Hello, grab a cuppa, a slice of cake and take a pew dears...
So I decided to get a bit of sketching done (all part of my PiBoldMo pledge). I asked Bur Wood to pose for me. Bur is Desktop's resident top male model. Between modeling contracts he doubles up as a lumber jack, which entails sharpening my pencils. The office girls, Cigar smokin Maud, Beryl and Thing wanted to model too. More the merrier I said and everyone took to their positions.
I was sketching my lovely models when in the distance we heard the 4 o'clock Tea Train pull into Art Bunker Station. Oh lovely I said, we'll stop for a short break. Well, not only was there the delivery of tea and cake but also a new arrival to Desktop...
"Miss Hubba Hubba" - Bur said with his wooden jaw dropping with a clunk. The office girls (except cigar smokin Maud) were agog. They had never seen anyone so pretty. Miss Hubba Hubba's real name is Kooki Kimono. She's a writer and wanted to apply for the job I had advertised in The Paper for, A Writer.
And that is my Fun and Nonsense for today...I'll be sharing with Lottie over at Paper Saturday, Sketch's Scribble's and Stuff and Sunday Sketches

I love all the sketches and the story - a story or two always adds so much to the artwork. I also enjoyed looking back over previous posts that I've missed because of pressure of time.
fun and cute pieces, love them!
You are filled with such fun and there are always such wonderful new characters to meet here!
Blessings

i can see why everyone at desktop was agog, hubba hubba is gorgeous! Such cute drawings and a fun story, I enjoyed my visit again! xo
Oh my your desktop has a mob of little people, you are so lucky you are diplomatic otherwise they may have rioted :) Love the idea of a mermaid in the teacup- Piparina mouse will have to watch her toes for there may have been a drop of liquid at the bottom we missed;)
Love your new member - she looks so prim and proper too :) ♥
I love my wooden figure - sometimes I find him in the strangest places, like he has been moving around all on his own! Gorgeous drawings :0)
Kooki Kimono reminds me of the clothespin dolls I used to make as a child. Lovely sketch!
Oh so pretty and sweet! And fun! :)
