Doodle for Hello Thor – go to the gig it’s going to be boomin’!

It’s been a busy week and a bit and I’m sorry but this post could turn into a bit of a brute – a friendly brute though, I promise. Firstly there’s a new print in the shop! (just scraping the March deadline) Pictured above – it’s a print of a new painting I finished the other day. Based a bit on the pocket full of black cats book cover. The print measures 7 x 9 inches and is ready for framing. Priced at £10. Bargain :)

Not only is there a print but there’s also a new(ish) tote bag in the shops! Originally the Tweet Tote was exclusive to the I dress myself website but I’m pleased as punch to announce it is now available in my etsy shop too! Horray!

Last week saw the launch of Nottingham’s new SWITCH studios. It was full of painters and doodlers hijacking the freshly painted white walls. I took a couple of pictures from the night but they aren’t that great (it was dark and I was tired) – I’ll make it one of my missions to pop back when it’s quiet and snap some more. For now here are a couple of the finished piece. (The plug socket on the wall gives you a better idea at what sort of size it is)

And finally – A massive MASSIVE thank you to everyone who bought a little something from the shop this weekend as a way of donating to the Japan Tsunami Appeal. I’ve decided to donate all of the money from those sales to the cause rather than just the 50% I originally had in mind. Hope you all had a lovely weekend :)

The title says it all really :)

I’m doodling on Saturday March 12th at the SWITCH studio launch right here in sunny Nottingham. So if you’re local and want to listen to music and watch a cluster of doodlers armed with paint take on some beautiful clean white walls – come along! (details below)

A new print now in the shop! (first this year, I think) Titled “Looking for Trouble” it measures 8″ x 10″ and is based on some of the paintings I’ve been working on recently. Here’s a link if you missed them :)

when I’ve not been doodling/working/reading/mucking about I’ve been knitting. Back to socks as you can see – they seem to be my limbo projects. I’ve got plans (and lots of wool) to make a new cardigan but seeing as I can’t get the gauge right I’ve been putting it off. I now have 1.2 multi coloured socks. I’m a little bit in love with all these self patterning wools – of course you have to go for the bonkers colour schemes to make them worth while.
