Hello Friday my old friend! This week zipped past so fast for me I think I've got a bit of whiplash! Also, I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing it flashing by so fast either. On the one hand, it's Friday which is always a plus as far as I'm concerned, but on the other hand, it's also my life flashing by, isn't it? Hmmmm...food for thought.
Anyway, I've been perusing my old Kathleen Hale Orlando (The Marmalade Cat) books yet again (see previous blog post about Orlando here) and I feel the drawings still knock me off my feet with their gorgeousness. So here's some more!
Happy Friday to all you lovely people out there!
For more Orlando loveliness you can find Kathleen Hale's books available on Amazon here!
They are lovely drawings-so rich and colourful! I love your harlequin lady below too-it must have been tricky to get all those diamonds right! Have a lovely Friday-and I worry about what you said too-as in wishing life away. This month I am determined to enjoy June as I always have the most work then and kind of miss it-and that is then half the summer gone!
