Its Oh So Quiet

on the crafting front I mean - not my house that's as hectic and noisy as usual! In fact more so with the children being off school.  I haven't had chance to play much this week - in fact the white tablecloth from Christmas Day is still on my dining room table so I can't get my inks out until I move it!

I did however paint two lovely pictures at my last two art classes which are on proud display in my dining room so I thought I would post them on here to show you all too.  Here is the one I did a week last Friday:


and the one I did the week before that:


both are done in acrylics.

Had a great time at the Solihull Pantomime on Friday and tomorrow I am taking DS2 to see the Gruffalo's Child in Birmingham, then we only have two more days until they go back to school! Boo. Oh well such is life as I will then have to catch up with the jobs I keep putting off as we are on holiday! 

So that's from me until next year! hope you all have a good one!

Thanks for looking - Off to play Lego Lord of the Rings from Solihull

Both paintings are great but I really love the robin. You could have it printed as your next year's Christmas card

Lego Lord of the Rings:)) Love it Nicola! Mine are now at the stage where they don't really want me butting in with Skylanders Giants. I remember well the days when I was a Pokemon champion... oh yes! I caught all 150 on one game alone!! Love your pictures - that robin is superb - you need to create/alter a frame for both of them now. Hope you have the best year yet in 2013, and yep, we do need a get together this year. Hugs, Jenny x
