Met Cerys Matthews (just briefly…unfortunately we are not besties or anything yet…sigh 🩷💃🏼) Heard her songs and conversations 🎶 listened to her reading Dylan Thomas poems 📖 Sat in a warm, intimate venue (@thehoursbrecon ) and bought another poetry book after deciding beforehand that I didn’t need another poetry book! Beautiful book. What a remarkable writer he is “I have heard many years of telling, And many years should see some change. The ball I threw while playing in the park Has not yet reached the ground” Thanks to Nicky for the photo 😃 📸Looking forward to seeing your next exhibition #illustrator ‘of the future’ as written by @cerys6music 😉🧐

The sun ☀️ Woolly jumpers, hats and cosy blankets are safe in the knowledge that they live here, in Wales, loved and cherished throughout the year 🤗😁 #illustrator of the usual stuff and nonsense

🌹War if the Roses…Makers🌹🌟 February’s challenge was completed. A couple of Jaden’s tea lights have the added twist of being able to hold candle sticks as well! 🧐 I love mine but do realise that the snowdrops and daisies really needed a coloured glaze background to enhance their whiteness 🤍 March challenge is a single bud vase. I’ll be thinking of something a bit different to my usual pressed flower vases. If you’re a maker, be authentic, be happy to work at the speed you work and be supportive to fellow creatives who are showing themselves through the story telling of their work 💫✨🌱 #illustrator #potter #printmaker #woodturner @jaden.rose2 🌹❤️

“SAM! Wake up, you’re snoring”💤 Thank you Tom for prodding Sam awake during a revision lesson…sigh 😳 And take it from me that doodling during lessons does NOT get you the best grades 🙄😬 #illustrator of daily ‘stuff and nonsense’

WHAT IS WRONG WITH OUR BED??🛌 I realised hubby wasn’t getting more amorous as he was fast asleep…and yet he appeared to be edging on to MY SIDE until I’m almost rolling onto the floor. After a few nights of this I discovered that the actual cottage had shifted and the floor was even more wonky than ever 🤔 We decided to choose two hard back books to lift up the bed to make it level again. I will NOT be noting which books as I know I will seriously offend all my book loving friends 🧐😅 📚📚 (Books will be replaced by wooden blocks …eventually ) Just another day in The Roses life! 🌹 @jaden.rose2 #illustrator of earth moving moments 🛌😬

“Quiet Walks” 🤔🤫 This really was one of those experiences where the wind took my breath away and I ended up flying spectacularly above the hills 🤭💨💨🌬️ A Roman road, two stone circles, an ancient burial site, an old Welsh stone mine, good company and an abundance of Sky Larks 🩵🌿 Thank you Lisa @quiet.walks for your enthusiasm, your knowledge and your support 💫✨another special walking time over the wonderful National Park 💚 #bannaubrycheiniog #breaconbeacons #gratefulheart #illustrator of blustery moments on hilltops

🌹War of the Roses🌹 Makers 💪 wood v clay Six tea light holders trying to dry out on yet another rainy Welsh day 💨💧 I feel perhaps that I’ve taken a very light weight approach to this challenge. I’ve used the beautiful wild flowers growing side by side in the wilderness garden. Is it unusual to see snow drops alongside daisies and early buttercups 🤔🧐 @jaden.rose2 has been trying out different shapes with a piece of mahogany which I think was supposed to be used for guitar making 😳 The workshop smells woody and fabulous and so does he 😁❤️ #potter #printmaker #woodturner #maker

“Where is my saucepan?” 🤔🔍 Spent far too long looking for my favourite saucepan, only to discover later that hubby had pinched it to add to the growing collection of rain collecting vessels in the bedroom. 😬🙄 🌹Life in the day of the Roses🌹 sigh #illustrator (scribbler 😬) of missing saucepans etc!
