The school holidays are finally here...the sun is

shining...at last...it's making me dream of distant

shores !! Unfortunately it will be a good few weeks before

we will be able to jet away but a happy ' bon voyage' to all

those who are travelling now....enjoy !!

Another development from our trip to the zoo !!

Just working on some Christmas designs for a client and

managed to fit this extra idea in for the Tigerprint competition.

I came runner up so I'm thrilled !!

Take a look at some of the other entries at

http://tigerprint.typepad.com/competition/

You can also find my work at http://www.thestitchingshed.co.uk

They create some really funky cross stitch and needlepoint kits...take a look !

What has happened to the weather ?? It's mid July and I've had to dig out a big jumper !!

My favourite animal has to be the giraffe.

I love their colour and grace....and they are soooo cute !

My new Blog !!

Well I have finally managed to find the time to start my Blog. I'm hoping to visit on a regular basis to share my world with you.

I'd love to hear from anyone out there who shares the same passion for colour and creativity.

Thought I would start my posting with some illustrations that cmae from my trip to the zoo with my seven yr old.

Hope you like them !!
