Final Rupert pictures - for the moment!

Well after a lot of snipping and sticking I have now come to the end of this series. But only for the moment, my brain just needs a rest from Rupert and Fairy land. These are the last ones.

This last one is a homage to an art site I belong to. At the moment I can't get on ther as its showing a malware infection. And yes I have run all my scans and cleaned my caches. So any LMM members could you be a sweetie and upload for me. Thanks.

Are these Two Naughty Boys???

Rupert finds a Morse Code machine and sends a message. His friends Algie, Bill, Pong Ping and Podgy look on to see what will go wrong!



The other naughty boy is typical 1950's humour, but do you know a naughty boy like this??

Rupert and the Poetry Book

This week my life has been taken over by a ton + of chicken manure. My veg plot needs a constant supply of this stuff so i have been loading/unloading a trailer all week. How many forkfuls in a ton? A lot I can tell you. I am pooped literally.

So no energy for the planned large canvases! Instead i am ongoing with more Rupert. This time I had a school poetry book (1958) and have combined suitable images from a 1970's Rupert annual to compliment the poems. These are 6x4, postcard size mounts.




I am having great fun doing these, it takes me back to my childhood, when I used to read my books under the covers, lit by a torch. Any one else do that? The last one is one of my favourites, take some time out for yourself.

The Story Book Chums


Next re-hashed Rupert and chums. Its just laid out and not stuck down. I've included characters from 1940's to 1970's. You can make up your own narrative.... Toby Algy and Bill tell Rupert, "Look Tiger Tim has made a cake!". Aladin conjures up a dragon. You get the idea?
