Pisces

Zodiac Sign for 20 Feb - 20 March
...the two fish in the basket symbolise a dear departed Pisces I knew...
..the seven frolicking little gold fish symbolise new life...
...well, that's what my thoughts behind this sort of were...
...She just grew the way she turned out, I didn't think a lot about it,
...but she is as soft as I wanted her to be...

Spoiled again

I feel blessed, I really have some very special friends.
Eventhough their "thing" is not really Art, but more Craft like patchwork and quilting, they have made such a grand effort choosing my gifts for my Birthday !
They must have spent hours wondering through the Art supply store and gifted me some beautiful Soft Pastels, crayons, palet knives and a Pan Pastel !!!
All this beautifully packed in a box with chocolate hearts
("you have to have hearts on a Valentines Birthday")
and....there even was a voucher !
for me to choose something off my Art wish list.
So today I went and bought some more Pan Pastel colours and some markers.
Again I feel so spoiled ! but I feel wonderful !

My Coffee Table Book

Look, look, look,

I made myself a book !

How exciting !

I just received my copy in the mail yesterday.

*
I had two of these books made in December as Christmas gifts for my parents and my sister.
It was a bit of a gamble really, as I did it all on-line and had the books delivered to my parent's house directly.
They loved them and said I should order a copy for myself as well.
I am happy with the result, it's a 24 pages soft cover.
