Just heard I've got a sculpture to paint this year! I'm excited because two trails had already failed to select any of mine (including my home town - AGAIN!!), and though I know there are several trails yet to decide, I was getting despondent without real cause.

Any way - Hastings want my Bayduck Tapestry design and I'm delighted! The ducks are huge, so I'm hoping me and my friend Lois, who's also had one picked, will be able to fit them both into the Makerspace building where we painted our elephants last year, because we should be getting them delivered in a couple of weeks time! Meep!

To give you an idea of the size, here's one that's already been painted by someone else.

Congrats! You are really leaving your mark on the world - and making it a better place!

Ha ha I suppose so — after last year's auctions my sculptures have now raised £135,000 for the different charities, which is a nice feeling.

That’s awesome news! Congratulations! Please post a pick whenever it is completed! Will look forward to it 🙌🏼😄
And congrats again! 🎉😄

it's not going to fit in my house, so I'm hoping I will be able to get the castors on it so I can move it around... LOL!

I always love seeing what you accomplish with your large sculptures--so much fun!

I think this one is definitely going to be fun. I'll post some pics once I start painting.

Holy Cow, that is one big ducky!
Congrats on the win!

It certainly is — no room for this one in the bath, for sure! 😂
