YIKES!!!!


Just messing around on my new toy the other day and this is what I came up with - a self portrait!!!

Just so as not to frighten people too much I left out my sticky out teeth!!!

Seriously - I'm really enjoying this new drawing software and can't leave it alone!!  I've got a new banner here on the blog and a new one on my Etsy store.  I know I should be drawing tatting diagrams but wanted to do something else and 'just for fun'.

More of my motifs coming sooooon.

Are you having a "bad hair day"!!!! Very good, I think you have missed your vocaction as an artist, the earrings are great. Did you draw this before the wine or afterwards?!!

Gina said...

Hahahahahahahahahaha! You're having so much fun with this! Kinda like a new box of crayons, huh? Well, the more you play, the more we benefit, so play away!

I was viewing your post on google reader and you mentioned you made a new banner so I clicked through to check it out. Was just wondering if you realised that it's so wide it pushed out the edges of the browser. Otherwise it looks fine.

Glad you are enjoying the new software!

Hi M. It's very strange as I've checked the banner out on two browsers and three computers and they all look OK!!! Mind, I'm not much good at understanding sizing those things!!!
Thanks Fox. Will it be men in white coats as well?
Sally - I always have a bad hair day - mainly cause I'm just not interested in hair!!!!!

Very cute Jane!! LOL!! You are having too much fun! Are you drinking wine as you are working on your imac? Can I come over for some, or better yet, I'll bring some, dh makes wine and it is the perfect compliment to a tatting session. Rayanna will tell you that, it is our drink of choice when tatting together. LOL!!

Hi Jane, your self portrait is cute. Those eyes do look like they have a rather "fixed stare" so I hope you don't look quite like that with your eyes in real life should I ever have the privilege of meeting you! Of course, I tend to have a "fixed stare" when I see tatting so who am I to talk?

The "tatted" earrings in your self portrait are oh, so cute. I think your hair looks like one of those stylish "Chic" cuts that some people pay a lot of money for! Seriously! ;)

Tatman said...

COOL!! You did a good job on your self portrait....digitally. And even large earwigs. It is SOOO YOU!!!!

XOXO SOJ

Krystle said...

Yeah the banner is too big when I view as well. I'm on IE

Jane Eborall said...

Ah, Krystle - you're right!!! I never use IE (I use Firefox!) but have just had a look using it!!! I'll see if I can do something about that tomorrow! Thanks for telling me both of you.

M said...

Doh, I read this too late and have just uploaded to flickr (both IE and Firefox) so you could see what I mean. Sent email too.

Krystle you should give Firefox a go if you have the patience to get used to a new browser, it's so much more convenient and it sticks one to the man!

Wendy said...

Oh Jane... I would have known you anywhere

LOVE IT! YOU ARE A BLAST! Carol is true on what she says about our drink of choice. You Rock!

Oh Janey! you're a doll!

MEANWHILE back at the ridge, I am struggling to get past making an OVAL (the easiest thing)...I love your 'self-portrait' The eyes remind me of the "Runaway Bride" a few years back that ended up here in NM. LOL

Fox said...

FYI, Jane - I use Firefox (of course!) and your blog is oversized on my screen as well.
Fox : )

Nice try, Jane. I'm sure you'll do better after many more attempts. ROFLOL
