Strange Girl just appeared.

I just had to make this post 

as the strangest thing

has happened to me.

Now those who know me

know that I don't do people,

apart from Egbert that is.

I love to paint fish and flowers 

and all sorts of things

but people,

no way, nada, nut,

and no how.

My people always look like aliens

with weirdly placed eyes and noses

and don't get me started on the bodies.

So as a rule

I have always avoided the human form.

Just to clarify,

Egbert Bookman

isn't human, he is a book elf

so I can paint him, although

you may have noticed

he doesn't have a body

and probably never will.

I digress.

As a rule I don't paint or draw on the weekend

as I am too busy with cleaning and playing

with little miss, but last night

as I sat on the couch just about to watch TV,

I had this weird urge to get my art journal.

Normally any attempt to pick

up a pencil is met with aww mum, play with me,

 or can I draw with you.

Meaning can I draw all over

your picture.

But this time utter silence,

so you don't look a gift horse in the mouth!

I grabbed my journal and just started drawing.

I kept seeing this girls face

and felt compelled to draw it

and draw it I did.

I have no idea who she is or where

the face came from

and I drew her completely from my imagination.

So weird, especially as I can't draw faces.

Here it is,

not anatomically perfect

but for me, it's good.

 If this is you,

I'd like to know how you got into my head

and what are you doing there.

My cheeky little miss said

it can't be a picture of you, mum 

because it doesn't have wrinkles!!

Thanks darling!

Gotta love kids.
