I've managed to maintain the sketching though :)
I also have some good news!
For a while I have written stories to go with some of my paintings and after seeing a course which explains the techniques of story writing, I applied to join it.
Yesterday I had my interview and assessment and am delighted to tell you all I passed and am now enrolled on the course!
The interviewer also told me that because I have a way with words, both written and spoken, she'd like me to consider putting my name down for a teaching position at the college.
Complete surprise and great compliment !

Oh Pat,
I did not know this story teller side of you. And what a surprise it is. Hearty CONGRATULATIONS to you on this. And good to know that you are managing to keep your sketchbook ting going.
Thank you, Prabal.
I try with some paintings to tell a story - and then I also write it down too :) Perhaps one day I will put it on here for you to read :)
Sketching is great when not enough time for a painting :) xx
All good sketches Pat. My favourites are the two top ones, excellent. All the best Pat.

Thanks, Vic. They are the ones I spent longest on, the book ones tend to be quicker sketches . xx
Dear Paaat!!
Congrats!What good news! I'm so happy for you. You'll be a wonderful teacher, too. The sketches are so lovely and heartwarming. Enjoy everything awaiting you.
Best wishes,Sadami
Congratulations Pat - that really is great news 1. to enrol on a course you wanted to do and 2. to be asked to teach as well. Goodness, now your time really will be taken up, but hope we get to see lots of sketches and paintings still.
Great sketches Pat! And I am not surprised they asked you to teach! Your blog stories behind your paintings are always great (I remember the cowgirl series very well) and you are a genius in titles! Congratulations!
Congratulations Pat...of course they asked you to consider teaching. You are so talented, generous and have so much to share. Hugs. xx
lovely sketches and words pat ...enjoy your course !
Love to see your sketches Pat. But what great news about your writing and maybe teaching! That's just super! Hugs xx
Hai Pat. Congratulations with this good news! I'm very happy for you! It's like getting an award for your work and who you are.
I like your sketches very much. They inspire me. I'm walking about a half year now with a sketchbook in my bag and didn't do a thing with it. Maybe....
wonderful news Pat, love your sketches.
Congratulations Pat! Your sketches not only are very nice, but they also tell us nice stories. Hug!
Pat, how fantastic!!! I love these sketches and it's so nice to hear such positive news!!!

Oh congratulations Pat! You certainly do have a way with words, this is just perfect for you. :)) And I love the sketches, especially your furry boots.
Wow, that's great news Pat, I don't know where you find the time and energy for all your creativity :-) You must be chuffed!
