Yup. Sometime’s it’s a romantic adventure, this creative life, but alot of the time it can just feel like sheer hard work. But! Knowing about this ‘gap’ now, relieves alot of the worry – this is normal!!! I will get better. I will start to close the gap, and you will too
And on a slightly different note, just wanted to leave you with this little DIY project for Christmas. Don’t think it needs any instructions. I’d use a zip lock bag. Wish I could credit the creative ones who made these images – if it’s you, let me know. Anyway, it wasn’t me !
The countdown is on! Merry Christmas everyone!







I absolutely love your work, Donna! From what I can see the GAP has well and truly closed for you! Don’t change your work! I would LOVE one (or more) of your paintings for Xmas
BUT I am on walking sticks or stuck in bed waiting for hip replacement in Feb! Then …I am hoping to close that gap 
Thankyou for your inspiring words, Donna…your blog js one of my absolute favourites! It is an icon on my iPhone so its easy to access…KEEP UP YOUR WONDERFUL WORK!
Lots of love,
Annie xo…
