Scary Biscuits!

This week I shall mostly be planning an article to go in Milkcow magazine, which is a vintage lifestyle mag. I have got to write about myself, and in a way, I am assuming, that is not as much of a brain vomit as I chuck out on here! http://www.milkcow.co.uk/
Weirdly I am struggling, its difficult to write about yourself without sounding like you are a total douche bag or self-absorbed! Also, it's not like writing a facebook status, where people know you well enough to fill in the blanks! Sooooo anyhoo Milkcow... I started reading this about a year ago and it was part and parcel of a little mini epithany I had regarding my work/life balance. I decided I wanted to get my baby skullies featured in there, but figured I might not be good enough... well apparently I am, I emailed the editor last week and he was in touch within 24hours... stoked??? I was ridonkulously excited.
In bewteen all this excitement, I have been working on some new bits and bobs and one doesn't even feature a skull. Shock! Horror! However it does feauture my two other loves a Ukulele and stoopid looking dog! It is a commission for a friend's wedding present. It is nowhere near finished but I am enjoying the challenge. I also sent out this morbid/ funsies little card for their nuptuals, that were held in Thailand, I couldn't go because I had to do that teaching thing I get paid for (Booooooooooo!).
Can't wait to see their reaction to their Uke Playing Dog immortalised in acrylics and surrounded by hibiscus flowers, poppies and orchids.
