The twelve weeks of holiday art

October 5, 2009 – 2:36 pm

What a blur September was! Settling Nicco in at school and Caterina at the childminder’s, coping with mountains of laundry and a broken dishwasher…all while suddenly freelance assignments flooded in left, right and centre. I had so much work to do I barely had time to keep up with my swaps and little else. But [...]

Flowers and little more

September 15, 2009 – 8:36 pm

Well, the laundry is not quite under control yet, but I am making inroads. Between that, Nicco starting at his new school (so far so good) and Caterina starting to be looked after by a childminder (not so good, as she cries desperately when I leave her) I haven’t made so much as a scrap [...]

I am back!

August 30, 2009 – 7:38 am

Wow, what a trip. Gentle hills covered in tidy vineyards rose and fell in the embrace of a soft, cool mist in Burgundy. Each vine groaned under the weight of fat and green grapes, on the verge of turning purple and ripe. Every now and again a turreted chateau soared over the landscape, a vigilant [...]

Still alive!

July 21, 2009 – 3:26 pm

Phew! I have been on holiday for two weeks with the kids and barely managed to survive, let alone craft, make art or blog. Still, they had a whale of a time, and I managed to snap a few pictures. The sea colours were dazzling (much better than in my images) and I got some [...]

Coming soon…summer giveaway!

June 12, 2009 – 11:18 am

Anyone who has ever talked to me for more than five minutes knows I detest summer. The oppressive heat, the hundreds mosquitoes, the senseless boredom of beach life are all things I could happily do without. It’s funny because I really love autumn and winter, and rather like spring, but I do have a difficult [...]
