Jubilant WOYWW no 157

What a huge week Britain has had.

The Jubilee was fabulous

and yes, we watched it over here in Australia.

I was born in England but I am an Aussie now and

 I still love Royalty.

The closest I have to a British flag 

is hanging in my room.

It was sent to me by my wonderful

friend Angie, who lives in Essex.

She knows me well!

Today is the first day this week I have been able to 

do any art, so not much going on yet,

just my usual mess.

Just noticed that I haven't turned my

calendar over,  I've fixed that now.
Had to mention that as I forgot
last month too and got told off for it.

I have started a zentangle/mixed media pic

for this weeks Artists Playroom.

Just up to the left are my new bright watercolour wheels.

You can see the vibrant colours on a bit of paper just

below the right wheel.

I can't wait to play with them

but I can't use my fingers much

as it is freezing here

and they could snap off.

I have so many layers of clothes on 

that I can hardly move, it's only

18 deg in the house!

This is the sub-tropics, people

and we don't have heaters.

When I finish this post

I will wheel my other desk into the family room and sit

in the sun to thaw out.

Then I might be able to do more of this picture.

How on earth do you people in the northern hemisphere survive

in the cold???

While I go and thaw out

why not hop on over to Julia's

Stamping Ground and

see what people have 

on their desks

around the world.

I finished my water droplet
painting from last week

and if you are interested

you can see it here.
