Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!Â
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper! Â
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

What a great idea!! Great one Andrea. The lizard is called a Anolis carolinensis carolinensis - Northern Green Anole

GREAT IDEA

From the title I was thinking an Agatha Christie mystery. The flower looks appropriately horrified by the injury.

Good heavens, the most exquisite plaster art I've ever seen! Reminds me of Elsa Lanchester in The Bride of Frankenstein.

I have had a lot of plasters in my day, even a purple one, but never one with a great painting like that on it! Excellent work!

Oh, this is such nice in the first place you did this for Catherina, Andrea. And it is such COOL, and also fitting, and sheering up her leg plaster.

This is so you, Andrea! You should go into business with the local emergency rooms! Very creative as always, Clive

A very classy looking cast and I knew that you painted that face - I recognize your style of nose!
Chipka
Oh, I love this! That cast is worth saving once it's done being a cast! Now there's a concept! A whole gallery showing of casts featuring Andreadoodles. I'd pay to see that!

Oh this is so fun! puts a fun face on a rather unpleasant situation! I love that it's all color coordinated .. the purples and the maroons .. fabulous!
