Hand Drawn Floral of my own design

Because my style is very traditional and fairly tight! People often assume these designs are ripped right out of a decoupage source book of some kind or that they are imitations from other existing designs. This is not the case!! and its because I put so much work into this stuff, that I need to repeatedly make this point. Of course my work is inspired by 17th/18th century botanical prints, but its all my work. More details of my processes will be included on my website which is very nearly there...

Mouse Necklace!

While working in Boda Bar on leith walk, I spotted this guy in the bar playing with a mouse. Its his pet and he brings it out with him most places he goes, not sure why, maybe to attract strange girls like me!
I made a bee line for him and asked if it was indeed a mouse he had in his hands! It was and I asked if I could play with it.. please bare with me, I know how this is sounding, but as the above photo validates, it was a real mouse and I got a shot with him.
