It is unlikely that I will be posting further on this site, I'm keeping it available as more of an archive of older work.

Alternate blogging methods.
Testing a new method of updating the contents of this Blog. Just to keep any visitors entertained here are some recent sketches from the last few weeks...
A sketch based on the concept of styles in the 1960's
Character doodles,
and more character doodling,
this one was done at the Garrick last thursday while chatting with some very interesting people.
Sometimes its better not to ask. In this case its coloured pencils on recycled paper
Followed by the natural hunter of the previous image, this one is coloured pencil on coloured card.
As is this. However this one is based on a gent who was on my train to work, admittedly the subject was'nt quite as grumpy looking.
This one is a planning sketch for the Illustration Friday theme, 'Refreshed'
This is as far as I have finished the image as the new one has been released, 'Contained' and I have more interesting plans for that.
Last but not least a piece of fanart for the character Rincewind created by the wonderful Sir Terry Pratchett, the character resides in the Discworld.
Hopefully this test will be successful and more posts will follow.
Over and Out,
Ann aka Dragon.

Flaws and plenty of them...
....So the great Plan. Note the capital in Plan. was to use my new laptop (with windows 7) for all the web browsing and entertainment side of things, including the remaining portable side of things especially. This would complement the original laptop being reinstalled as a graphics only machine, and being static (remaining connected to the printers etc) since Vista disliked being disconnected and then reconnected later (really not sure why).
All was going well, the new laptop did precicely what was required and all files and data were backed up safely on an external drive. So I reinstalled Vista, this did not go as planned. It would under no circumstances format the drives so I ended up with 2 copies of windows running, on on each of the partitions. Wonderful.... on researching the issue I discovered that this was not unusual for Vista and that many others have had to deal with this aswell.
I even nipped into the local 'Computer tech' station in PCworld with the laptop to be told there was nothing to be done except reinstall again... using the Recovery discs made after purchace. These went missing about a month after being made.
Therefore, I have spent the day ransacking the house to find them, on locating them I made the discovery that Vista will not let me run them. Yay Vista, being its normal helpful self.
After a further hour researching on the internet, Vista finally relented and I am now watching it install yet again. perhaps this time it shall do as it is instructed.
I will update this later.
