Update on Kittens and pic of my studio!

Journal Entry: Wed Oct 7, 2009, 10:05 AM
Here are some more pics of our little family. One of them appears to be a Gremlin and probably the son of a siamese that pops into our garden occasionally.











And this is my studio - thought you might like to see it. To my left is a large leather chesterfield sofa (nice to collapse into) and a big bookcase and another antique cabinet containing all my valuable samples. To my right is another cheaper cabinet with more of my samples (when I make anything for the big companies I ask for a sample at least). Behind me is another chest of drawers with all my paper/sketch books etc and a full size skeleton - very useful. There are 2 big wardrobes on the right and a nice Victorian fireplace (nice to have a real log fire). If you look in the garden you can see the railway line!

Hello.
I learnt a lot from your gallery, it's quite helpful and inspiring. And pre-A Level blues are taking their toll on me. I'll definitely keep frequenting here since your work is so lovely, and yourdescriptions and techniques are so useful :)
