It has been very hot so I have been trying to find stuff to sketch while I was inside, this is supposed to be white agapanthus but I managed to get the green a bit green! I had a small bunch of them inside with a left over angel from Christmas. Oh and the odd thing in front is a leaf shaped pottery plate.I am doing this late as we went to Adelaide today, the 40 degrees didnt quite make it, I think it was 38 but still awfull hot so we cut short doing anything but the essentials, seeing my mother and having our hair cut.
Done with pen and derwent watercolour pencils.

Penny, this is so lovely and the bright little angel makes it perfect!
Hi
I have a site dedicated to the next movie of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter): DECEMBER BOYS. I create a petition to ask WARNER BROS Independant (the distributor of the film) to release it worldwide. DECEMBER BOYS is a wonderful and charming story reminiscent of the famous movie Stand By Me. It's a coming-of-age film about family, first love and the search for self. In the late 1960s, four orphans, called the DECEMBER BOYS (Daniel Radcliffe, Christian Byers, James Fraser and Lee Cormie) leave their orphanage for a holiday by the sea in the McAnsh's house (Jack Thompson and Kris McQuade) an eccentric couple on KANGAROO ISLAND. The boys are befriended by a young couple (Victoria Hill and Sullivan Stappleton) who want to adopt a child ... one of them? Consequently, the boys compete to be the most adoptable, severely testing their friendship. Tension and rivalry rise among them, pushing them apart while they compete against each other. Along the way, the oldest boy (Daniel Radcliffe) will also experiences his first romance with Lucy (Teresa Palmer) who will 'teach' him a lot of things! It's a beautiful film about family , first love and the search for self. This film has been filmed in South Australia. The crew and the actors of this film spent almost a month in Kangaroo Island and captured the incredible beauty of the locations on film. This film will be a great promotion for your wonderful landscapes all around the world if you help us (all December Boys fans) to recolt a lot of signatures to save December Boys. In fact, we know directly from Rod Hardy himself (the director of DECEMBER BOYS) that the film has only been sold to the USA and Australia at this stage and that a final decision will be made late in January when the film will have or not its worldwide release. So we have until this date to collect as many signatures as possible to convince and to prove to the WARNER BROS leaders that this film is expected and that it has the potential to be a big success. So this petition has the only objective to convince Warner Bros not to hesitate and that this film deserves a chance to be a great success, we just want them to offer its to DECEMBER BOYS.
We have only until the end of January when the final decision will be made. If Warner Bros leaders realise that numerous persons are waiting for this film, it will maybe convince them to release and promote DECEMBER BOYS everywhere. Please help us, the contribution of Aussie people would do a great difference ! Send this petition to all your friends !

Thank you and Happy New Year
