tags: Cowrunning. Kowrenne | Hoensbroek | Koerennen | Pipo de clown | Pipo de kow en MamakoeCowrunning. Next weekend it’s Carnaval: the south of the Netherlands is having streetparades, dressing up, music, a lot of beer and a lot of fun.
In my home town, Hoensbroek, we organize “cowrunning”. 8 paper-and-wood cows with each 2 runners under it compete on our local market place for the big prize: a very ugly cup.
And we are all dressed up of course. This year the theme of my group is “pipo the clown” (and yes, being the coach, that’s me on the wagon). -

The Vermilinguan Necessity #2
Pen and ink in small Moleskine notebook (90 x 140mm).
But more kept appearing. Now and again, a line of them ran up the kitchen wall.
At least five or six were always peeping over the edge of the bathtub.
—
Clusters of them formed over spillages and crumbs on the dining table.
They even invaded unopened packages and lidded jars. Kezia’s tempers grew dreadful. She made the most unholy fuss.
Please refer to the first part for a little background (and/or to catch up).

Spring Promise - Acrylic in a Watercolour Moleskine
I found these wee spring plants bravely poking through a small pocket of the last of the snow. Its amazing how these delicate things have survived temperatures of -18C and drifts of up to 2 feet during the last couple of months. Lets hope that the next blizzard, forecast for the end of this coming week, doesn’t finish them off. Somehow I think they will survive. They deserve to do so.
Well I’ve made it. This is in the last page of an A4 Moleskine given as a Christmas present. I tried to paint one “Brrr” (cold and wintry) scene each day until the book was complete. As I’ve already pointed out, its been really hard work but I think I have learned something about perseverance. Now I shall get back to a more leisurely rate of sending in stuff.
I realised, a few days ago, that I would need to replace the book so looked for suppliers of the A4 size. I had previously paid around £16.00 for one - this included post and packaging. One supplier now offers this size at “The retail price of £19.95″. I did, much to my surprise, come across
http://www.bookdepository.co.uk
This place will deliver free worldwide. I paid £19.06 for two of the things which is around half price. I’ve described this in the forum “Artmater”

Work in progress. Artists will include: Ooli, Russia; Marina, Israel; Wil, UK; Lynne, UK; Emma, Australia. This group is doing books on music themes. This book is inspired by Carl Stallings Looney Tune music. No Looney Tune characters here, though. Three of these people have yet to make an entry into this book, so I am expecting it to be completely filled with brilliant artwork.
