Was hoping Jessie would sit for a portrait but not a chance....











It's a rainy day in Foxglove Lane, and I was hoping Jessie would sit for a portrait, as you know I'm a bit short of candidates (not counting the cattle and the bees).......but I got action pics instead! Jesse in and out of the water, and in and out of the water and again, and again, and again! All that effort just to make everyone delirious with joy that a green tennis ball has been rescued from the Atlantic Ocean. Well we are happy Jessie, very happy, but it's just because of your tenacity and sheer energy, we don't really love that ball like you do.......

The focus, commitment and especially the love affair with the ball I hope will inspire my own work as today I move into a new studio and feel quite challenged by that. It's full of boxes at the moment and I'm not even sure what I will be doing.......but I am here!

  2. Catriona,

    You gave me a gift. Your dog is beautiful and funny. I think Jessie is very much loved and spoilt...

  4. Hello,

    Jessie is a very fine dog. Its dynamic character comes in the run very nicely. There are very nice photos. Respect.

    many greetings

  9. Thanks for all the support, it tends to make me even more unsettled though as I am seriously intimidated by both the space and now the expectations! Lovely problem to have though, what is known as a first world dilemma:~)
