TITLE;- WITCH SCHOOL


This is ness and I dressed up for Halloween 2010, we were on a scrap retreat at Phillip Island with five other people. On this night we were going out to tea at the restuarant called Gullivers on the Island. We looked such a vision of weirdness and fun. We were all dressed up, witches, madien's and vampire. After we had tea we drove round and waved and yelling "Happy Halloween" to people out the car window's., and just having fun with it.We saw little kids dressed up as gholls and ghost it was great.

TCR Palette 114
Title:- Moment In Time
Here I am in 1979 dressed up like a witch for a Halloween Costume Party, I made the outfit myself and I burrowed an old broom from my mum. I was nineteen at the time and was going to a community hall with the rest of my classmates. Then it was off to a friends farm for a night of ghost stories and of course drinking weird green drinks and blood red juice, and trying to see who could scare the most people and bobbing for rotten apples. This was the end of our time at being in the final year of school, are memories.
I love these colours.

Scrap the Boys challenge for June
This is my challenge I have painted on the title and used gesso for the cow pads and sheep droppings.
This is my big brother Bill and the girls uncle, showing them around a friends farm. They were looking at the fish in the water tank and riding a horse together, uncle bill was hanging on just in case they fell. They didnt, they had the best time ever, as there were sheep following them and chickens and of course a dog or two. Thanks Uncle Bill.

CSI CASE NO, 22
TITLE:- MY FIRST KING PROTEA
This is my mum withthe first flower of the season. Her favourite flower was the King Protea.
While it was flowering if it rained mum kept a box of plastice bags near the front doo.You had know choice but to rush out and out the bag over the flowers. If they got wet they would rot on the plant., When the sun came out you had to go and take the bags off. When the house was sold we thought that who ever bought it would pull the plant out, but, just recently I went and its still there, with lots of flowers. There was about 45 when we left.
Amazing really.
