My Dear Friend Peggy. Mixed Media. 30 x 40cm.

There are so many Social Networking sites about these days, it’s really hard to know which ones to join.  It’s hard to guess which ones will be of value without frittering hours away gassing (not that I don’t like a good natter!!).  Like life isn’t hectic enough already juggling work and family life.  So of course, I joined another group today on Ning.com (thanks to Lou!) with Gary Reef, another mixed media artist!  I’m still familiarising myself with it but it does look inspiring and he teaches techniques too which I am always eager to learn as I am still finding my feet.  But I really must stop joining any more!!  Stop it Sue – Now!!  But I do intend to join Facebook, and maybe e-cademy!!  Noooo – Stop!!In between gossiping though, I have managed to create another painting.  I’m really pleased how this has turned out as it was a bit experimental.  The original idea was just a scribble I put down on paper one night when I was doodling with my daughter.  I wanted to capture the mood between two special friends.  I have never had a horse (let alone a Pegasus – how ace would that be!) and I am in awe (if not a little afraid) of them for their magnificent power.  But I know plenty of girls who love their horses and have this special relationship which I have tried to create the feel for.
