Pet Portraits and Wildlife Art

Well isn't life grand, now that we've had two days of sunshine in a row I'm starting to feel a little summer in my blood, however as we all know the great English weather is not very consistant and especially as it's a bank holiday tomorrow with most people having a day of work, the forecast says to expect rain again! Monday and Tuesday of last week were a bit of a wash out and we were working so far from the truck we got stuck out in the pouring rain for hours (day job) as a result we looked liked death on legs, all cold and soaking wet so after that I have decided to make the most of every minute of sunshine so that this year's wonderful summertime does not pass me by, hence the lack of updates, lack of art and much fun out in the great outdoors!

As you can see Willow appreciates the outdoors life aswell, she is no carpet dog and will happily stay outside in the rain rather than having to stay indoors! She's pretty good at football now, although she has punctured this ball (I treated her to a new one today) and will drop it at my feet every few paces so I can kick it and she can chase it, when other things distract me she simply lies by her ball until I get back to her, the problem is she can play for hours!

Anyway today was Abergavenny steam rally, a great day out and for the first time in 3 years it was a sunny day! Last year we even had to buy umbrellas and a pair of wellies! And for once, I remembered my camera so I've taken a few pics you may or may not find interesting. These cars are all Alvis cars, an old make unfortunately not around anymore, they were high prestige cars as you can probably tell and I love them, I really do have a bit of a thing about cars, more so than Ronnie, in fact a lot more! When I am rich and have ample spare cash I don't want a Rolls Royce or anything but I would give anything to own an MGA roadster. What a car! Unfortunatley I didn't get a photo of one today but I'm sure if I remember my camera to the next 20 shows lined up I'll get a photo to show you!!!
