9. I don’t have room for a bookshelf - books are in storage, but I do have my next physical books to read lined up.

Caephilly castle mirroring itself #SundayPixMirror
In the morning, the moat was frozen, and all the birds that came into land skidded on the ice

I can't seem to find my bookshelf pics, and in my current place, there isn't room for a bookshelf 😭
But here's a pic of something a friend sent me when I pubbed the ramblers

Making a bag! The blue is the lining layer, the speckled is the outside.
I have put pockets everywhere I can (that makes sense). Including pen pockets.
There will also be plenty of void space

When his Wombatness turned my cardigan try on, that still had a knitting needle sticking out of it, into this delightfulness 😂

Excuse me, but please look at my cat.
She’s curled up next to me whilst sharing my blanket

She chose us when she was at her lowest, and now she lives her best life. Strangely neither of us are the spare human

Perdy has found a nip toy she really likes - which is surprising, because she hadn’t been interested in nip

Book rec - Dust by @arthurslade.bsky.social.

This is my favourite cover, although it does make it look more thriller than it actually is.

It's a very well written paranormal mystery set in a dry & dusty rural part of the US
Read it years ago & really stuck with me.

Hivemind who know about font licensing – does this look like the font is good for commercial use?

I put my lil crow friend temp tattoo up on my etsy shop, and as cute as I find him, I wasn't prepared for how well he'd fit in with the aethetic!

I did a very rough sketch of a fox and it occurred to me as I finished - I have never drawn a fox face from the front.

I feel a certain camaraderie with medieval artists who had to draw horses from the front 😂
Eye studies have gone well though

I refined my crow temp tatt so he looks much more defined - and dare I say it - refined.

I don’t want a tattoo, but if this lil guy became permanent I wouldn’t be mad about it.

Spent a chunk of time today making a plan to improve my art and find my style.

I keep drawing similar things and have reached one of those –no idea where to go next points, but with my PLN hopefully I should make more progress.

Yes, the list is extensive. Yes, it's in a spreadsheet

And with colour - can you tell what kind of bird it is?

I feel like I’m slowly finding my artistic voice, but I don’t think I’m there yet.

Turned one of my drawings into a temp tattoo!
Next time I need to cut closer to the image though.
Also the forearm is not a good placement for temp tattoos.

Had scrap fabric, had empty cat food boxes, needed storage = solution.

From the pics it does admittedly look like it was dredged up from the bottom of the scrap pile
