What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Pakistani Art Yesterday while I was relaxing on the recliner, I began the design for quite an ambitious thank you card that I want to make for Mr. Memon, the surgeon who operated on me last Friday to remove my breast lump. I researched both his names…
I am not sure how many blogs I will be able to visit this week as I won't have much time, during the final run-up to my operation on Friday. Edit: Well, I managed it! I visited everybody! (Thursday night.) Everything is now all set for tomorrow's Great Adventure. What's On Your Workdesk…
What's On Yur Workdesk this Wednesday? First of all, apologies for my appalling showing on WOYWW last week - it's been such a busy week and I simply didn't have time or energy to get round to visiting everyone. I will try and scroll back when I visit this week, so that I…

What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? I've been busy doing some more drawings from my Florabunda book. I've done three small drawings of potted arrangements of flowers, leaves and pods.
