And I'm......Back!

Last weekend, I was away visiting family, followed by some recuperating before returning to routine.   (Jeez, its only a 6 hour drive each way, you'd almost thing I was getting.....) Anyway, with chilly showers outside today, I stayed inside and painted Lady Violet. 

Not looking so bad for a hastily dressed, 100 year old lady really.

My plans for a Cross Border, "Post the worst of Covid", return to Huzzah in May, have hit some wrinkles and I'm now examining the possiblity  of a first visit to Havoc in the Boston area at the beginning of April. If it works, she'll be there with me.

Uhmm, no, that's not me escorting Lady Violet...

More bad weather on Thursday if I'm lucky.

  1. I'm sure Lady Violet and escort will be welcome at either event (or both!)

    1. Apparantly she came from a set of medieval figures but luckily I don't know all that much about female fashions so she works for me...well not "works" works....

  5. Looks great! Reminds me of a mounted version of the figures on a tin of Quality Street sweeties.

    1. Now that you mention it.....(hmmm my very late mother-in-law always had Quality St at Christmas, haven't had any now in....well, years anyway)

    1. Thanks. I was a little surprised that Rob managed to coax such a good casting from such an old metal mould. Naturally the most visible flaw was on her face but with a little make up.....

    1. I suppose one could say the youngest member of an old family.

  8. She looks ‘well posh’…
    One gets the feeling that the escort is merely tolerated.

    All the best. Aly
