Frank and Ernest


A mixed media page today, using stamps, stencils, modeling paste , paints and finally a few digital additions.
I have called my Quirky Bird, ' Frank'.
He lives in one of London's parks and this view from his tree home,  looks an enticing, fun, destination.
He is asking his friends if they fancy a night out,
 especially Ernest the parrot who is a very good talker in mixed company.





This is the unaltered page, with the quote  uncovered--
Life was meant for a great adventure.
I hope Frank had a good night out.








I will be joining the fun at
where the current theme is Through my Window

the theme is Landscape.
Rosie, I hope you don't mind me using the same  bird , it just seemed to go so well on my page.
Your page was inspiring.

Thank you for all the comments you leave for me, I appreciate them all.

  2. Frank certainly looks very dapper - I should think he and Ernest would have a splendid time out on the town together. Lovely cityscape in the background.

  16. I so love that you have given a name to the bird, in fact brought him to life, oh I just love that so much! So fabulously creative the way you created a scene for him as he rounds up his friends for a night on the town!
