drawing cats

I have been drawing again, mostly in fountain pen. Why, you ask? Why not. It's fun.


Honey and Miles drawn in Pilot iroshizuku "Asa-Gao" (morning glory) which is a lovely blue, with a Guru pen from Fountain Pen Revolution.



Honey lounging, drawn in Pilot iroshizuku "Tsuki-Yo" (moonlit night), with Guru pen by Fountain Pen Revolution with 1.1 stub nib.


"Marceline playing doctor", drawn in Pilot iroshizuku "Murasaki-Shikibu" violet ink, with Pilot capless Decimo with fine nib.


These are inked with Faber-Castell brush pens in Warm Grey and Cold Grey.

more ukulele

I don't get to record much, except when bub sleeps for long periods of time. She's a co-sleeping toddler and tends to wake up missing her mummy, so having hours to myself in the evenings is not really a thing. Still, I managed it the other night, so here are three more songs.

http://picosong.com/Ex3M - Country Roads X I'm Yours (overlap) - pretty great 
I rather like this one. It was a bit of a spontaneous effort, it struck me while I was listening to it on playback that I could do much more than just line the songs up one by one. 

http://picosong.com/Exni - Bubbly vs I'll Be There For You 
This one is short, but hopefully sweet.

http://picosong.com/ExqD - Rainbow vs. Still Haven't Found
And this one is a little bit extraordinary.

Ideas? Suggestions? Criticisms? Feel free to hit me up.

Ukulele

It's been a very long time since I blogged. I could say that nothing interesting has been happening; or that I am too busy with all the interesting things that have been happening; but the truth is probably closer to that I have been prioritising other things, and not sharing my life with the Internet so much.

The baby is now a toddler, and a very energetic one. She keeps us busy, and we love her so very much. It doesn't leave a lot of time for typing on a keyboard though, because she inevitably wants to 'help'!
However, I bought myself a ukulele for Christmas, and I've been playing it. Mashups are fun. So much fun that I just need to share. Such wow.
