Time to get my hands mucky

My laptop has been shelved for a few days while I try my hand at a little screenprinting.
So far so good, although it has taken over my bedroom!

And finally...

I’ve made it! All the way from A to Z with minimal cheating! I'm sorry for all arachnophobic people who see this, but Z is a zebra spider. These little chaps are really tiny and - once again, sorry arachnophobic people - they are also jumping spiders and are very common. They also don’t build webs, this guy is just gate crashing some poor other spiders’ web.

I failed to find anything that begins with U so I had to get a little creative. In the end I found a solution, to use a little bit of Latin! (If you think this is cheating slightly I apologise in advance for what I’m going to do for X)

Shiny new website!

Its may have taken three years, many drawings and a few arguments with dreamweaver - but I've finally got round to giving my website a face lift! It can be perused at www.rachaelsnape.com

Stoats and Snowdrops

Weeks ago my sister requested that one of these images included snowdrops. She even suggested ignoring the s and just calling them nowdrops so I'd get round to it quicker. But I've made her wait till I got round to doing S, because I’m a good girl and I'm doing this alphabet properly. So here's your snowdrops Em (with a couple of stoats)
