A bit annoyed that my last journal entry was 2010. Oh well. I've been in Cairo for just over a year now, and have started to try and incorporate some Islamic art and of course the glorious qualities of the Belly Dancer into my work. There's also a new game being started by Profound Decisions which I am submitting work for.

Expect more Weasel arts. Not just now though. There's a slight issue of OfSTED to get through
