A mix of red and blue
This colour can impress
A historical royal hue
An expensive shade
Until a method
Of manufacturing
Artificial purple
Came into view
Made by mistake
When making Quinine.
New paintings and regular art updates.

I’ve got an old song in my head and I can think of words to modernise it..apologies to the original writers…

Today’s #30daysketchbookchallenge, Day 24 was something to sit on. I wasn’t feeling well so I tried drawing a favourite sofa from the 1960’s. Drawn in the Sketch app, then adjusted in photodirector before working on it again in Sketch (second image)….

I just thought he looked so cold! Hope no one is offended. I hope you think this is funny xxx

Paws up under the thow
Head out, mirowing!
Climbs up,
Head thrown back!
Claws tear the chair arm
Jump
And
Pounce
Twist
And
Jump!
Sister runs past
Cat slalom off
Into the distance…..

Someone asked me whether I was superstitious of the day. I’m not really but I thought I would write a response :
I’m staying indoors in case a black cat crosses my path, climbs up a ladder, meets a magpie, has a fight, knocks over the ladder, which lands on a crack in the pavement, breaking the wing mirror on my car. The ladder also breaks my window and snaps the stop cock on the way down……
Now where did put my rain coat incase we have a flood….?

Old man’s bike
Has to have pockets,
Man’s old bike
Could be a plant.
Old man’s bike
Oiled and old rusted spokes
Man’s old bike
Malborough County.
Old man’s bike
Elderly wheels
Man’s old bike
With new tyres added.
Old man’s bike
Cycled up the hill.
Old man’s bike…..
He cycled down
Fell off
Landed flat on his back
Arms and legs flailing!
But old man’s bike
Was undamaged!

When your hubby
brings a cabbage home
Do you draw
a face on it?
Do you knit a scarf
For your leafy friend?
Hold a leafy party?
Do you dress it
In dolls clothes
Put tiny ballet shoes
on it’s roots?
Blusher on its cheeks?
What do you do
When you’re bored?

I had a go at this…..
I am Christine ghost of the day and the other side of the bay…………?

Playing with Messenger filters overlaid with Photodirector filters, just for fun. I hope they aren’t too scary! Sometimes you’ve got to just go for it! Apologies if these are upsetting. I wasn’t harmed in the making of them…..
