Welcome to another Melanie’s March Monthly News. Thankfully things are a little happier here. Dad is home from Spain and recovering well, the car is still poorly (read last months blog post to hear about big dent in door!) but is due to go into the repair garage just after Easter and Nicholas had an April fool Birthday! So Nicholas and myself, including Lily headed for a day out in Pembrokeshire.
I took a few videos of Lily and the scenery and have amalgamated them together in a bit of a ditty. I hope you like it. It would be lovely to get the time to do a video a month to go along with our blog. Of course this is time dependant but I will try, especially if you all enjoy this one.

Studio & General News
It’s been busy in the studio, not just drawing, but also some much needed general business maintenance. During the last three years, starting with covid, things seemed to stop still. Nicholas had Covid in March 2020 before lockdown and it rocked us all quite hard. He was ill with it for a long time and had a number of relapses. During the first year or so, we only did the things we needed to as Nicholas was unable to work for a while. Like many from that first wave it has left lasting effects.
So our priorities were to make sure clients were looked after and happy, getting artwork out on time and scaling things back a little to allow Nicholas to rest and recover. Covid was a difficult time for many and things will never really be the same. While Nicholas is generally well, symptoms still linger, like a hidden illness. But life goes on and our business has to thrive. So it was time for a spring clean and refresh of the websites and some new stationary.
