This website was invented many years ago, when the author kept coming across interesting things in pockets whilst doing laundry. Like small, terrified reptiles. Blogging about raising children in the rainforest, moving them to the UK and watching them leave home one by one to have their own adventures has gradually been replaced by a return to grownup life for their mother, Nan Sheppard, who is an anthropologist, writer and public international law consultant.
Very nice to meet you Nan and thank you for your very kind words. My art is certainly nothing professional. This is a hobby and so I don't charge a whole bunch. I get more work than I really have time for. Thanks for passing me along to your friend. Caricatures are not all that hard, and one get's better at it with practice. I would love to see some of your work. I really enjoy looking at the work of other artist, and what you described sounded... well... difficult to me. but, alas, you other blog was empty.

Oh Nan... no words to make it better except that you have great girlfriends who will rally around you and buoy your spirits.
You can do this...it's the start of a whole new adventure.
I know... I will be counting on my friends here, and luckily Sean has a few pilot buddies in Mauritania to look out for him. Waaah!
I'm right here.
Thinking of you.

2 weeks was just awful and lonely for me. You have my deepest sympathies for the next month.
P.S. This is exactly why I don't understand why Mauritania isn't an option!!
Just surfing through. Wow! Your life looks like quite an adventure.
One day at a time, Nan. One day at a time.

Oh Nan,
I agree with Tash, think of it as a new adventure. But I feel to "sniff" for you, I know it must be hard. :(
