View From The Kit

Not bad, huh? (see below) It took a little while to get into it but as soon as I had the lesson with Cherisse, it lit the touch paper and got me hungry again. She has me learning new stuff and at first it seems like I’ll just never get it. I try the beat…

Let’s Rock!

A wonderful friend of mine in Oz – Wendy – has done these amazing rock paintings for me. When she showed me the progress of the New Gold Dream themed one a few days back, I cried my eyes out. I knew she was working on a silhouette of Jim but I wasn’t expecting that…
