Welcome to Melanie’s February Monthly News, we hope that all of our readers and followers are all keeping well! Spring is on its way! We start this blog off with some beautiful daffodils from my dads garden. Daffodils always make me smile, such a happy flower. We have been busy in the studio this month. I am working towards the completion of updating our dog portrait website and we have both been busy drawing and painting. I have also created and designed some new packaging for my pencil drawings.

Melanie’s February Monthly News – Walk with Lily
We have had a few sunny days which has enabled us to take Lily to the beach a few times. The photo below was taken at Llansteffan. The beach is lovely there and there is plenty of space to walk both on the beach and through the wooded cliffs past the castle.
It was a pretty cold day but the sky was blue which is all that matters. It creates lovely reflections in the wet sand too.
Mischievous and Cute Lily!
Lily has been quite mischievous of late! During the winter months we keep a cardboard box of paper by the fire to use for lighting. Instead of recycling cereal packets, I pop them in the box. In the evening, Lily sometimes decides she might like to take a sniff as to what I have put in there. This particular day I had put an empty flour bag there….. As you can see she had much delight in ripping it apart! She never eats the paper, just enjoys ripping it. She loves opening presents at Christmas… even if they aren’t hers!!!
We have had some chilly wet dog walks and this was after one particular soggy walk when she came in. I usually get her to lay on her bed by the radiator and wrap her in a towel if her coat is damp. She must have been tired, but there is always that naughty Tibetan Terrier eye watching our every move.
Running with the Gang!
I’m feeling a lot better from whatever it was that affected me for the last 3 or 4 months. Which is great as I am back running with the gang. We all did a Parkrun on Saturday and then went to The Moody Cow after for breakfast. It was my first Parkrun and first time at The Moody Cow. The food was amazing, the pancakes delightful and a must if anyone is visiting the area. I have yet to investigate the farm shop but will go in next time. Visit the website to see what they offer.
And finally… I hope that you have enjoyed this Melanie’s February Monthly News post. I will have lots more to add in my March news. If you missed out on our long awaited catch up news from last month, head over to Melanie’s January News and take a peak at the portraits we completed over Christmas. Have a great March everyone!!
