I am still alive and creating.  My life got a quite hectic for a while and I had to reduce my computer time a LOT, things are back to normal now though so I thought I'd check back in and admire all the eye candy that dA has to offer.

I apologise to those of you that messaged me or left me a comment and received no reply. I'm so very sorry. Thanks also for the watches (though there hasn't been much to watch lately) and the favorites too.

I intend to post some pictures of my latest custom work for those of you who'd like to know what I've been up to.

I'm excited and proud to report that an interview with me for dA's ^projecteducate has been posted today. So, if you'd like to know a bit more about me and my work please follow this news.deviantart.com/article/14…

If you have any questions please leave a comment or note me.

My thanks goes out to MyntKat for the feature article and to everyone else who takes the time to comment on my creations and for the lovely favourites too.

Best wishes

Hello everyone and Happy Christmas!

It's been ages since I posted a new journal entry. Firstly I'd like to thank everyone who sent me birthday wishes in November, I really appreciated them all. I was too busy preparing for my first show to celebrate very much this year and sadly the day passed by much like any other really.

My show has (finally) been and gone, thank gooness, and normal life has resumed again, lol. I thoroughly enjoyed the day despite being extrememly nervous about it. It went well I think and quite a few of my animals founds new homes to go to. There are just a couple left if anybody is interested in checking them out on my website.

The British Bear Fair took place on the 12th December and I'm thrilled to announce that my Edible Dormouse came away with 2nd place in the 'furry friends' category. He was very pleased to win the award and smiled about it all the way home.

Now that the shows and Christmas preparations are over with I am happy to report that I'm getting stuck into the custom orders that I have patiently waiting. If you are on that list, fear not I'm am working towards them slowly. I have lots of new animals that are planned for next year and can't wait till they are ready to show you.

A hope that you are having a great festive period.

Best wishes

I am so thrilled and honoured to have my Oggy featured in a daily deviation. Thank you so much dedredhead, DianePhotos and MyntKat.

When I was sewing Oggy I did wonder if anybody would be interested in seeing such a creation. After all they are not your typical cute ball of fluff with their oversized eyes and super long fingers. It seems like I needn't have worried though there are lots of people who find these gremlins totally adorable and fascinating. Go tarsiers!

Many thanks for all your wonderful comments, favs, watches and llamas. You guys rock!!

Kind regards
