If I wait until I have something interesting to say I don't think I'll ever write another blog post. I should really set aside some time every week to write something.

[Originally posted on iris-impressions.com]
My son Jupiter was born on 8 May 2011! I was induced 2 weeks early due to a pregnancy related medical condition. Apart from the induction I had a natural labour & birth which lasted all of 1.5 hours (I know you're jealous. Or if you've never given birth you probably have no idea what this means).

Art Journalling - A Safe Place
[Originally posted on iris-impressions.com]
After creating Hetty & Dimitri's painting I wanted to do art more regularly, but found doing paintings quite intimidating (especially if they're just 'for me', rather than a present). So I decided to get back into my art journal. I neglected art journalling for over a year due to judgements swirling ( Read more... ) -
