I am loving reading your blog... your adventures into Glasgow are very... well... telling. I hope one day to be able to travel to your land... where the people, to me at least, speak like a song. Though I haven't been there, from pictures and video I have seen the beauty of the Scottish hills seems unparalleled. Rima, I understand about the paintbrush... but where you become attached to a brush, my fingers feel most at home with a certain pencil. It's funny, isn't it?

Blessings,
Christi

Poor little brush...I am thrilled that your clock making is for you what my toy making has been for me. (Funnily enough I have been managing somehow to fit in a bit of oil painting again, and it was lovely to feel the slight give of canvas under my brush).

Your poor old paintbrush, and you managed to paint with it until the new ones arrived. A miracle!

The artwork is wonderful on your blog, and your clocks are interesting and unique.

Love the new sleek brushes. I know you like worn things, but that pitiful little brush was finished!

So sad, to let go of a favored paintbrush :( But I've kept mine even so, just so I can look at it while I work :)

Your reminder of "rain pattering on the window" has me looking forward now to our move, rather than dreading it! For we'll be going from The Land of No Summer Rain At'oll to The Land of Great Summer Storms. thanks :)

That brush definately deserves a retirement :-P. Look forward to seeing the next clocks, especially The Geographers one :-). We are also staying safe and snug inside our house whilst the rains fall.

Here via Tara - am enchanted! Determined to order a clock, but that must wait and receive proper thought first. Absolutely dazzled by your work.

Oh that poor wee paintbrush! It served you well methinks.

What a wonderful idea the Occupational Clocks are. I look forward to seeing what comes next!

Hope you get away sometime soon, and I wonder what delights you've been creating in your Wanderly Wagon!

Your book case looks like mine, I spy "Fairy Tales" illustrated By Jane Ray, isn't that a lovely book?

I am enjoying watching the progress on your clocks,- fascinating.

I adore your ideas for all the new clocks! Just wonderful, and I can't wait to see them. Also, I so enjoyed the photo of your bookshelf and turned my head to one side in order to have a look at all the captivating title therein!

That poor little paintbrush. Ready for retirement, I think!

Happy weekend!

LOL how did you paint with that brush! Just two hairs hanging on by pure luck. Such fun to clock your progress with the clocks.

I love your brush! :)

Ok, I quickly checked the shop in case you had listed the clock. I won't be on until much later but I am beyond thrilled with what you have drawn your inspiration from to make my clock. I cannot wait to have it hanging on my walls.
