I found the e-book version but that's all. Just a thought, I wonder if it's available in print in Australia? Shipping things down under can get pricey. Maybe Amazon-Au is just behind in posting it. I almost nothing about digital art but I understand if the pixel rate is low then the picture will look grainy. A second book and now your son is writing too! wow, Let me know if I can help out love. I'll keep checking Amazon.Au

Thanks love, I agree, the original skull and butterfly was much better.
What's your son's book about? I understand about finding time if he's working. Takes a bit just to work up the motivation to paint at the end of the day. What is a CO? Is he like a constable?

Who are Lewis and Clark? You know I'll have to investigate.lol Okay a CO, corrections officer. A bit like a constable.
I do like my privacy when I paint but I can also tune people out fair well...sometimes. There's a lot of workers at the farm right now so the bunk house is crowded. I usually have it to myself. till trying to do a bit of practice. Talk at you soon darling

Haha I thought they were a music group, but I did look them up. I remembered seeing something about them before. Maybe on tv, not sure.
It's not always easy to tune people out I agree, earbuds or head phones help but not always. The bunk house is just that. A long building, bit like a trailer I suppose, divided up into sections or dorms. Some have bunks some places for hammocks. There's a common room dining room with micro waves and a fridge. There's also a screened in porch down the length. The bathrooms and showers are in a separate building. It's fair crowded right now.
Thank you love. I'll try to work in a bit more painting time.

Yeah a bit like college dorms. Concrete floors with no carpet haha. A guy who went to school in Ontario said it was like the dorms there only warmer. The toilets don't freeze up here. Of course I bet you don't have to check for snakes before you sit.
There's only a few weeks out of the year when it's crowded. Most times I have it to myself. Then again a lot of times I'm at home sleeping in my own bed.

The concrete floor is definitely a good idea...bit cold on bare feet but still. I have to paint it every couple years too. Not as fun as it sounds. I have thought of painting the ceiling like the sky with clouds and all but my uncle said no...plus not sure I'm motivated enough.

You probably wouldn't think it cold at all here. Might be a little warm in the summer. 35c today.The ceiling was plywood panels. My idea was to take them down and paint them and then replace them. I've tried painting over my head just doing trim work. Not fun. Haha you painted while your daughter slept? No my uncle's idea of fun isn't the same as mine. I think he may of been fun at one time but then he met my aunt and I suspect she was never fun....then again she's been living with my uncle. The -neg and +pos that cancels each other out...I wonder if I could write a formula that would ...never mind.
The party usually comes after harvest. It coincides with being paid I think. I usually avoid those.
I have yet to reach a level of bonding with the farm cat that Mr. Fox has with his. I do get the occasional shin rub. Not sure what that's about. Wants a share of my tin of kippers I suspect.
Would never say no to you love.
