I’m not sure which one I like best. I have some ideas for a paper/wire armature type thing which I shall be blogging about soon.
In the meantime, check out peopletoo.ru for some amazing paper models.

Today I decided to have a go at painting something that exists in real life. I definitely need some practice.
As I was painting the house with the chimney, this robin came within a few feet of me. I think he was trying to retrieve a cracker, or something, from the lawn.

That is not a cloud, but the back of a cloud. Cannot you see that everything is stooping and hiding a face? If we could only get round in front…
