In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the tiger sleeps tonight....

Here is my progress so far for the Travelling Sketchbook (check the links on the right hand side) project. I'm sure the others are tutting at me and rolling their eyes, so this is acting as a little taster and a little bit of proof that it actually exists!

Red, Gold and Greeeeeeeennnnnnnn.....

I've been incredibly lax on the updating recently, what with a gazillion things on the go and my lovely, lovely week in Cornwall, but here is a section from the colour rough for Scholastic. I'm waiting on a verdict........



The main image of the scroll has a dark green background at the moment, which I think is far too dark, but we shall see what The Others think.

In other news, I seem to have mastered circular knitting on double-pointed needles. It took me three goes last night to finally realise how to actually join it together to make a tube, but I think I have the hang of it. I've even changed colours! Stripy socks here I come!



Plus, here is our first produce from the allotment! A few gorgeous, fat ruby strawberries, a huge bag of spinach, and a stumpy little carrot that I couldn't resist pulling up to see what it looked like.



All taste splendacular.
