Desk & Shelves
A little peek into my desk & shelves in the studio.
Birdies are from Abigail Brown, Ann Wood & Gustavo Aimar.
Some of my beloved art & craft books.
Even though I can't read them my Japanese books are by far my favorite ones.
Thank you so much for being here with me this week!
Your comments always brighten my days :)
Hope you have a wonderful weekend my friends.

My list of wants far exceeds the gems I actually have in my art and craft book library. What a great collection!
Thanks for the peek into your studio. It looks to be a wonderful space for working. Tell us more about your Japanese books...what are they and why do you love them so? We're curious now!
I like the stone paperweight. That's very pretty. I used to do that with my grandmother.
Ahhh, your lovely blog makes a welcome break in the trudge of exam marking, thank you! One more week and I can start painting and making again!
Love your beautiful sketches, the shelves are pretty too!
Thank you for being there for us Geninne! Have a great weekend too! *smiles* Norma
So inspiring! Have a wonderful weekend:)
Gorgeous drawings, fancy teacup and the bird is my fav! I noticed that I am always attracted to little details on cups or birds because that's my fav part of drawing...the little details. Yours are so exquisite! If I may ask, can you recommend a book on botanicals that I can use as drawing inspiration. I can make up flowers/leaves but to do botanically correct ones, I need a drawing/image.
Today I picked another feather for you in Bruges: a black one with a blue shade on it. I am still looking for a nice piece of cotton for the inside of the tote bag I promised you. I don't forget you and I will send it to you before we go on holiday to the French Pyrenees (end of July)
A big hug

Fabulous drawings as always, so crisp and neat! What pens do you use if you don't mind me asking? These drawings have really inspired me to purchase some ink and get drawing :)xx
oh, lovely. I keep most of our Melissa Sweet books in my craft room, too : ) I interviewed her for a class I taught a few years ago and it was a highlight of my life, hee.
Oh my goodness...if only I could sit around and just draw all the things I saw. Heaven.

Love the drawings, they're great. The book-shelfs are wonderfull too, they just invite you to pic one and browse.
Such a lovely work space. I love the top pic....it's like the birds are inviting me over for a cup of tea :)
I just recently discovered your blog and became a follower; every post is a delight! Your work is beautiful.
Great work and I feel my life is awesomely dull compared to yours. See you in the art world.

I'm curious about your books so I've put some on hold at the library - thanks for the peek!
Oh! Your shelfs look like my dream library! Tehe, HAve yourself a good week!
I also have a ton of Japanese books...knitting books, and I still can't understand what they're trying to tell me. The patterns are so beautiful thought...
You never fail to inspire me, this time with your teacup and flowerpot...always something new...
Oh, also, for some reason, the thumbnail of the bird below, I though he was holding maracas LOL!
