Day Two Hundred and Fifty - Yellow Labrador Puppy

Dear all,

I LOVE DOGS. And especially LABRADORS (Newsflash: Jessie and Saffy Mourant are currently enjoying the balmy tempertures being experienced in Truro, Cornwall)

Anyway, lovely Darla bought in her NEW PUPPY Bella to art class today and consequently I did little more than chase her around the studio, play 'who's got the biscuit' and grab her intermitently for a dog-squish. She is amazing!

She is already very adventurous and keen to get involved with Tuesday night Art Class as seen here below heading straight for the bin liner on a hunt for hidden doggy-treasures [food].

Here is Bella having a moment of madness and thinking she is a beaver. I managed to retrieve her before she used her puppy-needle-teeth to implement an interesting new landscape onto Michelle's easel.

She is adorable and like everyone who meets her, I fell in love pretty much on impact. I just wish Jessie was here to meet her!

And in other news:
