Hi there! Hope you are keeping safe and well? Last day in Africa today. Ahhh. I so enjoyed spending a week there with so many friends! The art and the vibe, the doodles and the colours, the banter and the songs – yes. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable little break away from it all. There’s just one little old technique I want to try with my little old Maasai warrior: a bit of paper piecing using the new designer…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Bank Holiday Monday? Who for? The banks are closed, 7 million furloughed people are at home anyway, many millions more work from home. So Bank Holiday Monday. Mmm. I’ve worked all day anyway, because this Monday is just like any other to me. Shift happens, doesn’t it. The goal posts move, the lines get blurred. The rules change, the focus moves in and out. Nothing stands still. Shift usually happens gradually, almost surreptitiously. We…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. I’ve been busy this morning, mapping out our next Doodle Trip. I think you will enjoy this next week. I am so looking forward to sharing with you tomorrow, if you do fancy joining me on the Doodle-SHAC-Shack bus. It’s quite a challenge, but no pain, no gain and all that… May has always been our time to travel, because it falls between shows and events. Yesterday, I went back a year, to NEW…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. It is sweltering under the roof here in our DHAC-Shack, so I am writing really fast, and keeping it short but sweet, so I can get outtahere! The names you have come up with for our Cock n Hen are all brilliant! Paul suggested Dick n Dotty, which I like, but they are all individual, aren’t they! He’s YOUR cock! You decide !!! Hahahahaha. Anyway… Here’s a little Video to highlight Perga Glitter when…
Hi there. Hope you are safe and well? After spending the day with my parents yesterday, I’m back firmly holed up here in my Shac-Shack. Started the Cockadoodledoodle with everybody at 10am this morning! That’ll be fun. I do enjoy pencil colouring. What makes me decide which direction to take on our Daily Doodle trips? What sends me off to New Mexico or Japan or Carmel or wherever? Simple. I open my eyes and I look for signs. How did…
Hi there, Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are safe and well? Me? I had a brilliant day today. A super day. You know that feeling when you’ve done something really good? Well, I have that now. You see, I crossed the line today. I went to my parents’ house, to deliver their groceries, but we made the decision to let me into their home again. It was a decision we made in the week, quite simply because my Mum…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. On call here in the SHAC-Shack back at base, while lovely Paula works on the Clarity Shows up at the HOCHANDA studios at 11am and 1pm, and I join in with a Skype connection where I can, to support her. So while I wait until 1pm for the next TV-Skype call, I thought I would hang out with my buddies here in Blogland. The 1pm show is very close to my heart. To those…
Hi there. Thanks for joining me. Having spent a virtual week in new mexico, I am ready to retire out there! I have so enjoyed our doodle trip to Albuquerque. Does the soul good. I could have stayed there for at least another week, but hey ho. Maybe in a while we can revisit , and take another look from a different angle. The diversity and beauty in New Mexico will keep us enchanted – encantada – for the rest…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. How are you? How are you coping? Good days and growing days. The daily Doodle sessions are creating a shift in me, if I may say so. Never having been a confident person, I usually tend to morph into various personalities, depending on who I am with. Even my dialect and choice of words will change if you’re posh and don’t swear. But now I am alone in the room above the garage, day…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. For three days now we have been doodling a dream catcher in the SHAC-Shack. Today we were working on the dangly feathers. I can only speak for myself, but I have found the last 3 days in the SHAC-Shack an absolute pleasure. Perhaps it’s because we are on tour in New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment; perhaps the spiritual energy from that lovely place has worked its magic in our souls. Wouldn’t that be…
