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!
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!
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.

A wonderful piece full of charm and humor. She looks like a stout lass. If you were a really nice person you would have made a ladder for him to climb.

I saw all the versions. I know you feel I gush a lot, but I'm gonna put my 60 years of art experience behind this: This is a masterful piece of sculpture. And as a lamp too. The figures at the bottom are masterfully done, with great humor and silliness, but also real sculptural presence. I love R's hair falling down into their hands. And her big bulbous face. And the whole concept, and the perfect shade for the lamp. This is masterful. I can't lessen the word: Your sculptures are humorous and bold and really human;, and wonderfully conceived as sculpture---as 3 dimensional, visceral stuff. I adore this...200000000 fav's and likes and stars.
