Another lullaby from Phoebe's babyhood

This song was another favourite when I was little. It's used effectively in the opening of"Jackie Brown", which is a rather marvellous work by Mr. Quentin Tarantino. Enjoy!

When Phoebe was wee

This was one of my favourite songs when I was a bubba. I thought you might like to share in it. There's more to come!

Smoking man

Allow me to tell you a magical story. I was walking by a shop that was covered with mirrors, so that the caught and bounced in spectrums of colour in a way that looked like it belonged on the front of a science textbook. I decided to take some photographs, but when I looked at them later, I realised just how dull the beautiful effect looked in my camera. The only interesting photograph which I had taken was of a man in the blue and silver uniform of the underground train. He was smoking quickly, with his  hand on his hip. His face had been so angry before he smoked his cigarette, but it began to calm down. From this photograph I did a drawing, quickly like the man. You, too, can share the magic of this smoking man.

Documentaries

Feeling gloomy? These documentaries make pretty good viewing, hopefully you'll enjoy!

One hundred

I made a little movie. It's my first foray into this sort of thing. I hope you like it.

The Twelfth Day of Christmas

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me

Twelve drummers drumming,

Eleven pipers piping,

Ten lords a-leaping,

Nine ladies dancing,

Eight maids a-milking,

Seven swans a-swimming,

Six geese a-laying, 

Five gold rings,

Four calling birds, 

Three French hens, 

Two turtle doves, 

And a partridge in a pear tree.
