A Quick Hello from the depths of the School Holidays!

'Breezy' - in my Etsy shop now!

It's the school easter holidays so I've not had a chance to write a new post here for a little while! I actually have a rare quiet day today so I've taken the opportunity to put some paintings in my Etsy shop - long overdue! I've put a few examples in the right hand sidebar if you'd like a quick look :)
See you the other end of the school holiday!

Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink.
