Focus: Favourite Blogs

Just so you know, I am actually drawing and working, which is why I am not blogging as much. I am also spending time with my family, writing, working on Artjunky.net and doing lots of reading.

One of the things I love doing though, is reading blogs. So here is a quick roundup of a small selection of my current fave blogs which include both lifestyle and design. More to come….
