My Creative Space



It's been the strangest of weeks...we've all been in this snow bubble where the schools have had to close and most of life around has slowed down to almost stopping. The days are spent cuddled up inside with the odd bit of snow shovelling and sledging. I find I LOVE this for the first couple of days then start to get a little stir crazy!
I've also not managed to make the drive to work yet because of roads being blocked and risk to life and limb....which you would think would bring a smile...? Nope! I'm afraid I'm one of those guilt ridden people who feels that only when I attempt the 17 miles there on cross country skis can I then hand on heart say that I couldn't make it in!!! :)
I realise that there are those of you out there who have to endure ALOT worse wintery conditions and to those I say Wow! How the heck-in-doodle do you do it??!!

Anyhoos, I had promised myself I wouldn't mention the "s" word in this post...but it's all consuming at the mo! I promise I won't mention it in the next post :)
I have started a couple of paintings....taking a more leisurely approach than lasts months challenge of one every day...so this is my entry to "my creative space" over at kootoyoo.
I hope you are all keeping cosy where ever you are x

  1. Beautiful beginnings to these paintings! (Oh how I love your style!)

    I guess misery loves company as far as snow is concerned - we've been pounded with the white stuff in my little part of the world too ;)

  2. Hi from a fellow snowed-in blogger. It is getting a bit much though I have been 'snow blogging' all week and it's probably time to change the subject but somehow it has taken over this week.

  4. Love those colours, can't wait to see how they turn out. As I can't paint at all I love to see how paintings develop.

    We've only had 1 cm of snow, not enough to play in, but enough to annoy me! x
