Doggy With Decor

So it's back to the day job and I'm happy to say it's very nice : )
I had a fabulous Xmas and New Year, but I must admit, I did miss my job!
I feel very fortunate that this is the case, and very thankful.

Here's to 2014 being a super year ahead x x x

A Fight For Affection - Mantelpiece Meet-Ups

The fight for someone's affection is on.
Battle between canine and feline for the love of their lives attention.
Who will win?
One of them looks like they might be winning, but it's not over yet!

A Listening Ear - Mantelpiece Meet-Ups

Something is not right over at the mantelpiece.

A listening ear is needed. We're not sure what issues are bothering the bear.

Hopefully his mate can calm the situation down!

The Reunion - Mantelpiece Meet-Ups

Once they were together, but no longer.

A chance placing whilst dusting occurs has them reunited.

But for how long?

The Apology - Mantelpiece Meet-Ups

An apology has been made, as yet we are not sure if it has been accepted.
Perhaps more is in order. She seems a little defiant.
I'm sure it will end happily.

Keeping One Another Company - More Mantelpiece Meet-Ups

I'm finding these drawings a lovely distraction and very therapeutic.
The appeal of objects, once loved, disowned, re-found and loved again, delights me.
Busy creating scenarios and imagining their pasts, fascinates me. X X X

The Loved And Once Loved - Objects Of Desire, Of Sorts

There's a massive draw towards vintage for me of late.
I've always been a collector/hoarder of tat. Well tat to some, glorious objects to me.

Years ago I did a series of drawings of ornaments/objects I owned, with lots of white space.
I have always been a fan of lots of white space.
Perhaps the portraits I'm doing of humans, has aided this return.
Today, completing this drawing, and two long tailed tits sitting less than two feet on my window sill have made me very happy.
