Summer is on it's way I think!

It's actually getting warmer now which means I can get outside in my studio! I have been busy also getting the veg in my allotment area! Let's hope everything grows well like last year! 

I am hoping to use my garden as a focus point for photographing my work. I love flowers and nature. The garden is changing daily! 

Here is the early developments with the veggie patch :)

Dylan is also ready and waiting for the sun! He is very good at understanding when I'm working in my studio and normally sunbathes outside :) 

More posts on the developments on the veg soon! 

Tomorrow: The First Summer Month?

So tomorrow apparently is the first 'summer' month. All I can say is I am still having to have my heating on in May! How crazy is that! This time last year I was enjoying the sunshine at Burton Agnes Hall amongst the beautiful flowers!

To get you into the mood for summer (when ever it arrives) I thought I would share some of these beautiful flowers from last years post. I am hoping to get drawing these flowers after this weekends Looka Teesside event in Stockton where I have a stall. 

Enjoy.. and I hope we have a lovely sunny weekend! Roll on summer.... :)

Let These Flowers Put The Sunshine In Your Day!

There has been alot of rain about the last few days so I thought I would post these beautiful floral pics to brighten up your day. I don't know where the summer has gone, is this the end? It was definitely chilly last night! I love summer florals! I hope to see a few more before Autumn begins!

Beautiful Flowers!

One of my best friends gets married tomorrow, this morning I was helping with the flowers! They are beautiful! 

Foliage.....

You can't beat abit of foliage to draw from!

I really love the variety of shapes you get from foliage especially if it has an aged feel to it, I feel it gives it more character. Above are some snaps I took when walking about Africa.
