Oooh, I just love these studio pics - I love making them bigger and scrutinising all the stuff; your little pots of paint, glimpses of insides of sketchbooks, malteasers....cor, I could just eat a bag right now! Good job the shops are miles away!!
Starlight is looking fabulous!
(Think I'll have to go and get a bag of chockies though!)
