Mindless Telly

What a day. Terrific opening of the new printmaking show at Galerie Simpson earlier. Now I’m shattered and slumped in front of the telly. There isn’t a cat available for sketching, they’re refusing to hang out with the trained monkeys because they’re on the roof bothering magpies, so it’s Husb again. And now, The Voice.Continue reading “Mindless Telly”

End Of The Day

Another long day with little time to draw but the cat, Ming the Merciless is dozing at my feet so it’s another quick cat sketch from me.

Another Night, Another Cat

I get annoyed with myself because I haven’t produced a great masterpiece, or misstresspiece, but the importantContinue reading “Another Night, Another Cat”

Such a busy day, I only had time for a few quick kitty scribbles this evening as Sparta Puss dozed at my feet. After shopping this morning at the excellent Uplands Market, Husb and I did a massive cook-in, making split pea and ham soup, tomato and vegetable soup, spelt and seeded bread, Seville orangeContinue reading “The Cook In”

Lazy Day

Apart from a visit to some delightful relatives, today’s been a lazy day. Yesterday was such lovely weather that Husb and I walked about 8 kilometres along the seafront in Swansea. Today we woke up to torrential rain and high winds so now this evening we’re cwtched at home behind tightly drawn curtains watching television.Continue reading “Lazy Day”
