Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Early start here – and feeling so much better for it! Lying in bed underneath the featherbed does not make it all go away; in fact, it seems to wriggle in under the duvet and start worming its way into my thoughts. So the best thing to do is…. GET UP AND MAKE A PLAN TO GET BUSY !!!! These are strange and frightening times. Our routines have been upended, completely capsized, and we…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Hope your day has been a good one? Beautiful and sunny here in the Southeast of England today! I ran a food delivery over to my parents’ house this afternoon. Dave ran the shop gauntlet earlier, while we were all merrily doodling; then I took over, so that he could get back to PPE production. It was good to see Mum and Dad, even at a distance. We had a good old catch up,…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Beautiful day here in Crowborough. Time for a little walk through the bluebells now….funny that. It’s even more important now than ever that we don’t miss them before they fade. I guess we are realising what is important ? Or is it that we are realising our frailty? The shortness and frailty of human life? And a carpet of bluebells is heavenly. Tomorrow we are showcasing our wonderful collection of Floral Friends on HOCHANDA.com….
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Hope you are safe and well. All good here, but it’s time to stop and sit in the garden before the sun disappears. Funny old day. Feels like I’ve been swimming against the tide since I woke up. Not in a contrary way, not in a rebellious way. Been quite happy up here alone in the SHAC-Shack, doing art for TV. Just having to use more energy than usual to do normal stuff. Got…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. How has your day been? Did you manage to do any crafting? Paul and I picked and packed orders all day. It was the first time we’ve hung out together in ages – at a sensible distance, of course – so it was actually really fun. I picked and he packed. All good. Like I said before, the new factory is a bit like the Mary Celeste, but hey. Nobody has died. Nothing terminal….
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Hope you are staying safe and keeping busy? BUSY??I’ve already blitzed the bedroom, the bathrooms and the kitchen! Listened to 3 chapters of my book at the same time, emptied the dishwasher, loaded the dishwasher and folded the laundry (I draw the line at ironing today!) . Oh. AND had my yoghurt!! What next ???? It’s TV day today. At 11am and 3pm we are away with the fairies! Showcasing magnificent Fairy dies, stamps,…
Hi there. Good of you to pop in. Just had the wind knocked right out of my sails. Grace told me that one of our lovely Clarity friends and customers, Linda Williams Woodland, died this week from this awful virus. I can’t believe it. She was always commenting here on the blog, always fun to be around. Big Groovi fan. Very creative, very upbeat, very kind, great energy – a real light. Gone. Just like that. Dearie me. So so…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Quite a day today! Have you ever left the house, and then just as the door closes, you realise you’ve left your keys on the kitchen table? With your phone? Yep, that was my first party piece today. Was all set to go out to my little SHAC-shack above the garage, to fire up the cameras and get going on our daily doodle session at 10am – and gasp. Locked out of the house….
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Beautiful sunny day here in East Sussex again. Thoroughly enjoyed the daily doodle this morning. Hope those of you who joined in did too! I am loving the finished artworks you are posting on our Facebook group, Clarity Worldwide! Who knew we were all such great illustrators?!? Well, you never know until you try, do you. We are on HOCHANDA TV today too, showcasing some of my very favourite designs: the Birds in the…
Thanks for popping in. Such a busy day !! So much for hanging out in the garden and honing my Lino Cutting skills! Not this week anyway! Our SHAC SHACK daily doodling with the hot air balloon is coming along nicely, and tomorrow we’ll be adding a nice back drop. We got a great basket weave going today, didn’t we?! I nearly lost the plot there for a moment – but hey! It’s all just a bit of doodle fun…
