Hello Winter Term....

Yesterday was first day of Winter Term

which got a big two hands in the air WOOHOO from me

I was so ready to wave Phantom off to school with a song in my heart

and give my poor tortured brain a rest

I seriously have no clue where this kid came from

and I think there may have been an alien involved

its the only answer I can come up with that explains

someone who watches crap reality tv, while listening to show tunes

and wants to discuss obscure maths and physics concepts

or the bizarre latest obsession of surrealist theatre and the plays of Artaud

It does my head in to spend time with her

but at least she is never boring... 

All was quickly put back to rights 

and my brain was given the rest it needed

with some therapeutic  pear sketching and painting

for the Artists Playroom

and after giving up on trying to get the three of them to stand up 

so I could draw them in a soldier straight line

I gave in and drew the drunk pear that kept falling over just as it was

first time I have drawn a pear butt

and was quite a fun angle to draw

who knew....

So pears duly sketched up and coloured

I attacked drawing up some new work

which I will be able to do

UNINTERRUPTED

so spoons were duly drawn up

but of course there was an interruption

inevitable isn't it

but it was an order from Republic of Tea

and I am getting quite the collection

I am almost embarrassed

almost...

so Lady Grey was pushed aside

and I said a big hello to Cranberry Blood Orange

you all know what I am going to be drawing and painting 

for the foreseeable future don't you

what a joyous Tuesday Tea....

My last few blog posts have been

Watermelon Thanks....

Saviour Soap and Dream Bars....

which has a yummy recipe in it... just perfect with a cup of tea!!!
