I saw this on Boxing day and have been meaning to write something but couldn’t be bothered. It has pretty much been said, but just in case my opinion is required: – very pretty to look at – shit boring script, being ‘Heroes Journey, ‘Dances With Wolves’ variation – Sam Worthing still has the acting […]
When S finished up at work, I made this card which was signed by our team for her. I know green and blue are her favourite colours, and used that as the basis for the design. The background card is just one piece of a kind of patchwork cardstock that I thought went well with […]
This was for a lady at work whose 50th birthday fell on Valentine’s day. She always wears bright colours, and I was going for an art deco feel. The layers are cardstock, floral paper, green cardstock, and white card which has been sponged for the stamped image. The vellum has been edged with copper ink, […]
This was the final canvas of the five I created last year for work colleagues. I did give it to her before Christmas, I just didn’t post it here (and the pics from #3 are missing, so I am waiting on that colleague to get me a new digital photo of it. SB has been […]
This was for a colleague who is from Fiji. When I asked her what colours she likes, she told me pink and orange. I was going for a lush, tropical feel and highly saturated colours. I had a lot of fun with this, and got to use some of my bollywood braiding. It was also […]
I forgot to say that the past two posts contained photos that I took myself, with Daedalist’s funky camera. He has taken all the other photos for me. The white on the face of the lady in Etoile is due to the flash making the sealer all shiny, but it was my first attempt and […]
I made this for one of my work colleagues, the 2nd of 5 that I want to finish by the end of the year. (Previous effort was Put on your wings). Etoile is named after the stars on the woman. I wanted to use black and red for my colleague, and I really like the […]
This was the class I did at Darling Harbour a while back. It was very quick, about an hour all up. First I put texture paste on the canvas, then added the acrylic paint. What that was drying I painted the shapes – the big flower and the two buds. Then they were glued on […]
This is a classic BBC miniseries from 1998. I had seen the first two episodes when it originally screened, but never seen the whole series. Dave had not seen it at all, so when I discovered a friend had the series on DVD, I thought it would be great to watch the whole thing (thanks […]
Last weekend we went away, and amongst other things had a few Rock Band 2 sessions. We have unlocked the Endless Setlist, and even made a start on it, but decided to wait until we were less tired and there were more of us (as it is better to have a few extra people to […]
