A sorta fairytale: November 2006
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 30, 2006. Christmas Journal: take 2. Manifesto: Noun. A declaration of one's intentions. I may post some or all of my entries in this blog. Other artists are doing this with me, and you can see their work. Or you may join us. Above all: enjoy the season. I will. So there it is, my declaration that I will be attempting to journal my Christmas for the second year running. Last year, no entries got done so let's hope this year is better :o).

A sorta fairytale: September 2006
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 27, 2006. My work was broken into last night and a whole load of our servers were stolen (as well as two laptops). Apparently, the culprits had got in through the roof and they seem to have known exactly where they were going. Very suspicious stuff. It was uber exciting though. We had a Scene of Crime officer in and he was dusting for prints and all sorts of other stuff. I was upset they didn't bring any of the yellow "crime scene" tape :o(. Posted by sharonfruit at 6:54 pm. I got lo...

A sorta fairytale: August 2006
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 11, 2006. I thought we'd moved to somewhere civilised! Turns out we can't get telewest or NTL at the flat in London. Pah! Here was me thinking that Scotland was backward - lol! Ach well, just have to do more reading. It's not like I watched much TV anyway! We move into the flat tomorrow - very excited. It will be soooooooo good to have our own space again :o). I'm very busy at work now. I've gone from organising 2 meetings to having 6! Posted by sharonfruit at 9:47 pm. It's gorgeous weathe...

A sorta fairytale: The Real Van Gogh at the RA
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2010/03/real-van-gogh-at-ra.html
Monday, March 29, 2010. The Real Van Gogh at the RA. On Saturday we finally got around to visiting The Real Van Gogh: the artist and his letters exhibition at the Royal Academy. As the title suggests, the exhibition focused on Van Gogh’s many letters displayed alongside artworks tracing his progression as an artist. Posted by sharonfruit at 9:37 pm. So glad you enjoyed the exhibition. Oranges is one of my favourites by him aswell. Subscribe to Post Comments [ Atom. A Scot in the big smoke, United Kingdom.

A sorta fairytale: April 2006
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 26, 2006. I've got another interview in London on 5th May - eek! It's for another publishing job and this time, it really does involve editing and not being a glorified office monkey! I suppose I shouldn't worry about it at the moment. We'll see what happens first! Posted by sharonfruit at 2:56 pm. Tuesday, April 25, 2006. Art journalling and other goodies. My first thoughts regarding habits were all those good and bad little habits we all have. I decided to illustrate some of my own...

A sorta fairytale: May 2006
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Off to London (yet again). Well, in answer to my last question, the hassle is indeed worth the crap salary offered! I've decided to go for the interview mainly due to good advice from parents, Graeme and Kat. I was just a bit annoyed at the tone of their email but now I am trying to see it as a gift. I didn't think I would ever hear back from this job and I did. That's got to be good. He finally arrived in London at 4pm after leaving the flat at 7.30am! Tuesday, May 30, 2006.

A sorta fairytale: January 2007
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 25, 2007. These are a few of my favourite things at the moment! On Tuesday, Graeme and I went to a lecture at the Dana Centre called "The Power of Hypnosis" where I had the chance to see some of the ideas in the book in action. It was really interesting to hear of current research into hypnosis as well. Interestingly, hypnosis is now finally being recognised as a distinct change in consciousness, which was something often disputed by scientists in past years. Yes, Snow in London! Unfort...

A sorta fairytale: Counting down to Christmas
http://sharonfruit23.blogspot.com/2009/12/counting-down-to-christmas.html
Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Counting down to Christmas. I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself this evening as, for once, we seem to be pretty organised for Christmas. I even managed to make some of my cards this year (some sneak peeks in the photo). I think the reindeer stamp on the right card has to be one of my favourites! They are all written and ready to go in the post tomorrow. Let's hope that's enough time to get them where they are going! Posted by sharonfruit at 11:04 pm. View my complete profile.

Alis Clair: January 2009
http://alis-clair.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2009. Just in time for Valentines Day. The swap at Textile Challenges. This month is for a padded heart to be made in time for Valentines Day. Well, unusually for me, I am on time and here is my heart. The heart panel is made from layers of singed organzas and lots of free machine embroidery. I don't think they show but there are little hearts embroidered with the gold thread. The heart itself is made of patterned velvet and the whole thing is lightly stuffed. It measures 6ins long.
