Pigeons

"I've Found a Racing Pigeon...What should I do?"

I found this fantastic site about pigeons. What should I do? Get a life probably. . .Who picks up stray pigeons? Stray pigeons are everywhere, in fact every pigeon could be considered a stray. 

Well this weekend I went shopping in Basingstoke and watched a few highstreet store fashion shows, which were ok, but not thrilling. I left half way through to go thrifting in the old part of the village and stumbled upon a little string of pearls(I'm sure they're fake because they're not knotted between each pearl, but they're a nice heavy vintage fake). I'm becoming obsessed with vintage lately. Ossie Clark is my current favorite.

I'm working on dyeing fabrics with different fruit juices/substances and drawing prints as well as creating some skirts/dresses/costumes so has been keeping me busy, I'll post some pictures when I'm done. I also had to write a 7 page paper on 4 pieces of artwork from the non-western world yesterday, which was interesting but it took a while.

Sounds like you had a good time. I think older stuff can be fun sometimes, it brings back good memories. The paper doesn't sound like much fun though....especially 7 pages.
