    Baby!

    Friday, June 13, 2008, 12:13 PM [General]

    I'm delighted to say I'm 30 weeks pregnant with our first baby! My husband and I are so excited! It's due in August. We don't know if it's a boy or a girl, their legs were firmly crossed on the last scan, and that was our last opportunity to find out until the big day. It has made baby shopping tricky!

    I'll try and limit the number of cute baby photos I post once the baby arrives!

    End World Hunger

    Wednesday, November 28, 2007, 06:37 AM [General]

    I've found a seriously addictive game; http://www.freerice.com/index.php for every word you get right they donate 20 grains of rice to the UN to help end world hunger.

    Give it a go, you won't be able to stop!

    Christmas fast approaching!

    Wednesday, November 21, 2007, 12:29 PM [General]

    Hi everyone,

    Well, the extension is finally finished and now I have all my painting gear, printing stuff, office, files, computer, scanner etc, all in the same room! So after a break of MONTHS I can finally get back to some painting soon. I've missed it so much! I can't wait to see how the firstpainting from my new studio turns out.

    Except I haven't even started Christmas shopping yet, so I need to get a bit organised on that front first!

    I have enjoyed looking at everyone else's art here, on Deviant Art, and on all of your websites. I've got some ideas for new paintings, and I can't wait to get started.

    Hello Alexandra, thank you for being part of the EF community and sharing your beautiful work. I really love your amazing Sea Siren, I can almost hear those waves crashing about her and know she'll be invigorated by them - you can tell I feel rather land-locked here too! I hope we can meet up again soon, kettle's always on here if you're ever in the Cotswolds...
    Big smiles, Be

    Your artwork is very sensitive (in a good way, of course) and your style is well suited to the ethereal. I especially love the SpiderWoman piece, and I really appreciate the ambiguity of it - I cannot tell if the maiden is kindred to the spiders or if she has fallen victim to a poison-induced slumber. I hope you do not mind if I "friend" you.
