Bank Holiday busy business...


Well it's hardly been a holiday today although I got what would resemble a lie-in as we didn't get up until 8am. Spent the majority of the day preparing for Red Stick Festival next week, working on my talk and powerpoint presentation. Lots of pictures to show there that, prior to now, I've never had digital images of.

Picture here is the colour version of the pencil rough I posted a few days ago for the Mackinnon & Saunders Xmas card. They ended up using a flash rendition in the end, but I still have a soft spot for the hand painted original (as is often the case).

Am appearing at Borders Teesside Park tomorrow doing Easter signings of a variety of my picture books. If you're in the area, with kids or without, do come along, if only to share a mug of coffee with me. I'm there from 11am to 1pm.

Bada Bling!

People can't afford to buy drinks in Borders,I'd have to phone up for some sort of loan first ! Nice pic,your colouring in is improving,I told you that if you got Emma to put numbers on the pic assigned to a specific colour it would make it easier !

heya Gordon

Salutations and thanks for posting, kind sir. I personally tend to go into Borders happy and come out wired having snaffled the obligatory Starbucks Grande Vanilla Latte en route through said store!

As for C&H, you should grab the Peanuts volumes in the meantime, Gordon.
