My studio, it has to be said, is full of many things - it is my creative nest, where I can surround myself with the treasures I have found and been given. Although I may not use many of them from day to day, they inspire and console me. Many tokens from blog and non-bloggy friends...spot the Lily Moon card from my friend Maya -
The old year ended with the little people in 'Cat's Cradle' journeying far away to their first job. It is always a wrench to know I will probably never see most of my paintings again, but good to know that they are watching over someone, somewhere.

The new year started with one of Rima's beautiful calendars. I cannot think of a nicer way of getting through the year - she still has one or two left I think, so if you hurry...

Entering January with some gorgeous letter blocks, with huge thanks to fellow illustrator Paula for her thoughtful gift...
...and my triple good luck charm, to keep bad things away from me this year, especially timewasters, as I had enough of them in 2007. White china heart from Tara, rosehip heart from Higgledy Piggledy, textile/embroidery heart from Border Tart - thank you my dears - I defy anything truly bad to happen with the combined love of these three friends.

A big red hand to point the way bravely forward to 2008 - there is something very commanding about this stern indicator. It arrived unexpectedly in the post this week, mysteriously unsigned...for a few minutes I felt like my all time hero, Tintin, receiving an anonymous signal summoning him to a new, exotic adventure. But then I remembered kind Alan Brignull of the Hedgehog Press, and his lovely picture on Flickr which I had fav'd. Thank you so much!

I am under the weather and feeling like this at the moment -
So I am going to retire for a few days, and bury myself in my sketchbook, as I seem to have got my drawing mojo back at last. Have a good weekend everyone!

Eeek! That antique table top printing press........ what a thing of beauty!!!!
Oh my, I'm drooling.
Thanks for the mention, Gretel.
That antique press is unique — made by Jabez Francis of Rochford, Essex, in about 1870. I didn't know a single one of them had survived.
You would never get me out of there, except if I was going home with it all : ) The paper Oh, the table press, double oh...
Temptations!
I love when I see things that I never knew existed on other blogs - thanks for the treat!
Wonderful stuff--wish I could have been there...
Mmmmmmmm! I can smell the printing ink! That antique press is dinky isn't it!And I love those decorative papers!
A remarkable post! Although too far from my professional interests, I'm glad I saw this virtual exhibition. I liked very much the link to the Shakespeare cards. I'll give it to my son when they begin to study Shakespeare's works at his High school. Thank you!

Beautiful stuff!!! ^^
This all looks dangerously addictive. Wish I could have been there!
