Let the small things make you smile!

So today at college we had to make up an imaginary animal and then mould it out of clay, we then had to draw it and give it a narrative. So after an hour of concentrated clay moulding i have a small, shy, furry creature called Herman sitting on my desk. He has turned in toes, a snout and little ridges on his tail, however he is always sad, for he has so much love to give but no arms to hug with - possibly the most tragic creature ever….. and this is the kind of thing we do on art foundation! :)

spent the day knitting, listening to music and making an igloo out of card, which when folded up, makes a sketchbook, the igloo will be big enough to sit inside…perhaps a more challenging construction than i first anticipated!

went for a run and was accompanied by a lost dog called Arnie,

knitted another chunk on my patchwork scarf,

made a pretty yummy supper,

ate the pretty yummy supper,

filled another few pages of my sketchbook

and wrote a song about a leopard who’s spots get washed off in the english rain.

- definitely my idea of an evening well spent!
