Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you
I’ve decided that Gracia’s offer of “Want to play along? Please, reveal the contents of your bag” was too tempting to pass up. I plunged right in and drew my bag and its contents (some real, some imagined).
Perhaps next post I shall tackle "How does your garden grow?"... care to play along?
Now before I pop off to further work on our contribution to this forthcoming exhibition (more soon), I’d like to send a huge thank-you to Lisa, Alyssa and Eshu for their snail mail parcels of late. All your goodies and treats were so unexpected and delightful to receive. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. You are all such wonderful friends.
Medium: felt tip pen scribbles in my diary and Indian ink pen/brush on paper.










Spot the odd one out? Hmm... could it be the rather contented looking penguin?
As to the snail mail, aren't we a pair of lucky ducks? Yes, two very lucky ducks.

love your drawings so much. maybe you need a tiny penguin to stash inside of your bag? lots of wonderful treats too. xox ps: we have some tiny radishes still growing in our garden. in durham, it is illegal to use gray water. can you believe it?

Take care.
