I now know where all the time goes; its things like accounts and the marketing. This is the first build of my new news letter, please sign up for it here if you are interested in receiving a missive every few months and it could be months before I actually decide on a version I like. I am trying to keep it really simple, it is just another way of keeping in touch and distributing news. It won't be in Latin by the way, that is designer filler..apparently (eyes roll up to the ceiling, I have to live with this). New addition is a Spanish translation on the home page. Oh, this is news isn't it, I should have saved that bit. Never mind you heard it here first.
I am also working on a video diary which is going to be a hoot, let me tell you all previous attempts have been hilarious. I need to buy some serious editing software before I go any further otherwise the full boring unedited version could be out there at cinema near you, not suitable for a nervous disposition!
Dull in Andalusia today, the first clouds we have seen for weeks and weeks.
Coming along here, you can see the outline of the cat. Colours change and hopefully the cat is going to be ginger. This one is Pickles. The other side will have Gi Gi the black cat.
A big image for a tiny moth, so click on it for a bigger view. These moths are all over our village here in Granada at the moment, never seen them before and certainly not in these numbers. They come from Africa and are a hot weather moth.
Another tile, I am getting some stock ready for my online shop on my website for the Christmas rush. Here she is, that mad bird Vivien in the raw and not finished yet, I am thinking eggs or foliage and wish I had done some paper resist behind her before I began. Dots for Linda Starr!
Introducing Cat Gi Gi; my first test tile for this kitten before she goes onto the pot, see her photograph below. I thought she would be the most difficult because she is ebony black but in fact she came together quite easily, whether it will fire as I imagine is another matter or indeed if this portrait actually looks anything like her. I have used a very dark turquoise for the highlights to her fur. 
Below is my ticking counter....this is to see just how many actual contact hours I spend on this jar. So far the whole idea has been a bit depressing as I have been in the workshop for two days now and this is all I have to show for contact time! I must do an awful lot of faffing about I think, but in truth I am working on other things at the same time. It is going to be an interesting experiment.
Just had to share this one with you all
What the heck! Bird on the egg here and this is the first time I have ever put anything inside a room, so who knows what is going on with my psyche at the moment. Shown here in the raw and still not finished yet, I can see now that I look at the picture I need to get a bit more definition on that egg. It is the same ballet bird as before but now he has been left to mind the clutch (of one!).
