This whole-block hoarding is the gift that keeps on giving. Having stumbled upon this spot completely by accident, I have been revelling in its treasures. This piece by Roo is in her home town. Most of her work that I have featured in Natural Adventures is from Bristol, so it is always great to see some of her work in her own back-yard.
This beautifully painted cat, who is settled down for an evening of screen entertainment, is full of character and charm. Although Roo’s character work appears to be quite simple, with solid fills, strong outlines etc, don’t be fooled. These are carefully crafted and brilliantly designed pieces with a lot of attention to detail, especially with the highlights and shadows, for example the yellow strip on the left-hand edges, suggesting a reflection from a light source. This piece gave me a warm feeling of familiarity inside. Now all I had to do was find a piece by SkyHigh.

A masterful book, and I am very excited about seeing the film tonight. As a quiet and sensitive boy, I found myself and gained confidence through observing and becoming knowledgable about nature – a ‘nature boy’. I identified with some aspects of Kya and the way she absorbs herself in her environment, her habitat, while shutting out the rest of the world. The similarities end there.
Crawdad = Crayfish (for the Brits).

This film still makes it into my top ten, along with A Room with a View, also coincidentally starring DD-L. Don’t ask me what my other top ten films are… I haven’t decided yet.
