Hairy Cat on the wall.

Ahaaaa hello there, Its Monday. Its 23:03. Its bed time but its also new post time. I had an urge to share and show you something.
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.

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.

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.

I am of course a sweet and innocent gal!?

Can you spot the phallic imagery??

Weird and Wonderful Collaboration

I havnt done many collaborations in my time, 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 Rachel 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.

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.

So without further ramblings.......i present to you Libby and Rachels collaboration.

Some 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'............


Ahhhh the Diamond Doll.

Quote from my sister "Fire breathing rabbit with long hair"


American shack.....in progress.


My big Birdman, he is in progress. He is awaiting a colourful striped t-shirt.
And i would now like to show you little Deric. I drew him for someone special. This ones for you Deric!

Oh deary deary me.

I havn't posted anything in a long time, and its very naughty. 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. I find these days there is no way i would ever buy a card for someone, and i think that the person who was recieve a Clintons card form me would know immediately that i was in a rush or forgot! So its not an option to buy. Always homemade.

Here is a selection.

This one was for Stanley Bill Burgess. My Nephew.


I have sent this to a few people, arent they lucky?

For my sister Rosie.
A few for some work collegues, again, what lucky sods!!!

This one is a little more messy i think but the hands are rather lovely, very connected.


And finally crazy bat lady with stuck on feet..........you know..... as you do.

Comissioned Cat.



Oh its been a while since i uploaded something new to my blog.......woops. I have now moved to Brighton and have the most delightful bedroom.



But now i have moved here i must do some more drawing. My dear friend Katey "commissioned" me to draw a cat wearing a bowtie for a friend she works with, i obviously agreed. And here he is.........


Im rather tired now, and can't find the right things to say, so no stories tonight. Till next time, i will be more inventful with my next installment. Next "Commision" is a portrait of my mate NIck using watercolours, watch this space.
