dog days

Happy end of April to you all. I must apologise for my lack of blogs recently but I do have a good excuse: just before Christmas I added one more dog to my collection in the form of a tiny, brown dachshund. Shortly after her arrival I gave up trying to work and instead spent the next two months immersed in puppyhood. I have since returned to my studio and Peanut, for that is her name, has slotted into my routine and sleeps most of the afternoon, either on the table next to my easel or at my feet.

Now that things have settled down I am thrilled to say that I will shortly have some brand new work available on my website. There will be originals, a new series of limited edition prints and perhaps an exclusive collection of cards. I do have one or two other ideas in mind but I will leave these as a surprise. As soon as everything is ready I will let you know via email (if you’ve signed up for my mailing list). As you can appreciate all this is taking time, and I hope you will bare with me for another month or so.

I’m off to Italy in May with two of my sisters, and I have a feeling it will be very inspiring. I’ll take my sketchbook and watercolours and hopefully get some sun-soaked paintings on the website.

If you are interested in what I am up to it’s worth following me on Instagram (sashamayharding) all my new work gets an airing there as well as lots of photos of my dogs!
