Not much progress to report in my creative space this week.I have managed to ink in the boys but between endless games of chess and snakes & ladders, creating various forms of slime (I bet you're tres jealous about that one), twisting a rainbow of pipe cleaners, snipping and gluing an assortment of felt squares and baking cupcakes in preparation for the end of the world, well, my patient little boys have had to sit quietly waiting in the corner for a snippet of love and attention.
Soon my wee ones, soon I will fill your world with colour.
For more lovely creative spaces, mosey on over to Kirstys, but please, take a few cupcakes with you, we're a little cupcaked out.
loving it - they could do with a lesson in patience anyway ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing talent. I would pay money for pen and ink drawings like this to hang around my house.
ReplyDeleteHint.
I do love your drawing - its really sweet. Can't wait to see the colour.
ReplyDeleteBut more importantly, how do you make slime??
I really love that drawing. And thanks for the cupcake, goes great with my coffee!
ReplyDeleteHold that thought Monsieur Awsome, I have a fabulous image popping into my head for you.
ReplyDeleteI love love love the way your drawings take life...I am totally envious of your ability!
ReplyDeleteI'll buy it if you do it!
ReplyDeleteThis one is going to be wonderful Tara. I'm already quite taken with the pencil.
ReplyDeleteMonsieur Awsome agrees to purchase image. Sign here please X__________. ;)
ReplyDelete@numberchic : Sorry I'm not further along. School holidays, eek.
ReplyDelete@Liesl : Thanks, the colour will be fun. The slime came in a kit for Le Artiste's birthday. But I'm sure I've seen a recipe somewhere using cornflour if you do a Google search.
@Selina & Amanda & Kirsty : Thank-you lovely ladies for stopping by and leaving such nice comments :)
take your time, seriously, it's been an expensive few weeks, flat screen tv, coffee table, tv cabinet, dishwasher, hospital and doctors bills, new anti-dust mite covers for Rowdy's bed and of course now the dryer has died. There is a conspiracy amongst whitegoods against me. Oh plus we have to get a leather lounge because of Rowdy's allergies. Yay. More expense. What else is left? Not much really - a few things but I won't mention them for fear of jinxing myself!!
ReplyDeleteAnd so I keep working day and night. I keep coming back to look at the pics to brighten my spirits. Just love them.
how i love the early drawing of it as well as the color...taking care of family...drawing waits~
ReplyDeleteSounds like way more fun than I've been having, especially the slime.
ReplyDeleteIf you do come up to the big smoke for finders keepers be sure to say hi!
I love the drawing as it is, can't wait to see it coloured. In the meantime, enjoy the slime and cupcakes.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous space. In the meantime they look beautiful black and white. Lots of school holiday cup cake baking at our place too.
ReplyDeleteGreat drawing.. I can't draw and that is fantastic!!

ReplyDeletethe drawing is wonderful - just that little bit of ink has added so much.
I need to take a leaf out of your book for supremo school holiday action! And I love the pencil work already!
ReplyDeleteI love that you saw that the world was ending and headed off to the kitchen to bake something fabulous!.. LOVING YOUR DRAWING TOO! Peta
ReplyDeletethat drawing is so lovely. no wonder you can capture boyishness in a drawing with all of that slime stuff happening
ReplyDeleteI guess if you only linking progress & creative to your drawing, then saying "not much this week" is fair. But bigger picture, it sounds like there has been a great deal of progress and creativity in your house space this week! It sounds busy busy busy but fun fun fun!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful!
