She's Arrived!

-
You might remember my daughter was expecting her baby when I last posted here. Well. quite a lot's happened since then.
Here's a picture of her below, sat on my lap when she was just a week old.


Sorry about the picture quality, the photos seem to be fading so I might have caught this one just on time!

And here she is with her newly born baby girl Maisy!

Yay! :))

Ah, Congratulations to you Jessie and to your daughter! ;-)
Such a sweet name, Maisy Marie. My middle name is Marie too!

Your illustration is cute and it would make a lovely greetings card for newborns! ;-)

Thankyou! :o)
I was very young in that picture - 18 in fact! My daughter waited until she was much older to have her first baby. I don't regret it for a second because I did a good job and now my older children are close in age to me which is lovely.xx

Wow, congratulations! I just clicked on over here from Julia Crossland's blog, so when I saw the pic of you & Maisy together, I thought you were her mom. I just have to say that you don't look old enough to be her grandmother! :)

Congrats to you & your family!

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! 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. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic.
