morning all…
Fab work as always Max…glad you survived your day.
Blue tits are so tiny and sweet. They whizz in quickly pinch a peanut and are gone within seconds in our garden…
It always makes me smile because the large birds…Jays, ravens etc…spend ages trying to pluck up the courage and often fly away without anything because something has made them jump.
I managed a 4x6 acrylic on canvas yesterday…not very nice one…another one for the discount shop…:wink:

Ooh ooh ooh have you seen the January seller newsletter? Our humble art chat thread gets a big shout out! Hello and welcome to any newcomers!

Love that bluetit Max, this is a lovely new range.

I’ve spent a couple of hours on the baby portrait this morning, After a bit of a hiccup and having to start again it’s coming along really well.

Good luck with your miniatures fair Hazel (:

This afternoon I’ve been working on my next dolls house miniature magazine article. I’m working in 1/24th scale for this one, but given that the original is over 3 metres tall it’s not too much of a challenge lol. I’m tired now though, think I’ll go and play with the budgies for a bit.

Thanks! Yes it’s great that we’re getting some publicity. I’m sure there are lots of sellers of art on Folksy who don’t know about our thread :smile:

It should be winging its way to you as I type

Evening everyone, that’s good Margaret, glad it was useful and it seemed like a bargain!

I was pleasantly surprised to see our humble little thread on the news letter, but then I guess it has been going for quite a few years, you started about the same time as the daily listing thread I think didn’t you Benda?

Just off out to art club not a clue what Im going to paint, hubby just made me giggle called it off to play group lol!

It’s at least three years ago if not four.

I’m just back from an open evening at our local art gallery which was fun. Showed one of the artists one of my ACEO photo albums and she was very impressed. :slight_smile:
