giant schnauzer singing

Unfortunately I can't show any work still-no time to do any self initiated pieces.

So here is a youtube vid of a giant schnauzer singing which is a hoot! If only my giant could sing like this-I'd be thrown out the street-I know :0))

Still got a lot of work on but it's all fun- so good!

glasses

My age is starting to show. Needed glasses for 1st time in my life but only for reading. They are weird to wear but I'll get used to them I suppose. They should make sketching easier too which I seem to be doing a lot more of of late.

This is me in my work room as I like to call it with top, light cardi and heavy cardi on top cos it's cold as usual! :0)

On a more"off topic" note I wonder if any of you girlies (or way out guys!!) out there could help me?
I'm looking for a "real" WATERPROOF MASCARA for my hols this year. Something that will withstand swimming under water. Is there such a thing?
Everything I see online, the reviews only deal with being able to cope with crying or sweating or rain...I want mega water attack proof mascara!!
I bought a Blinc trial size and it's rubbish! No volume and it came off pretty easily in water.
Any good experiences from anyone??-would be really appreciated :0)))

Children's Story

you gotta love tom waits!

Lyrics to Children's Story :

Once upon a time there was a poor child,
with no father and no mother
And everything was dead
And no one was left in the whole world
Everything was dead

And the child went on search, day and night
And since nobody was left on the earth,
he wanted to go up into the heavens
And the moon was looking at him so friendly
And when he finally got to the moon,
the moon was a piece of rotten wood

And then he went to the sun
And when he got there, the sun was a wilted sunflower
And when he got to the stars, they were little golden flies.
Stuck up there, like the shrike sticks 'em on a blackthorn

And when he wanted to go back, down to earth,
the earth was an overturned piss pot
And he was all alone, and he sat down and he cried
And he is there till this day
All alone:

Okay, there's your story!
Night-night!

catch up

Hope everyone had a splendid bank hols and enjoyed the Royal wedding!!
I'm still very busy although managed to get the bank hols off :0))
I've got a potential 2 more jobs today and others in pipeline.
Still got old jobs since dec ongoing...
I'm finding it difficult to post any illustrations these days as I've no time to develop anything personal and I can't show anything I'm working on.
Hopefully soon I can post something of interest for you!
Oh and just to say a big thank you to all my 81 followers! The base is mounting slowly :0))
It's certainly nice to know when you're appreciated
