Finding beauty in bleak times can be tough, but so

Finding beauty in bleak times can be tough, but sometimes those moments come by surprise and they need to be hugged close and remembered.

Wishing you all a happy weekend 💕

“ She gazed up as the sunshine’s dappled light

“ She gazed up as the sunshine’s dappled light flickered between the fluttering leaves. Allowing warming rays to dance on her belly and toes. ⁠
⁠
‘Oh, how lovely!’ - (I’m sure) she thought.⁠
⁠
Her hammock gently swayed between the branches, hugging her comfortingly and joyously. Delightfully different from her free legs, which were revelling in the playful breeze. Watching, listening, smelling - taking it all in and sensing the warm friendliness of the wilderness.⁠
⁠
Mother Nature knows how to charm - doesn’t she. My hope is that in years to come those free legs will climb everything from trees to mountains. Seeing the magnificent sights of our wondrous natural world. Because that wondrous natural world will still be there, maybe even more wondrous than before... if she is given the chance to be wooed in childhood.”⁠

A little early morning autumnal cosiness to start

A little early morning autumnal cosiness to start your day. I wonder how many little dormice are snuggled up like this, hiding from the winds we have at the moment.⁠
.⁠
I am working through ideas for colour with this pattern and not quite sure which way to take it. Any thoughts very welcome 😊⁠

‘Ok, I’ll just…’ . ‘… make a quick lun

‘Ok, I’ll just…’
.
‘… make a quick lunch for us all, then I’ll get back to do some work’.
.
So many times I have thought this, but in reality I will also mow the lawn, hang a wash out, play a quick game of ‘Guess Who’ or ‘Draughts’ (mine are loving board games at the moment!). Then I will sit back down to work.
.
I get distracted so easily and it has become super easy to lose focus with my children around. My head is so full of ideas that I need to work through. I get little pockets of time here and there where I can complete commissions but the thing I’m missing the most is time for head space. Time where I can clearly define what I need to do with my own ideas and projects. I know that that time is looming and will be here before I know it - when my children return to school. I will certainly miss them and long for the time that has been, but I will also relish the chance to just work on my illustrations… nothing else… just my illustrations.
.
And then I continue with my thoughts and think, ‘Oh we haven’t really done much with all our time together!’ But we have.
.
I looked through photos from during lockdown and realised we have had some really very special moments together. Maybe we didn’t go here or go there - even when we could. But I have oodles of photos on my phone that tell me we have made some lovely memories. This being one from back in May. A photo I din’t realise my daughter had taken.
.
So much quality time together, in our beautiful home, in the beautiful outdoors and all with my beautiful human beings - or ‘human doings!’*
.
Have you looked back through your photos and realised how much you have done too?
