Turning out....
I've been tidying up and turning out, ready for when my mother visits over Christmas. I know it's a week or two away but I've got to do these things when the mood takes me. I found some scrapper board (scratch board) pictures that I did when I was at school and because they had started to deteriorate I thought I would like to post them while they were still presentable.
I can't remember very much about the young ladies now except they my have been copied from a hairdressing magazine. The last one is a composite of all the pieces Sunny D has posted for H.N.T. O.K so that's a fib, just a little one!
I was told at school that I lacked original ideas and that I would make a good teacher.........or a forger. I liked the forger bit. I was always more interested in the producing rather than the finished product, probably why I've been a butterfly as far as hobbies are concerned. I soon get bored and move on to something new.
I love the way you describe flitting from one hobby to the next as a butterfly...that so suits my own experiments with various mediums.It is the producing that gives one that feeling of....hmmm...how would one describe it....a sense of chasing beauty...creating....plus I am rarely satisfied with the finished product.
A photographer extrodinaire (so know that is misspelled!) and scratch board artiste too....plus your wonderful dry wit...your wife is one very lucky lady..
Anyway, just wanted to let you kow that I have updated my blog roll and you're on it - welcome!
I've tried many hobbies, and never seem to settle for long, hence the butterfly.
Emily. Thanks for the inclusion. Funny how all the blogs I visit belong to ladies. There must be a reason.
I'll agree with Sunny that your wife is lucky...but we are too to get these little slices of you!
I am well impressed....talent does that to me....I've none to speak of...at least not here ;)
I thank you all for giving me something to look forward to.
Well we happen to think you're a FINE speciman of a man Ian so there - put that in your pipe and smoke it!
As for us keeping you up, methinks we spend a nice proportion of our time trying to keep up with YOU :)
