A Pinch and a Punch and a Pouch
White rabbits! :)
Or do you say "A pinch and a punch, the first of the month!"?
I have my favourite flowers, tulips on this sunny (but very cold!) 1st of February.
It's nice to see the sun out, it's light enough to take a photo of the little phone pouch I made the other evening from some scraps of wool I had leftover that were too small for anything else,
with a handy dandy cord so it doesn't fall out of my bag and a complete stranger has to tell me that
I've dropped my phone.
Again!
So, here's my latest doodlings. I started the drawing with a fish, added the girl carrying it and she looked as though she'd quite like to tippy toe on a branch. The leaves are done using a little rubber stamp I found lurking in a cupboard when I was having a tidy up. I've liked how I've seen other people using stamps but looked at the price of them and they are a teeny bit too much for the amount of times I think I'd use them but this one (and a few others) were right there all along! :o)

And I love your painting! The starry leaves are brilliant.
So lovely to hear how your pictures evolve too. I am increasingly interested in the art/creative process for people as everyone does it so differently! :)

Re; pinch and punch - Ow, thanks - I'm black and blue now, I think I need to punch and kick for being so quick (my daughter's old retort, not mine)!
Tulips are fabulous. Have you read 'The Tulip' by Anna Pavord? It is a wonderful book about the history of the tulip and it is beautifully written.

I think your latest work is a bit more than a doodle!
She is lovely and I like that she is a bit surreal too, carrying a fish while dancing in the treetops. ;-)
I have just favourites your Etsy shop and hearts one of your paintings. I thought I was already a follower!
Best wishes,

I saw a lady in the grocery store with a lovely bouquet of orange tulips in her basket. They were like little sunshines ! Next trip, I will be putting one into my February basket too !
Have a great weekend !
how brilliant to carry such a fish while skipping along in a tree!
+ the stars compliment how magical it indeed is!!
+ the tulips are a beautiful sight in february!
