Can't wait to be sitting on a rock looking at the view for real.

Had run out of white/coloured card and then I remembered I still had a few animal print pieces so used this tiger stripes one as the background, added two glowing ladies (they always look glowing in glossy magazines!), a clock on a yellow wall and the inside of a used 1st class stamp book, was nearly glowing myself when I'd finished!

1st class Royal Mail, stripey patterns, clown fish, stamps, a goblet and red man on a deck chair all equal Radical Comforts!

Amelia handed me this piece which she said had got a bit stuck together when she'd made it but I told her it added to the whole design. A neat quick way to make mailart in a hurry - paint a shape/design on one side of the paper, fold in half and hey presto, a double image!

On the front page of Monday's (1st August)free paper, The Metro, there was a picture of a giant inflatable slide in Bournemouth so I took it and its bright colourful patterns as my inspiration for this piece - not sure you could slide down this but hopefully you get the idea, even bought some new pens to make this!

Inspired by the song "Black and Yellow" by Wiz Kaalifa, eldest daughter produced this piece over the weekend.

Saw the zebra tucked away at the bottom of a magazine advert and thought he had more to say and well, turns out he does and he's a bit of a fashion expert - I've always said stripes are in!

These were taken from two gift cards I bought my parents for Christmas, "artistically" arranged in an "L" shape to signify nothing in particular!
