This was Ella’s card I made for her last year. Sadly Rosa’s card didn’t make it on to Milkshake this year (but I did get a nice email from the Milkshake team) so I will get cracking on an ‘Ella is 6′ card for the show in a couple of weeks.
In case you don’t know this is Oswald a really beautiful and gentle animation for children created by Dan Yaccarino.
Its little rosa’s birthday on Monday. We make a card for our kids every year (always at the last minute) to send in to early morning tv show in the UK on channel 5 called ‘milkshake’. The show CGI cartoons like noddy and rory the racing car. At 5am its dificult to be concious enough to entertain your kids so noddy will do for five minutes!
It looks a bit messy (only had messy glue) closeup but under bright tv studio lights it should hide the mess! If you squint it looks better!
Some local restaurants are displaying some of my paintings, this one is in Pizza Express by the river in Newark (UK). Its about 30″ x 40″ it was amazing fun to do. The title inspired by the Shakespeare quote:
“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”
