A new tiny pen and ink drawing that I just finished.  It's called the Weaver Faery after the family of weaver birds that make the most incredible nests.  She is a distant cousin of theirs.  So here is the Weaver faery weaving in new ideas, new ways of thinking, and dreams not yet revealed -  she weaves beyond the limitations of our reality.  

Before I made the Weaver Faery piece I had been finding it difficult to want to draw or paint anything. So I decided to try out some stop-motion again as this often helps when I am feeling stuck.  This is one of the stop-motions I made.   I tried out shadow stop motion using a light box and paper.  I was thinking about what is feels like to be able to roam freely in nature whenever and wherever I want to, no restrictions in place and how good that feels.

A quick drawing I made yesterday after spending some time in St.Anne's garden allotments.  I usually spend a few hours a week up at St.Anne's city farm helping out with the plants and veggies.  The farm also has an allotment which is in the St. Anne's walled garden area. So I spent a a bit of time there  planting out some leafy greens.  It such a lovely space to spend time in.  There's a very peaceful feeling there, a feeling of the land, nature and plants being cared for and loved.   Some of the allotments are lovely and wild, some a bit more manicured but overall it's gorgeous. When I was leaving I remember thinking to myself that the place felt like it was full of nature spirits, happy ones at that, working together with humans.
