Victoria and Albert

We got a return ticket into Kings Cross and then walked to the Victoria and Albert Museum. We wandered around in there and did some drawing and went in some small spaces and saw a heron on the Serpentine and it was a good day.













Today my legs feel like they are going to fall off from walking so far but it was worth it.
Now I'm excited to finish off the last few frames on the Praktica and get it developed! Hope it worked...

New on my Etsy :)

Photos, Photos, Photos

My 222 photos arrived yesterday morning! It's so much better than just seeing them on a computer screen, I love it. I spent quite a lot of the day writing on the back of them and then putting them in photo albums and then going to the charity shop to buy 2 more photo albums because I ran out of spaces.
Now I need to get the disposable that's been floating around forever developed, and finish a film that's in my old camera and get that developed, and use my new SLR's and get them developed.
So many photos!

Looking forward to a day of drawing and then seeing mum and dad for the first time since their holiday. It'll be nice after a tiring long weekend at work to actually do some art and see all the photos that mum and dad took in Cyprus.
Excited!

p.s. if you like alien ant farm or philosophy I'm making funds by selling some bits I don't want on eBay. I have a pile of stuff but going through it gradually so as to not get overloaded with eBay things to sort out.

Postcards, Posters and Oh Comely!

Yesterday morning I received two postcards from Mum and Dad. I love getting post. I'm amazed the postcards arrived before they got home, even if it was the same day.

Last night I finally hung the Quilts poster Will got me at the V&A.
It's so pretty!

This is also pretty:



The first issue of Oh Comely! magazine.
I love love love it.
It's almost perfect. (I don't listen to the sort of music that things like this do but the interviews and photos are still good to browse and there's plenty of non music stuff in there anyway)
They give everything it's own space, it's beautifully laid out and full of such pretty things.
Love.

Also, I put some more things on my Etsy yesterday and added new photos to the screenprinted tote bags so go have a look :)
