🌸 I loved making this dot-work tattoo design a few years ago for the lovely @clairesutherland2001 🌸
A happy little quokka to cheer you up on another Isolation Monday... ⁣ 🐻 😎 💕 ⁣ #staypositive ⁣ #stayhomestaysafe
🌈 Operation Isolation⁣ 🌈 ⁣⁣⁣⁣ A poem, by Yuliya Pankratova⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ ‘Stay at home’ the TV said -⁣⁣⁣ So Rayne curled up in her bed. ⁣⁣⁣ Sonny called all of his friends,⁣⁣⁣ To unpick the odds and ends.⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Lonely and afraid, Rayne cried, ⁣⁣⁣ ‘Will my pals cast me aside?⁣⁣⁣ If we can’t play everyday,⁣⁣⁣ There won‘t be a thing to say.’⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Sonny stayed stuck to the phone,⁣⁣⁣ To forget he was alone. ⁣⁣⁣ Empty chatter filled the air, ⁣⁣⁣ Softly stalling his despair.⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Once her cries and his calls ended, ⁣⁣⁣ Rayne found her friends weren’t offended. ⁣⁣⁣ Sonny found his mates were tired, ⁣⁣⁣ Me-time was what they desired. ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ ‘Operation Isolation’:⁣⁣⁣ Time to make a new creation. ⁣⁣⁣ Learning how to be alone, ⁣⁣⁣ Helped to get them in the zone! ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Isolation Inspiration,⁣⁣⁣ Rayne and Sonny’s motivation.⁣⁣⁣ One day, we’ll be painting frescoes,⁣⁣⁣ But for now, let’s draw some rainbows!⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ 🎨 🖍🌈 ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The poem is inspired by the #rainbowtrail initiative, which has kids drawing rainbows and sticking them in their windows, showing solidarity in thier isolation. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If you like it, please give it a share!⁣⁣ ⁣(You can also see the full image and poem together in my story.) @who @unitednations
🌸 Continuing my mission of painting things around the house, I found my old dry shampoo bottle... One thing lead to another. And I’ve basically got a @batiste_hair ad! 💨💁‍♀️ ⁣ ⁣ #isolationcreation #dryshampooandpushthrough

🌊 On my search around the house for things to paint, I came across the glass bowl of shells @mikeshootsthings and I have collected from various beaches we have been lucky enough to travel to. ⁣ ⁣ So, with ‘The Secret Commonwealth’ (by @philippullmanofficial) audiobook playing, I got painting and remembering. ⁣ ⁣ Social distancing has its moments... 🐚🌊
As this scary time unfolds around us, I’m sitting at home worrying, but mostly art-ing (🐶 like this pet portrait commission for Mother’s Day 🐶). ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ This is the positive I have tried to fish out of all this fear and uncertainty. It is that suddenly, unexpectedly, we have time. Time to do nothing. Time to try something new. Time to mess it up and laugh about it. Time to try again. ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ I have already almost completed my Life Admin to-do list! And that’s been stubbornly camped out in my Notes for months. ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ So for the next while, I’ll be art-ing away. And maybe I’ll try some new stuff too... Because for once, I have the time.⁣ ⁣⁣ Wishing everyone all the best 😘
🌞 🌧 I’m working on a new story idea! 🌧🌞 ⁣ ⁣ I love the excitement at the beginning stages of a new idea💡Now fingers crossed @bolognachildrensbookfair can happen in May so I can show it round then...
