I posted this painting back in May after Holly won a pet portrait on Carly's blog. Holly posted this photo last week of the subject, Squirt, admiring himself. So cute!
I'd love to work on improving my pet portraits, so perhaps that's another thing I'll focus on now we're all settled in our new place. I'm now thinking I might use the kitchen table as my art space. We have set up the PC on my old art table in the lounge and I initially thought I'd paint there too but it's not really big enough. Also, I know I'd end up getting distracted by the computer/TV/view, so it's not really ideal.
I think as long as I can get the kitchen warm and comfortable during winter, it should be good- it's not like we're ever actually going to eat at the table, let's be honest!
Still no internet at home of course, my aunt's loaned me a computer for a couple of hours. Supposedly it will be connected on Monday, but since they can't tell us what time of day a contractor will show up I'd say it's fairly likely we'll come home to a 'card to call'. So. Annoying.
Have a happy weekend all- we're facing a 'weatherbomb' here according to the news. Lots of cold wind and rain so far today, but I'd rather like some thunder and lightning too. Sigh, it's officially autumn.

Weatherbomb? That sounds intense. So funny to hear you say that "autumn is approaching" when we're gearing up for spring :) Love that portrait by the way!

Can't wait to see some of the new things you create in your new apartment!
What a bummer that you're having such a hard time getting connected. Blah.
Hope you have a great weekend!
