Summer in the Park - My Backyard

It has been such a summery week here in Melbourne and after Marc Martin's Guest Blog, I'm dying to get to my local park this weekend! A huge THANK YOU to Marc for such a great week and for sharing his favorite parks with his brilliant bird illustrations. Remember you still have until midnight to leave a comment for Marc's super giveaway and be sure to check out Marc's exhibition at Lamington Drive from the 24th of November. -Jenny x

Well it’s not exactly a park, but it is the outdoors… my backyard is the perfect place to sit and do a bit reading, drawing or just hanging with friends! Not only am I lucky enough to have a lemon tree that fruits all year round, but the garden is also frequented by a pair of Spotted Doves.

Whilst they may not be native birds, they are courteous enough to stay away from my washing, and I like them for that.

* UPDATE: Congratulations to lucky commenter #71, Catherine! You have won all 5 of Marc Martin's illustrations from this week! Thank you to everyone who left such lovely comments and thanks again to Marc for a great week of Guest Blogging!!
