A few weeks ago when on my travels along the Wild Atlantic Way, I stopped off at a car boot sale in Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal. I always love a bargain and enjoy looking around these sales. I saw a few lovely vintage china tea sets and paintings but finally I decided on buying this sketch/drawing which I think will look really good in my sitting room once I have it decorated. It appears to be a lady from Northern Ireland that did it and I did some research to see what the building is and it was a former prison- that may explain the bars on the windows. I have also chosen the paint for the room and next weekend I will get painting. I was away this weekend in the West of Ireland so will post about that soon too...

Here is a picture I came across yesterday when I was going through my bag of old greeting cards, I drew this one years ago and it was left among the cards. I decided to call her Miss Attitude! She has wonky fingers and a very pointy chin, haha, I ain't the greatest artist but I try and at the end of the day, God loves a trier!

Just there this evening, after feeding the dog, hoovering, doing washing and tidying up I sat down with a big mug of tea and picked up the pens to doodle. Im always scribbling and it always tends to be butterflies, bees, and flowers. Other people tend to always doodle houses and stick men and woman. Its weird how we automatically think of some things and not others, hearts is another one people doodle alot. Ivy is another thing I scribble but I suppose when your like me its a case of what can I actually draw that will look half decent. What do you always seem to scribble, doodle or draw?
