<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I made a pop-up birthday card for a friend :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">She is a super-duper woman who juggles a multitude of things and still manages to smile through it all whilst making sure everyone is ok. I was umm-ing and err-ing about what she could be juggling in the card, when a whatsapp conversation before our night out led to this: purple gin and a kebab!!</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Our 7 year old has been working on a lovely 3D forest scene with a river, which I thought would make a great setting for an animation. I added a little character and played around with it but it was tricky taking photos without a tripod, everything wobbling about and moving around, and I kept getting my hand in the shot too. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So I decided to give it a try in 2D and added some forest-y sounds for effect. It's pretty basic (understatement) but was lots of fun and now I want to play around some more!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Incidentally, when I was doing my BA Graphic Design course many years ago, I was thinking about specialising in animation but at the last minute opted for illustration instead. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love making pictures but will always remember that magic moment when you see your images move and come to life! (It was just the thought of working on hundreds of pictures for a few seconds of footage that put me off at the time!!)</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been having fun making these things for a lovely community event which is happening this weekend. The mouse and the shark will be attached to a wooden stand, and there will be a bucket of fish and plate of cheese (sewn by me, stuffed by me and the little one) to throw into their hungry mouths!</span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope the kids (big and small) enjoy feeding the hungry beasts!</span>Mique Moriuchihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01802205988308546854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8226177378735124082.post-25785252632867669772018-05-29T00:36:00.001+01:002018-05-29T00:36:35.831+01:00The Mighty Cucumber Suit<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've seen all kinds of things being whipped out of a Mum Bag, to buy mum a bit of time so that she can have a conversation with a friend, sit through an assembly or sip that coffee in relative peace. Chances are slim but you gotta keep trying!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A Mum Bag is usually filled with:</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- An array of snacks varying from good to bad, the bad snacks holding more bribery power. Don't show these too soon though, as you will end up with relentless pestering.</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- A treasury of books.</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Enough stationery to hold a </span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">kids' crafty workshop.</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- A “small” selection of their most essential and favourite toys.</span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When packing a bag, mum will try and prepare for every eventuality but sometimes even the enormous selection is simply not good enough for the little <strike>tyrant</strike> toddler. </span><br />

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I made this picture of our boys and their friends, as a leaving gift for our Headteacher who is retiring after today. </span><br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We will miss being greeted by her in the mornings as we frantically rush in (she knows all the children by name!), her knocking down conkers in the autumn with the kids, her warmth and so much more. We love our school. I've watched our eldest thrive and grow in confidence over the years, and now with our little one joining the preschool, I look forward to seeing how he grows and develops </span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">i</span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">n a nurturing and stimulating environment under the new Headteacher.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I LOVED illustrating the kids in this picture :) Although not very "accurate", I think I was able to capture their character and everybody managed to guess who was who, hooray!</span>Mique Moriuchihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01802205988308546854noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8226177378735124082.post-89965149322664661862018-03-11T02:37:00.000+00:002018-03-11T08:15:08.711+00:00Look Mummy Look!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Our 6 year old recently came up with some funny animal combos when we had a couple of days off school due to snow. I don't remember how it all started but for a few days it became an obsession - finding animals whose names merged into each other, which he then drew. It was a lot of fun and it reminded me of the Japanese word game "Shiritori" (literal translation = taking the bottom) where you say a word beginning with the last letter of the previous word.</span></div>
