The time has come..

..to reveal that (thanks to the random number generator) the winner of the Dark Tree giveaway is L'ESPERANCE! Thank you all for taking part, make sure you pop back soon for the next one :)

Happy Sunday :)

Hello, my sunday has been very homely, with lots of sorting out stuff and clearing clutter. It has suddenly got so cold here that I have lost all desire to go outside, and snuggling at home with some nice wholesome meals and tea is just the best thing :)
I also just found out that Lulu made it to the Etsy front page again, so happy!
I hope you are all enjoying your weekend too, and don't forget to enter the Dark Tree giveaway if you haven't already xxx

GIVEAWAY!!!

As a big thank you to all you guys for supporting The Dark Tree from the start (and for all your lovely messages and comments) I have decided to have a GIVEAWAY! You can have this beautiful 'Fifi' print as well as 3 mini prints featuring Jack and Jill, Jasper and Walter. All you have to do is leave a comment below the post before the 21st of October! Big hugs and good luck xxx

Another lovely treasury, lucky Genevieve

The Ardent Sparrow

Thanks to the ardent sparrow for blogging about my little paintings, what a lovely pretty blog! Check it out here. On another note The Dark Tree has been woefully neglected by me of late, and I feel terrible.. I have been working on loads of other things some of which you can see here but I am determined to get my paints out and create some new little characters in the next couple of weeks, I am also thinking it's probably almost time for the first Dark Tree giveaway(!) so I will let you know about that soon, well bye for now... ♥

Goodness

Just some of the lovely treasuries my little bears have been in over the last few days, thanks lovely etsy people :D

Fifi the Celebrity (and another Front Page!)

Look at Fifi, posing as usual in another treasury (this one by KnotOriginal) what is she like? ;)

(Edit: Yay she made it to the front page again! 3rd time now for the Dark Tree, I feel so lucky!)

Fred and Fidelia is one of my favorite paintings yet! I love cats and dogs (and little stripey hats!), and it reminds me of someone very special... x
