My candle burns at both ends - and maybe through the middle!

Well - it's been the most wild ride of a week we've had in a while and I can't believe that it's not over yet! Cricket Game matches and practices and home schooling outings and school picnics and it just keeps going.

First of all the work I managed in my shortened classes Monday and Tuesday - shortened due to my hubby being away on business for those days:
The top left you saw before but the others are all new WIPs  of Scarlet from Marvel Comics
I did rotate this however when I posted it - my computer twisted it back!

Wednesday I wanted to try and put some work on my illustration course and picture book work so I sat down with the children and they worked out some of their own illustrations:


This is a picture of a family baking a cobbler on the left and a picture of swimming at the dam on the right - by Aurion  
This is a cobbler in a pan with butter and crumble on top - by Kael.
Then The Two Oceans Aquarium visit:
Clowing around with the clown fish

Fairies among the clown fish
This IS only Thursday.  I've barely managed to get my blog posted today for all the family activity.  I really hope there is time and energy left this weekend in between all the sport till to come!


My candle burns at both ends
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends -
It gives a lovely light.
