Hi there. Thanks for popping in today. Was thinking about Scotland today. Don’t know why, but I was. Decided to make a piece of art to celebrate a very beautiful country. I wish we had more time to be able to explore Scotland, but I must be careful what I wish for! So I shall just content myself with half an hour making a simple picture of a Scottish castle…. Found a grey, purple pink Acrylic paint piece where I…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Sorry I’m so late today. Didn’t get back from London until late, and by the time you’ve cooked the meal, served it and eaten it, the time rattles on past. Bushed now though. Went to War of the Worlds last night at the Dominion Theatre. Blimming brilliant. I was enthralled from start to finish – and it was a good 2 1/2 hours long. It is what you would call a masterpiece. The music,…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in on this lovely Thursday. Dave and I are off up to London today, in readiness for a business meeting on Friday. Dave’s got tickets for a show this evening – it’s a surprise. And I do love a surprise, don’t you?? Mind you, if it’s a Death Metal Band, he’s on his own! Thursday’s Blog is always blue, so let’s make a card together, shall we? And then let’s have a little bloggy sale…….
Hi there. Mindful Wednesday. Mmmm. Still recovering from Ally Pally here! It’s all very, very hectic at Clarity Towers, so I came home for a nap. Yep. My Mum always tells me, a little cat nap in the afternoon is all it takes. Just 20 minutes does the trick… Works for me every time. I think it’s the switch-off. It’s the momentary shutdown – rather like meditation, but really thorough! And none of us are getting any younger, are we??…
Hi there, Hope Tuesday is behaving for you? We are spinning like tops as usual, but I have to tell you, we wouldn’t have it any other way. The only challenge is striking a balance between a booming business and an overwhelming business. Here’s a masterpiece by Dee, using our lovely 3 new Baby Magpie Plates: Paul and I dissected it and prepared it for a TV show, but never got to show it off. Nonetheless, teamwork makes the dream work,…
Hello there! Monday after Ally pally. Ugh. I feel like I’ve been through a wash cycle and hung out to dry. What a weekend. The vibe was so special and, dare I say it – more like the good old days. So here is a short but sweet little tree demo for days like today, when you can barely string a sentence together. Ink up one of the little trees from the Wee Trees set in Fern green Archival and…
Hi Hi! Thanks for popping in. Just got back from Ally Pally. Had a brilliant day, catching up with good friends and just generally swanning about while the good Clarity crew carried the show. I cannot muster up a project this late. Sorry. Remember Herman’s Hermits? No milk today? Sing along if you dare!!!! Just changed the words a little for you…. No blog today My mojo’s gone away. My feet are killing me I need a cuppa tea Sorry…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just got in from Ally Pally. We commute and sleep in our own beds. Much better – and a whole lot less expensive than hotelling it for 8 people!!! A bit hard on the drivers – but that’ll be Dave in the Van and myself in the Pick-up. So what’s new. WHAT A DAY!!!!!! Just as I predicted, it was amazeballs! Groovi was mobbed, although the Wee Stamps and Word Chains were looking pretty…
Hello lovely peeps! Thanks for popping in. Although I can’t stay long. Just got in the door from setting up at Ally Pally, have to eat and make the picnic for the Clarity crew tomorrow, and then decide what to wear on such an auspicious occasion. Not only is it the first exhibition we’ve done since last November at the NEC – but I’m doing a Live hour TV show at 1pm too. Our stand is looking pretty good. This time…
Ahoy there! Sorry I’m so late! Ask me how things are shaping up for Ally Pally and the HOCHANDA TV Show on Saturday – I dare you!! No, not really. Demos done for the 1pm show. The only problem is my neck; it seems to be revolting. Overdone it and now it’s on strike. Which is just great before a two-day, mental busy exhibition. So I’ve made an executive decision : no demonstrating at the show. Just the TV hour,…
