A year or more ago I purchased a subscription to the 'magazine' Babybug* for my little niece. She is a little more than two, now, and talking a blue streak. I got the following from my brother:

She wandered around the living room with her new magazine saying: Babybug. Babybug! babybug? BA! BEE! BUG! bbybg Baybug! Read book! babybuggy! [etc, ad lib]

and yes, of course I nearly cried laughing. What a delight! I miss those years.

If anyone is wondering, Babybug and the other Cricket-type magazines are way more expensive than other children's magazines, and yet worth every penny. There are no - ZERO - adverts in them, just a little book of short stories, clever poems, and good illustrations. Oh, I wish they lived closer, so I could read with her!

-* By the same folks who publish 'Cricket'

British crayfish sketch | Limited edition fine art print from an original drawing. Crayfish are freshwater crustaceans belonging to the clade Astacidea, which also contains lobsters. In some locations, they are also known as baybugs, crabfish, crawfish, crawdaddies, crawdads, freshwater lobsters, mountain lobsters, mudbugs, rock lobsters, signal crawfish, or yabbies. My sketches start life as hand-drawn graphite images made on cartridge paper. I often work on these with charcoal, oil pastel or Caran d'Ache to create the look I'm after. The artwork is then scanned and finessed digitally ready for fine art printing. This process often referred to as Giclée printing uses the highest standard of printing methods to give gallery quality results that maintain all the details of the original sketch. The graphite pencils I use are Faber-Castel, the oil pastels are Sennelier and the china-graph is Caran d’Ache. The inks are pigment based archive quality (100years+). The heavyweight specialist papers I use are of the best professional quality having a wonderful surface designed specifically for fine art drawings and illustrations. Very limited editions with only ten per size printed. All artwork is signed and includes a certificate of authenticity. The A5 are 5.8" x 8.25" (14.8cm x 21cm) The A4 are 8.25" x 11.7" (21cm x 29.8cm) The A3 are 11.7" x 16.5" (29.8 cm x 42cm) The A2 are 16.5" x 23.4" (42 cm x 59.4cm) Frames not included in price. Free shipping on artwork to UK destinations.
