Census 2011

Just completed my census. Proud to have taken my place in this big slice of future history.

Crafty stationery

Got back to basics today, created three shiny new sets of stationery designs while listening to Hard Times by good old Mr Dickens.

First up was the ladybird design, bright and hinting at good weather and gardening times to come.





Then the stylish stripes with their uniform randomness of colour.





Finally a more organic form. I see it as a bird in the sky and a swan seen behind the foliage on the bank. A happy summer scene.

iPaditis - Signs to look out for...

One for those of you who are ipad addicts or those that have loved ones who just glaze over and start swiping!

Peas awaiting pods

As my first foray into Good Life style vegetable growing, I don't think I'm doing too badly! The peas have spouted into healthy little plants and are ready to be potted out into something more nourishing and stable.

Moss Garden

My zen moss garden is underway.




Initial moss has been planted and is sprinkled with water daily like a Japanese tea garden.

Tools of the trade

Purchased a new layout pad today. There's something about a new sketchbook or drawing pad that fills me with pride. To leave a shop knowing that under your arm you have the foundation stone for hundreds of new ideas, thoughts and sketches.

I almost ran home!
