So we all survived, the Mayan's were wrong after all (knew it! Conspiracy theorys= nil points) And I don't care who thinks it's a miscaculation and it's actually 3012 that world is supposed to end... you're wrong and you know you are!

So, Christmas actually came (thank god I didn't forgo the purchasing of presents in light of the whole 21/12/12 thing) and with it came the arrival of my daughter's newest toy, a Bamboo dock and stylus. I was initially wary of this new technology (we fear change) but after my extremely IT competent eight year old gave me a lesson I was away and drawing like nobody's business.

Except my own.... I have a budding business of ebay of converting photographs into pictures which was struggling slightly due to my very hit and miss approach to drawing, sometimes it worked out fine, other days not so good- however with the new stylus I have found you can trace the outlines of figures and backgrounds to get the scale correct and after that it is just a case of printing and colouring it in... word!

Here are some examples of what I have achieved so far.

I'm pretty pleased with the results and hopefully it will serve me well.

So the final thing left to do is add a little plug (hey it's my blog! why not?) The link to my ebay shop is

and also I have added a facebook page in order to stop boring the hell out of everyone on my newsfeed (unless they want to be bored by it...) the link to that is
