New Week Ahead

By on 5-11-2008 in Competitions / Contests

Hello again everyone,

Before I start, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY to all of you in the US, and anywhere else of course where its currently mothers day, or erm significant parental figure day, this is why I am not allowed to design holidays.. I saw the most bizarre mothers day card, it read “You’re Just like a mother to me”, is that not just insulting to anyone you give it to? I gave it to my step father. We haven’t spoken since…. no I’m of course kidding, though it did baffle him somewhat..

FRIDAY NIGHT GIVEAWAY

We have our first entrant to make it through to the draw… Sez managed post 50 in the Friday Night Giveaway blog, so congratulations to them, and lets get more people to join Sez.

Get your comments in to each blog, using any of the themes set, we’re not that fussy really and this painting has got to get a good home… as we say, the only thing we dont want to see is people making 50 posts in a row… lol. Thanks to everyone for taking part so far. And now its time to reveal a new THEME for comments.

Music to Listen to when looking at Gorjuss pictures…

That should keep you all going and should reveal the pictures that make people happy and those that bring you to a joyfull sadness.. Good Luck…

Monday Blues

Its the busiest day of our week again, and I’m dreading it, Suzanne and I will barely have time for lunch tommorrow. We shall endeavour to get all the orders out tommorrow. Im still awaiting my delivery of INK… soon I may need to collect berries to make my own inks.. If you receive a gorjuss print in crayon, you know I ran out of ink… Actually Im low on papers too.. So I guess I’m taking Suzanne shopping tommorow, her face will light up until I explain what for.. oh deary me…

WEEK AHEAD

There is a lot planned for this week ahead, a lot of things will come to fruition and you can hear about them here first.. We hope to have some great news for you midweek, and then of course on Friday the big prize draw……..and prize giving session. You cant afford to be late for that. Detentions will be dished out for tardiness (EXCLUDING MINE) and innapropriate behaviour or flirting with the teacher or heaven forbid, trying to bribe him.

 

Good night and I hope you all have had a lovely weekend…

    lorna xxxx

  2. Beautiful new painting!!!

    Evanescence is perfect for looking at Gorjuss art, I agree!

    I also think of the song “Pictures of You” by the Cure.

    Have a good evening, everyone!

    XO Beth

  3. hmmmmm. be back later …. I may be a tad older than most of you ๐Ÿ™ music-wise ๐Ÿ™

  4. That new painting is amazing, so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us. ๐Ÿ™‚

    As for music I don’t even get the chance to listen to it anymore so I’d have to think back to before kids. (roflol, anything Disney is not quite what I am looking for). lol.

  5. I love the new Little Tree in the Stars! Awesome to see it being sketched too. Hope your Monday goes much better than you think it will!

  6. Hi!

  7. This is going to sound odd but l am a classic fan…II Divo would be music l would play while looking at Gorjuss Girls.

    They are unique like Suzanne’s Girls. Both very special, caring calming and relaxing.

    Hugs lee

  8. Little Tree in the Stars is awesome a unique drawing/image…..Amazing Suzanne.

    Hugs lee

  9. Hmmm, I’m also thinking Mazzy Star would be nice to listen to while looking at Gorjuss girls. : )

    XO Beth

  10. Lovely new girl! I am thinking about the music question. . .I usually sit in silence at the monitor. I will have to get back to you on that one.

  11. I’m listening to I Wish it Would Rain by the Temptations. Which reminds of me of I’m Not Cryin’ in the first episode of Flight of the Conchords. LOVE that show.

    LOVE your artwork, too, Suzanne.

  12. Please provide more information on detention. . . and which do you prefer. . .flirting or bribery???

  13. I think I can say on behalf of all men, both are quite effective, but neither beats a cold pint of beer……. aaaaaaah

  14. Robyn, I would not worry about the age of your music……… i have Jurrassic tastes in music… I remember before the rolling stones, a band called…..”big rock”, that was before “the wheel”.

    So dont be affraid to reveal your secrets…

  15. OK, how about the original “Tainted Love” by Soft Cell? Good theme music for perusing the lovelies. . .the darker ones. And then some Maroon 5 “Makes Me Wonder”. I think those might work for viewing fine art, a little 80’s nostalgia and a little contemporary. And a pint for Grant, please!

  16. ::uploads pint for Grant::

    More musical ponderings…how about The Smiths?

    XO Beth ::child of the 80s::

  17. still haven’t come up with fav music. I am listening to Rod Stewart’s Great American Song Book 3 right now …they relax me ..lol I love C&W, 70’s Rock ….. I guess there is no one type, just certain songs that fit my moods …lol ….don’t ask ๐Ÿ™‚

  18. Oh, good! More 80’s fans–how about some Duran Duran “Rio”! Excellent. . .maybe a little Corey Hart “Sunglasses at Night”. And another round for Grant–oops, just saw the Monday post. Sorry, cancel that next pint! Uploaded American beer must be too strong. Maybe a nice glass of water, then.

  19. I like a little Joss Stone when I’m making tags with Suzanne’s art. It’s very real music, like Suzanne’s paintings.

  20. The Cranberries ๐Ÿ™‚

  21. Oh I know who I could listen to!!!! How about some “Bay City Rollers”!!! I use to love them when I was about 13…lol.

  22. a lot of blue octobers songs go well with mrs gorjussyfulls work, hate me, into the ocean i love em ๐Ÿ™‚

  23. been out sunbathing today wow at the weather guys…hows it in glasgow todaY?
