I’m going on vacation and take along… The last couple of weeks have flown by. Obviously because of the time consuming nurturing of Scruffy (see my previous blog), but also because our family visit and short vacation in the Netherlands. And in those weeks I didn’t do much in my art journal. It was way too hot for that, in ...

So I wanted to post a blog with new artwork at least once a week. Only to get sucked into a new adventure around a puppy! In our area (Southern Spain) there are loads of stray animals. And last week on Tuesday night I suddenly heard this heartbreaking dog crying. When I went over to take a look I saw ...

BINGO! One of my favorite hobbyshops in the Netherlands has a monthly bingo on Facebook. And I liked the idea so much that I decided to participate. It’s actually pretty simple: at the start of the month they post a ‘bingo card’ with nine different subjects. It looks like the picture on the right, but then with text in it. ...

Before I start to post new blogs more often, here’s a little update. I can hear you thinking “well that took a long time!” Well yes… ehm… sorry, I actually seldom blog anymore, just didn’t happen and the threshold to do so got higher and higher. But when I had typed a complete post for my Facebook page last week ...

Happy Easter! First off, I’d like to wish you a Happy Easter (the Dutch celebrate two days of Easter, so today is the Second Easter Day)! Did you decorate the house? All in yellow and light green, an Easter branch decorated with little eggs (or chocolate eggs, mmmm), fluffy chicklets and an Easter bunny? For a lot of people, especially ...

Busy with Global Doodle Gems Review Team Let me tell you what I’ve been up to lately, in case you’re wondering why nothing much is happening on Tabby May Art. First off I’m busy with several projects for the Global Doodle Gems Review Team. This team is an initiative from Johanna Ans and we’re working as a team for a ...

Doodling with Johanna Ans About a week and a half ago Johanna Ans came with a question for the members of her Global Doodle Gems Review Team, of which I’m a member as well. It was about a coloring and drawing book of hers for which she would like to have more exposure on the internet. Whether we would feel ...

Vacation in our homeland In the first week of March I’ve been traveling with my husband. Kind of a vacation, but not a very relaxing one. We had several reasons to pay the Netherlands a visit. Like an important birthday and family members that had moved house and we wanted to see their new homes. And of course to see ...

Coloring for children From BBNC I received, on behalf of Coloring for Adults (CfA) the children’s coloring book ‘Frightened little Pete’ to review (click here for the review). So that was Coloring for children… As usual I wrote ‘for which I thank them’, and I definitely don’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth, but there are some ...

New colored pencils When I recently received my 100 pieces Marco Renoir tin I was super happy. I had never before experienced pencils sent from China that were this well packaged. To me it felt like there were thirty layers of bubble wrap around the tin! Coloring with Marco Renoir Full of confidence I started my first coloring sheet with ...
