Even though if takes forever to dry.   So a couple of small canvases to paint was nice, easy and enjoyable.
