Bad Kitty

Greetings

In February I went to the British Filkcon ( I have posted before about this).

When they were planning the Con last year they asked for people to send pictures that could used in publications. They promised brownies as payment.

The con was called DemiSemiquaver (this is a very short note indeed) and they suggested that critters breaking, or chewing notes would be appropriate.

Here is one of the drawings I sent them:

I quite like how this came out.

Until next time

Stamp design

Greetings

Here is an extra post for this week...

When I was at school, the National Army Museum in Chelsea used to run summer events.

I was able to go to these from the age of 8, which soon gave me confidence in navigating the Undergound on my own.

The museum showed films and ran lectures and presentations. It also had occasional competitions

I found this piece in one of my porfolios. .



 I was in the upper end of the 14 to 18 category and I note that I won first prize for this, but cannot remember what that prize was (probably a booktoken).

I used to collect  British stamps ( I gave up the hobby about 10 years ago, but still have my collection) and I think that this design stands up quite well compared to many I have seen.

Here is a close up of the stamp design.


Until next time

progress on current oil painting

Greetings

I am still working on my current oil painting.

When I last blogged ( a bit a ago now- as I like to live with my paintings for a bit ...) on this  subject it looked like this:


It now looks like this:


I'm still not completely happy with it, so will be blogging about it again when I've done more work.

Until next time

Dress-Up David Outfits 4

Greetings

Here is an extra post for this week.

This is the final outfit I made for my Dress-Up David fridge magnet.

He had to have a Rocky Horror set:


I used the standard leather jacket and the boots from my Leatherboy David set in the first outfit.

It's just a pity that David's feet are at the wrong angle for high heels...

Until next time.
