It's Cold - I'm dreaming in Colour

It's a little chilly here and to keep warm I've been dreaming in full colour. Does anyone else do this? Lately I've been dreaming of different colour combinations. As a kid I had this book called 'Toby's Tree' and it had the most fantastic colours. The story revolved around a tree that grew in the middle of the house and through the roof. The tree produced purple fruit. I loved the 70's pinky purple and orange combinations. This illustration is actually going to be turned into a textile collage. I've already sewn the background with balloons in different materials complete with grassy knoll.

The Sausage

We have done some puppy sitting this week, one sausage (full-o-flea and woofed incessantly), one bitsa kelpie (full-o-flea and crazy eyed) and an old obese blue heeler (full-o-flea and looks like a panda bear). Ah, the joys of looking after other people's flea-bitten mutts. Our dog is allergic to fleas so poor Jess is itching from all the other fleabags. In honour of the fleabags I drew a picture of "The Sausage and her loving owner" who loves her fleas and all.

I have finally added more items over at my shop. So go check it!
