I’ve been busy, as I’m sure we all have. I watched the Royal Wedding. I took the day off work just to see it. It was wonderful. I love them both. It’s like a breath of fresh air to the Royals. She’s just so beautiful and elegant.
I’ve been taking a She Art class with Christy Tomlinson. I love her, she’s so cute and her online class is great. This has also led me to the Brave Girls Club… I am quite busy right now. I should be in bed right now… yawn!!!! I will drag myself to bed in a minute. I’ll have to move Blue as she always sleeps in my spot. she won’t be happy as she thinks her rightful place is next to my husband. Jasper will snuggle up against my back or against my hubby. He takes turns. Sweet.
I did this in the She Art class.. but I was definitely influenced by Julie Nutting as well. I’m a big fan. I have learnt some great techniques in Christy”s class. I tried to add my own spin though, the dogs.
I also was inspired to paint another bike, painting. m not sure if I’ve finished yet and her’s a crow I’ve been working on…
Ok I can’t get my post in order. I’m too tired to try. I have to go to bed. Its 1 am and I get up at 6….. G night.

I once saw a painting of a red crow wearing red shoes. for some reason that has always stayed with me.

PS I loved the Royal WEdding, despite all the annoying pre-hype, I had a great time watching it. They look happy and clearly took a good long time making sure this was the right decision.
I could never keep an elegant and straight face through all of that. She must have trained in the mirror!
