Sweet budgies (so fun to draw!) When I was much younger, my siblings and I got a cute budgie as a companion for my grandfather. He named the wee fella, 'Pete'. Not the most common of names for a budgie, perhaps but Pete didn't mind 🦜

The party animals from QUACKS LIKE A DUCK (words by me, art by Maria Lebedeva), with and without costumes!

Because sometimes, good things come in weird packages 💚

Happy Friyay! Whilst I am on my course, I'm sharing an oldie, mainly because the weather has been terrible (rain, wind, cold...) and it's feeling like winter today 🥶

Any new colour suggestions you'd like to see?

I'm going to be a bit quiet over the next few weeks (posting sporadically). I've decided to take part in an art course. It's good fun so far!

Hope you've had a great weekend! Here's a piece I produced for World Book Day. I felt like it needed something extra so I've added a few extra details and a quote, which you can see a glimpse of 👧🏾📚

Bonfire night composition from last year. Luckily I've not heard many fireworks go off this evening, so my kittycat Willow will be super pleased!

This Norwegian stabbur, ca 1700, one of the oldest buildings in the region. Used to store foods & other things off of the ground, away from animals.

I'm not OK, for all the Crone reasons.

We know where her house came from! Its origins, most likely!
