COR BLIMEY !! It's been a while, but busy busy !!

HELLOOOOOOO  . . . hahahaha :D

Its been a little while, I know.  But I am still here, and i have still been creating.  Just i havent been creating so much of my cartoons recently, I sort of went off tangent a little and decided to try my arty hand at some other work and painting a rather large and seemingly goes on forever fence :( . . .But that doesn't count, gardening is boring at times, i like planting seeds and stuff, but fence painting ? . . .  . . . Pass me a 10ft canvas anyday.

 Ive also been helping in School with the kids and a local artist, creating new wall murals for the school yard NOW THIS WAS FUN, VERY FUN, And i learnt lots too  .  . ..  . See like i say, Busy, busy :)

 I think after cartooning like crazy trying to get my final illustrations complete (Which may i add, i almost have completed . . .The 'Almost bit' is hard to swallow, I neeeeed to have these done very very soon !) BUT I hit a wall, so to speak . . .A big one with huuuuge bricks and i just needed a break from my cartoon brain and time to relight my inner creative light :)

So i created some different peices, I did a couple of horses, a few birds, a couple sandy beaches, bit dishy dashy here and a wishy washy there, and i even tried a person ! . .  . YEP, A 'real' looking person :) No quirky cute nose and twidly little cartoon fingers, A whole heap of pain in the butt, mind boggling shading to resemble the human features !! . . . .Remind me again why we can't have cute little button noses, and paws for feet and hands ?? Never mind . . . The challenge did me very good to be honest, and i really was pleased with the results :)

Here is couple 'Non' Googly GeeGee's I have created over last few weeks whilst i took a break from the cartoon brain. Lets call it . . . .A bit of a holiday :)

Elements of illusion ~ Acrylic

But my CARTOON head is back on now. And im feeling back into full motion, I think haha.
So now i can continue with my final illustrations for my book, and crack on with some exciting things i have lined up for you all. I have lots of ideas wizzing round, just wish i had some extra arms to hold the darn paintbrushes !!  Never mind, One must not winge, but just jilly jolly on and get there happy and in my own time, rather than rushed and bundled.

One painting i cannot wait to get onto is the final of the larger peices for the Summer 2013 peices. This one will be titled Beach Babes and will be the GeeGee's sunning themselves on their Jolly holiday. This is a very exciting collection that i have really enjoyed working on and getting together. I have almost finished the Airport but it is simply mind boggling crazy materiel . . . .You go dizzy working on it longer than a couple of hours, ive had to put it away for a while, but it will come back out soon Pheeeew !

Here is one of the Smaller peices to go on display with the summer collection.

'Orienteering GeeGee's'

'Oh dear, something tells me they may be lost, I quickly snapped a photo of them with that confused expression and wonder on their faces . . . .Then i promptly turned the map the right way round for them, and pointed them in the right direction '

Good deed done for the day.

So what else have i been cartooning lately ?

 WELL GUESS WHAT ? !!

I AM GOING TO HAVE MY OWN STUDIO SPACE !!

Yep like a REAL Studio, a place to go where i dont have to listen to Peppa pig, repetitive tunes on a running outta battery toy, clunk, clunk, clunk, as spiderman plays pinball around the living room !

YES . . . . . Finally a little 'Escape' Pad, In the garden :)

We are gunna start building work very soon, and this will be a perfect place to display my work instead of it been piled in . . . .'Cough'    . . . In Neat and tidy piles around my increasingly bursting home ! This will happen of course . . . .WHEN IT HAPPENS, But even sooooo EXCITING :)

Well, I will update very soon when i get some more craaaazy creations created :)

Until then here is a GeeGee who i just HAD TO Create, I love this song at the moment, Naughty boy ~ Sam smith. And this GeeGee was more than happy to slip into the costume of the little boy in the dance video and give me his best LaLaLa :D

Well, till next time, goodbye and enjoy that big yellow thing in the sky . . . .Apparently it's called sunshine, and we dont get it that often so make sure you make the most of it :D
