Black Canvas

Warning: this isn't the sanest or happiest of my blog entries...

I woke up today to discover that both my legs are paralyzed.
Its a dark place to be.
Listening to music and scribbling in my diary is all that keeps me going.

I want to crawl into one of my paper gardens and fly away with the black birds....

A little sad....

Well it's been a long month, a long year to be precise! I've been in and out of doctor's offices more than I can count, and for the third time this year I am being admitted to hospital today. I've been battling a very sinister and sneaky disease this past year...I've missed being healthy, I've missed being able to do little everyday things and this month I have missed most of all my drawing and painting!
I do hope this is all over soon...
For the meantime just wanted to say thank you all those who have been so supportive through all this!
Sending you lots of love and hope to see you all soon!

Love
Lily Moon

Messenger Birds.....

Ramses: Delivers mainly love letters....he is quite shy, cries easily, likes to hide away in ferns and desperately wants to learn to sing (he believes he was a nightingale in a previous life)....
Ariadne: Delivers mainly good news...She may look pensive, but she is of a perky and adventurous nature... Sugar coated peanuts are her favourite snack (and she won't say no to a margarita bird bath)...

and last but not least my beloved No'e : He just likes to sit on your shoulder when you are feeling lonely....

The above prints are currently available exclusively for the month of August at my brand new Big Cartel store here
and will be available in my Etsy store in Septemeber. :)

Sketching and listening...

...to Jacob Golden tonight...

I love listening to music while working, but he makes it difficult sometimes... have to stop every time I listen to 'Hold your hair back'.... it's that good...
