Still struggling :(

I'm still going through an art block at the moment and haven't really painted in months! It is soooo frustrating. So in the meantime i'm just going to do a bit of craft and this n that until i get inspired again. I've painted some little bits of driftwood and i will be turning them into sweet little brooches :)

A few pics from the weekend at Exmouth.





I have just returned from a long weekend away in Exmouth. We stayed on a cheap caravan holiday to just have a quick break away. The weather wasn't too glorious so not many photos were taken. Plus alot of it was spent in cosy pubs eating haha. We went to a la Ronde which is a national trust house in Exmouth. A house which has 16 sides and is just stunning. The house had so many nooks and crannys and so sweet. The cousins who lived there were so creative and had some stunning collections of shells etc. Definetly worth a visit if you are in the area, Oh and the cream tea scones are massive......yumyum!
We also went to the Donkey Sanctary at Sidmouth, again it's well woth a visit and free to get in. They look after about 400 donkeys!!!!! They are all really well looked after and was nice to stroll around and stroke the cute donkeys :)
We also did the usual and looked for fossils on the jurrasic coast (we found a few ;) )
But mainly ate loads, played board games in the caravan and just relaxed :D

Slow moving.


Sorry i'm in a bit of a block at the moment. I'm not feeling much inspiration or energy in my creative juices at the moment :( Hopefully i'll get a burst of excitement soon. I did paint this little mixed media painting the other day. Paper boats in her hair. I'm quite pleased with it. I like the swirl of wave on her head hehe.
