Tangled

Personal radiator

Winter is coming...

I'd honestly be less annoying if being annoying wasn't so much fun..

Bug Bites

(the line thickness is a bit all over the place in this one..)
French countryside bugs love me. Also experienced my first ever wasp sting. I'm a big girl now

Flame On

     

Fly Bait

Hansel and Gretel

More at risk kids to keep the others company.

I'm gonna try and start completing a whole bunch of unfinished pics that have been abandoned in the woods on my laptop. Shouldn't take too long..maybe a year and a half or so...

Home Alone-ing

My sidekick left me home alone for the week, leaving me as Mighty Empress of the flat and ruler of all. This is mostly what went down...

There were meant to be more little toons for this but lets just say it hasn't been the best of weeks (aside from the cereal eating) so I couldn't get round to drawing the others :(

French 105 : Ballin'

French 104 : Lessons in weather response

 

So.. this happened multiple times during February and March when we had random days of (in my books) good weather (15/16/17 degrees). I thought the whole city was messing with me. 90% of people I passed were decked out in winter wear; thick scarves and fur trimmed hoods, the whole package, whilst I'm there burning in a t-shirt...

I guess not everywhere is like London where we greet the slightest hint of sunshine and warmth with summer clothes and trips to the seaside. We know the sun never sticks around there so we know to make the most of it when it squeezes itself in between all those grey days.

The people of Nantes must have some sort of internal temperature regulator allowing them to stick to their winter wardrobe until the official start of spring no matter the weather. It's much better now spring has officially begun and we're getting 25degrees some days. Now we're all on the same coat-free page and I can blend in better/look less like a weirdo.

I feel I've typed too much...

Mischief Fairy

There's some more french life "comic" thingys in the making (and some less in the making more in the process of floating around my head as faint ideas).
But for now, here's a fairy just because.

Remember that movie "fairy tale"? they said it was based on a true story and i was captivated by it, (does that make sense? i'm starting to forget some english. That, paired with my not yet fluent french, has left me in a kind of language limbo) and went on to have (forced) serial dreams of trapping a fairy in my window and nursing it back to health after its wing broke...or....maybe that was just a scene and/or the basis of the film....my memory. is. really. fuzzy.

Pedestrian Struggles

I'm probably guilty of this myself, but I hate it when people stand on opposite sides/edges of the pavement to have their conversation, then don't close the gap when they see you, (a stranger) approaching..

 

..forcing you to awkwardly pass through between them and momentarily feel like a dodgy intruder who wants in on their little chat.

look how physically close together we get...like we're all chums >_< and for that split second they're both stuck staring intently at the sides of my head. Privacy is dead.

Yes. It's the small things that annoy me -_-

Lil' Red

Made a little (red riding hood) friend for Goldie!

drawing the wolf reminded me of christmas trees... please come back soon christmas.

French 103 ft Milka Oreo & Sia

Sometimes my music playlist takes it upon itself to coincidentally narrate my life on the go...

For optimized viewing experience, play "Breathe Me" by Sia (or at least the first 50 seconds of it) as you scroll..

(For optimized life experience, come to the continent (or gatwick airport*) and get yourself some milka oreo.)













Ingesting 600g of the stuff over the course of 4 days probably wasn't the best life decision i've made, but my taste buds aren't complaining..

* if anyone knows of somewhere in the uk other than gatwick airport arrivals, where milka oreo is stocked, please let me know, i have a large family to feed
