Blood will Flow

Well that was a bad fan week - I lost my draft fic for spn_cinema somehow, no idea how, but I must have deleted it before I did my backups. DOH. So I missed the draft submission deadline for that one, while I also had to admit I'm not going to get my Dean Winchester Big Bang fic done either. So I've pulled out of two challenges in the same week. I hate doing that once, let alone twice.

On the up side, I'm happy to report that my hare raised £3400 for Break kids charity in Norwich, and even better, my giraffe went for £7000 (my personal record so far!) in the auction in Worcester. Wish me luck for the other two auctions this week - the bees are on Wednesday and the car bonnet on Saturday. I should tot up what my sculpture paintings have raised so far over the last couple of years and add it to my resume!

Sunday I had David (aged 90) come supervise and talk about printing techniques, today I had Anne (aged 92) stop by to discuss what happened with my next door neighbours yesterday and check on my progress. They are both such sweeties.

After moving him to my neighbour's garage again (with the help of a wheely trolly and Paul and his little brother), I did nothing yesterday, but made good progress today.

I've finally started sketching out my references for the photo ops in Rome this year, and have also started painting my gift for Jared, though I haven't yet decided whether I'm going to give it to him in Birmingham or in Rome. It's a dilemma.

Then today I heard I am getting a giant bee to paint! Mind you, after the giraffe the bee is not that large - only 1.5m tall, a bit over 1.5m long and 85cm wide. I should be able to get him into our front room to paint, much to Paul's delight. LOL

So here are my ideas for my Alex and Jensen photo ops( Read more... )
