Good news!!

Yesterday I got some good news! I had my 1st yearly follow up at the hospital and I've been given the all clear-yeay! So now I feel I can move forward, get fitter, focus and relax a bit more.

It's a beautiful clear, crisp, fresh, blue sky day here too so that makes me happy :0)

And another thing that makes me happy... my dog last night...he likes his comfort!

in post today :0)

Just received these cutie tattoos I did for Peaceable Kingdom Press :0)

sketchy bits

So today, while I'm waiting on feedback with a job, I'm doing some mad sketching....the inner workings of my mind reveals :0)

New work on website

Yes! I managed to upload some new work to my website so please do drop by and take a look at my "Books" and my "Illustration 2"  pages. All new images are at end of pages.

WIP

I thought I could show a little bit of some of the work I'm doing. Pattern work is crazy addictive don't you think?

work and other things

Sorry for not posting as often these days. Same old...busy working and nothing that I can show really except I will show this section of a pattern I've been working on :0)

Hey!, it's nearly the weekend and my hubbie says he'll take me to the totally vegan restaurant "Saramango" in Glasgow...I say "the" cos as far as I know it's the only one! I'm looking forward to it as the food is fab!

recent disappointment

Last week I was given the invitation to do some work for a great job, a large sticker book with princesses. Great I thought! Then when I asked about budget I was told no budget in place as yet could I just carry on with a cover design please? I declined to do this as it isn't good practice to start work not knowing a budget first. So after the weekend the client then came back saying actually we've changed what we are looking for. Now we only need backgrounds and could I copy someone else's style and do  this for deadline of 2 weeks. I wasn't happy about doing any of it after all unfortunately :0(

So here is a little princess I did just for fun...she has a lovely little bowl of cookies! Yeah!

email and work

email back to normal now-thank goodness!
Really super busy with work so really can't show anything but here is a little seal for you :0)

Email problems

Hopefully my clients will see this.
Please note my email is not working properly due to "outage" apparently. Will be back up and running properly by wed morn my provider says. I hope they're right!

Squirrel-ing away!

So, it's back to work with a vengeance! Unfortunately I can't show any work I'm on at the moment so here is a little tiny section of an illie I did for a publishers back in aug '12.

Working on kid's board books and a website design.

Looking for some sunshine....where has it gone? I can hardly remember what it looks like.
