Japanese playing cards

I decided to do some more work on this project that I hadn't looked at for quite some time.

The Queen of Clubs is based on the character Momoko in the Japanese film Kamikaze Girls, who dresses in a style known as Sweet Lolita. The Joker is a maneki neko (lucky beckoning cat).

The Eight of Hearts shows ema (votive tablets), and the Eight of Spades shows non-folding fans (uchiwa).

Earring

This was more complicated than I thought - it took me an hour and a half (from the start of Panorama to the end of Holby City!).

Piglet

This little glass pig may look like he only has two legs, but I can assure you that the other two were just not visible from this angle!

Two new drawings

I haven't drawn anything for ages, so I sat down today and drew these. The Christmas bauble is one that stays out all year round because I like it so much!

Another self portrait

I was inspired by the elaborate set-ups in these photographs by Chrissie White to set up a little scene in the corner of my bedroom for this photo. I chose clothes and props that made me think of one of my favourite films, Amelie.

Decorated tins

I decorated a mint tin to store my new memory stick in, and a couple of other tins, using origami paper and Mod Podge.

Self portraits

Some self portraits taken with my new lens and remote control. I was attempting a Memoirs of a Geisha look in the second one!
