So on Thursday the 24th of March lots of tweeters joined forces at t</span><span style="font-family:arial;">he smu</span><span style="font-family:arial;">gglers loft and enjoyed a brilliant pirate themed night to raise money and awareness for Crewclub, I unfortunately could not make it</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> in the end but I hear it was a roaring success with many a sore head the next day.

My housemate <a href="http://mariuspalerud.blogspot.com/">Marius</a> urged me to give it a go. I was so tired when I got home tonight, I didn't think I had the concentration to eat dinner (yummy meatballs and pasta) let alone working out how to do repeat pattern on photoshop.<br /><br />It was actually a little less daunting than I thought, and was really rather enjoyable. I'm a little concerned the lines are not thick enough due to shrinking the original drawings. The deadline was tomorrow but they extended it to next week so I still have time to do another design, while tweaking the ones below.<br /><br />Here they are in repeat:<br /><br />Russian Fish Doll.......<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKGqaXzgJqDFc_8MN5xv3iCkUab0XFRMMUWq9YIGWpBV_Ub1_OKGrmrgOpLtK7-51SmNpMWmVYqlUzRdMhX27OLtyEqtfprTY65t8DeY9EauUwfwoq7kWd81Iq3ipdf6Gzy9gpvDVLjY0/s1600/blog+russian.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 226px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKGqaXzgJqDFc_8MN5xv3iCkUab0XFRMMUWq9YIGWpBV_Ub1_OKGrmrgOpLtK7-51SmNpMWmVYqlUzRdMhX27OLtyEqtfprTY65t8DeY9EauUwfwoq7kWd81Iq3ipdf6Gzy9gpvDVLjY0/s320/blog+russian.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465679388498001458" border="0" /></a>Mexican Wedding.......<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigAAzh8gDdlKAZHPYpxZVsU8srcgj2D42DS0glrD1M5LbM2Owl6a5FcNk9_gp8WbjVlaCEumnuWpjAD0gxX_BYDbHhTcyrG_Jf7uyneB6VvNzc5JZa_uU3lSalr_RBn0Ey1BMsOkJQJkY/s1600/mexican+blog.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 226px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigAAzh8gDdlKAZHPYpxZVsU8srcgj2D42DS0glrD1M5LbM2Owl6a5FcNk9_gp8WbjVlaCEumnuWpjAD0gxX_BYDbHhTcyrG_Jf7uyneB6VvNzc5JZa_uU3lSalr_RBn0Ey1BMsOkJQJkY/s320/mexican+blog.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465679811502858034" border="0" /></a><br />I hope you like them!?Libby Grace Freshwaterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00874376458056223516noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-251586195748356912.post-74147116290909027622010-03-21T22:16:00.005+00:002010-03-21T22:41:28.942+00:00My Girls.Its Sunday evening, it seems as though I do most of my posts on Sunday. I need to blog more often!<br /><br />Anyway, i wanted to share a special image with you. My boyfriend introduced me to the little feathery (or not so feathery) girls about two weeks ago.

Two of my favourite things are knitwear and hens. It's an organisation called <a href="http://littlehenrescue.co.uk/default.aspx">Little Hen Rescue</a> that help to re home the working girls from battery farms. There's a group of <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8537773.stm">Somerset knitters</a> producing these lovely little jumpers for donation to the Little Hen Rescue. The jumpers will keep them nice and warm as they have lost most of there feathers! I think its brilliant and i want to adopt one. I'd call her Maudy and she would wear the jumper on the far left.<br /><br />Here is a bird i have drawn with a few more feathers and a magic tail trail. I think she would look good in knitwear too.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWU-mshpRIAFPTJ6KeBuBwXprCZFmeUw6U98MEEam5y3Bhuep5IbIRVrB34sCBG5lC0Nd7JJrRbY0f7ivnhkKoDUIAMvieJzT4dR65rSJ2GwNSRF5q9ojCUL_2LN4NOsy5Xn7vszUnbRs/s1600-h/birdy+3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWU-mshpRIAFPTJ6KeBuBwXprCZFmeUw6U98MEEam5y3Bhuep5IbIRVrB34sCBG5lC0Nd7JJrRbY0f7ivnhkKoDUIAMvieJzT4dR65rSJ2GwNSRF5q9ojCUL_2LN4NOsy5Xn7vszUnbRs/s320/birdy+3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5451219002257549778" border="0" /></a>Libby Grace Freshwaterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00874376458056223516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-251586195748356912.post-76450483100633120192010-03-09T19:38:00.005+00:002010-03-10T09:58:31.184+00:00The Odd Couple.Its Tuesday evening, i have been swimming and had quite a lot of chocolate milk.

Its 23:03. Its bed time but its also new post time. I had an urge to share and show you something.<br />I have decided to take photographs and get others to photograph my work among the different houses it lives in. I was at my parents the other weekend and took a wee photo of the Hairy Cat at the top of the stairs.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">This was my Mothers birthday present last year. She opened it in front of my massively large family and little sniggers errupted. As they could see nothing other than a tiny little pee wee.<br /><br />For some reason people seem to think that phallic symbols appear in many of my drawings. I have in the past noticed this, but by no means is this an intentional act.<br /><br />I am of course a sweet and innocent gal!?<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-UdpYdW01S7V28ILDV88uWoKIrb4IT1vAnmZzDGewuhUlWTlk6UFswvFT50LoL8zBYETo2xIZw6oNYfmajb6rhnowxYQbr3OCPjmAJQCeLXzLAw1wZEr68VwRO5FvEEcZXqcGq7QmxU/s1600-h/feb+10+014.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 305px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-UdpYdW01S7V28ILDV88uWoKIrb4IT1vAnmZzDGewuhUlWTlk6UFswvFT50LoL8zBYETo2xIZw6oNYfmajb6rhnowxYQbr3OCPjmAJQCeLXzLAw1wZEr68VwRO5FvEEcZXqcGq7QmxU/s320/feb+10+014.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441209615685995762" border="0" /></a>Can you spot the phallic imagery??<br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>Libby Grace Freshwaterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00874376458056223516noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-251586195748356912.post-56235129757096665632010-02-18T13:12:00.004+00:002010-02-18T13:32:36.772+00:00Weird and Wonderful Collaboration<span style="font-family:arial;">I havnt done many collaborations in my</span> time, <span style="font-family:arial;">but i think its time to start. Every artisit is different and to then get involved with another creative person is scary yet exciting. Not sure what kind of boundaries you might cross and lines you might blur. One evening myself and my dear friend <a href="http://www.rachelalicearguile.blogspot.com/">Rachel</a> sat down together for a nice chillaxing evening. We decided to get my sketchbook out and do a little collaboration of sorts. We wanted to pick a location and the location we picked was the beach. A love to all. Rachel and i dont tend to sit in silence very much, but we sat there that wintery eve and didnt mutter a word while we scribbled away in my little sketchbook. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">There was not really a moment when we realised what we had created, until it was time to take a look from further back. We immediately burst into laughter. We could really describe what we had done. It was somewhat a hideous masterpiece. And i love it to this day, i think without a doubt most scenic beaches throughout the country should look and feel like this in the summer time.</span><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:arial;">So without further ramblings.......i present to you Libby and <a href="http://www.rachelalicearguile.blogspot.com">Rachels</a> collaboration.</p></span><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 230px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439574296375709330" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdmc7cIVVdoA-AqHLax5mrEJX59m8hqfkvGP5FP0Bj3jOn8AfOC_jOX7rPtpg0jZI7F8QYWHFP7-193wawn7F17sChIT1aVooGyfNmG45opnTB0gfiivCoK-ETzrsUm3JuUxq0dC95bqc/s320/CCF13112009_00000.jpg" />Libby Grace Freshwaterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00874376458056223516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-251586195748356912.post-8183482150127936692010-01-28T22:12:00.008+00:002010-01-28T22:30:13.813+00:00Some new things i done.Just thought i would post up a few new drawings i have done recently. And one Mr. "Birdman" i am currently working on, he is stuck to my bedroom wall. My wall is the best studio i have, at least i can hear the drunks of Western road while i'm hard at work, trying to be creative. Actually i did have a nice chat with a Big Issue man the other day. He wanted to see the drawings i was holding. He seemed very interested and i showed him. Then he proceeded to tell me to 'not work too hard'............<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJoPQjqXrXodtds3pn-N9CmnGkl-quLE__qqLB5om0UqbmqgutQkj-X3tF2ORV8Ahf8ufc1FHcfCcM56BVCYjTwKlTyISZ0TGtWc-UN5dxPebDw-4kR3GZUopb-BWJzr56XDaIpQjR8jg/s1600-h/work+599.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 246px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJoPQjqXrXodtds3pn-N9CmnGkl-quLE__qqLB5om0UqbmqgutQkj-X3tF2ORV8Ahf8ufc1FHcfCcM56BVCYjTwKlTyISZ0TGtWc-UN5dxPebDw-4kR3GZUopb-BWJzr56XDaIpQjR8jg/s320/work+599.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431918031448246482" border="0" /></a><br />Ahhhh the Diamond Doll.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsH_JXtN5-iQIbhLsAMPgXAZmWGb2Jv8m8PvCvWAwhen6uHnjJ0O5egmz6HNfnjoj5FvJl1RnAN7qz9L0dR97lAzeKrEIlKonyHj_z-Vjd2OU9aafzdVQda5FkXvZXzR-_RpWi92BqVnQ/s1600-h/work+596.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsH_JXtN5-iQIbhLsAMPgXAZmWGb2Jv8m8PvCvWAwhen6uHnjJ0O5egmz6HNfnjoj5FvJl1RnAN7qz9L0dR97lAzeKrEIlKonyHj_z-Vjd2OU9aafzdVQda5FkXvZXzR-_RpWi92BqVnQ/s320/work+596.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431918688879245106" border="0" /></a>Quote from my sister "Fire breathing rabbit with long hair"<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS48XjfHAW6HLW7rpkqhWcSAbsURaIkZR-HJXVMl2YY0mjTHZ82PH-ODDtWgbul3OQc-e0koT9OkyK0ZQadbcidYJ_wM-RYuCXoc13oDnpoRxX_phLqT1g9aLKQypBNW43XTKcHReDOpg/s1600-h/work+593.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 291px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS48XjfHAW6HLW7rpkqhWcSAbsURaIkZR-HJXVMl2YY0mjTHZ82PH-ODDtWgbul3OQc-e0koT9OkyK0ZQadbcidYJ_wM-RYuCXoc13oDnpoRxX_phLqT1g9aLKQypBNW43XTKcHReDOpg/s320/work+593.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431919505362829858" border="0" /></a><br />American shack.....in progress.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ1l6OsClp9leUnvOfdks1h0DBnwCaxrhGaTrkKUfRvCnxxgJNEK2V1AWQGmqCNfoMZL3PuOJxhCp_XFMBefnK_4WGDa1MAolLPK2fOzQjKsLHSg594tTqfL0ZSW87QJDeKCh9AmFdokQ/s1600-h/work+590.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 247px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ1l6OsClp9leUnvOfdks1h0DBnwCaxrhGaTrkKUfRvCnxxgJNEK2V1AWQGmqCNfoMZL3PuOJxhCp_XFMBefnK_4WGDa1MAolLPK2fOzQjKsLHSg594tTqfL0ZSW87QJDeKCh9AmFdokQ/s320/work+590.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431919786037215890" border="0" /></a><br />My big Birdman, he is in progress.

I have no excuse really, apart form my raging social life!! or the fact i like to go to bed at 8pm these days. Right so tonight i thought i'd share some home made cards with you. Some are old some are new.
