WOYWW #338

I am late today as I have been 'shopping' with DDC and that meant early out and late in!!!  We have had a very successful day though so I am not complaining .... just worn out.  Not too tired to join up with my fellow deskers (see the WOYWW tab at the top of the page for more info) around the world though - I am sure it is morning somewhere ......

 So here is my desk ....


.... as you can see, blank cards, a few paintbushes, torn sketches from the newspaper and my box of paints.  Really exciting intit?!

I am about to start a few handpainted ATCs - for this swap the theme is Mug Shots.  I have thought hard and long about this subject, sourced it out with my friend Google and then went shopping at Waitrose.  Waitrose??  I hear you say ........ well, while perusing the shelves I noticed a free newspaper which, when I looked through it later at home, had several sketch photos which would be perfect for me to sketch and change.  All being present and correct I will make a start tomorrow ...... results on my ATC Blog. 

I will try to catch up with you all later, but in the meantime - have a good week.

  1. Sounds like a challenge and a half to me! You certainly found some good sketches to inspire you! We have regular trips to Waitrose these days as they sell authentic French bread and I have found that it's bringing my blood sugar down - already had my medication reduced! Off to look at what else you have been doing! Hugs, Chrisx 36

  10. As I visit everyone's desks I'm getting more and more anxious because everyone's been shopping, wrapping or doing something towards their Christmas prep! I'm only just coming around to the fact it's coming. I had a sharp shock when I realized just how quick it's coming! Gulp!
    Happy WOYWW to you

  11. Oh, a tidy, shiny desk! I can't remember when mine was last as tidy as this - it's a permanent mess just now. It looks as if you have plenty of projects lined up though and I like the magazine sketches (I even recognise a couple of those people, I think!).
    Have a lovely rest-of-the-week and enjoy your Mug Shots!
