Hi guys

Well alls going well with me ive been busy doing classes and this image is from one of them dontcha love it lol i know blowing my own horn but i cant help but smile when i look at it lol

Its so cold here in OZ at the moment and now the wind has arrived , bugger i hate the wind..

Well my daughter is in love i think and im so happy for her , she is over the moon and is always talking about him lol so it must be love ............

Doing classes at DAA is the best thing i ever did, I can see Karens school really going places she is a wonderful lady and so generous with her time , i just wish the school had been around when i started out , i can remember searching the net for tutorials on Corel Painter they were scarce ,
most were on Photoshop which im am just now starting to learn and its really convoluted hate the brush set up lol so off to painter when i need a brush , i can see a good use for it and will do as most people do now and combine the two.........

Well Open Studio starts next week i think and im also signed up for Karens digital flower painting classes so will be flat out like a lizard drinking for most of August lol

Anyway any info u want on digital art etc just pop on over to my other blog here

catch ya soon and take care

Miss Polly





Miss Polly had a dolly .........

This little lady came into my life just after my marrige ended , my parents came to visit and we went to the local hospital fete and there she was pretty as a picture all made from rags, who would have thought, anyway it was love at first sight and of course my dad bought her for me and i was delighted .......im not into those pretty dressy dolls that most girls like they are to perfect maybe its a reflection of myself, anyway she now has pride of place along with other friends ive gathered over the years .........i intend to paint her but havent got around to it yet ...

Theres another lady u must meet but i will save her for another time her name is Hortense lol you will see why when u meet her ............


take care and bye for now

My New Toy


Look to the right and see my new toy, wow i love it, a compliation of some of my old and current favourites, just hope this page does not open to Meatloaf / Bat Out Of Hell one of my old time favourites lol for those of u who shake their heads well im an old rocker and love most music except rap. Love AC/DC , The Angels, Rolling Stones etc so had to include this as it used to be the one i played when i was alone in my car, i remember when the ex or my girls got in the car and i turned the ignition there he was full boar Meatloaf and boy did they moan and groan lol i always forgot to turn the music down before i turned the engine off ...........so please double click on another song if it opens to Bat Out Of Hell and enjoy the music while u browse ......
