LACMA and the Farmers Market

I've had a wonderful day today. I wonder if you've ever been to LACMA? If not, give it a go when you're in LA I'm on their mailing list and it's been something I've wanted to do for a long time… well finally I went today. OOOh, but how to get there? I'm staying near…

I left home 36 hours ago and I'm now able to relax a little. The trip was great, but I didn't sleep much. I just got into the pj/s they give you and relaxed watching movies and working. Its funny when you think of it… 60 people or so all dressed the same in gray…

Blog hop and Video.

  I'm a bit behind, packing backs, illustrating and writing have taken a lot of time….but I wanted to let you know that Ali George is sharing her studio today. I see that Ali collects meakin china, so do I, so we are kindred spirits.   Now I apologize for not putting Sally Westcott's studio…

My books.

I've almost finished my writing,  – what a relief. My designer is pleased and so far we are on track but I'll have to work on the road as we edit and design the book. I'm sure I'll have to do more illustrations. It goes to the printer on the 8th August. This is new…
