Muffin!

Despite the outward chaos, I think I might actually be getting to grips with all I had to do this week. I have finished the above, which is a Christmas gift for my niece. Here's hoping she doesn't visit the blog for a while - I know she's busy at the moment as she's coming to visit me for a long weekend tomorrow!

This is a simple Derwent Drawing Pencil portrait on a lovely piece of blue paper from the new Daler Rowney 'Murano' pastel paper, 'cool' range of colours. It was great fun to do - Muffin is an eight month old Retriever bitch and simply gorgeous, very bouncy!

I shan't be making anything for a while - other than some Christmas pennies I hope - going to be very very busy! I'll try and take some pictures of the Big Bead Fair for those of you who aren't going.

By the way, I'm considering having a Christmas Giveaway - anyone interested? Not sure what the booty will be just yet.....
