Posted - 26/01/2007 : 21:59:01 Have we any budding artists in our ranks who have ever drawn/painted an image of Dusty? If so, I'm sure we would all love to see your efforts.
I did a brilliant drawing of her when I was at school. Unfortunately my Grandfather put my art folder out in the potting shed and everything went mouldy, including my Dusty!

Ha ha.... that's a piece. 
The watercolour is entitled, "Dusty 1984"? Does that mean it was painted in 1984, or a depiction of Dusty circa 1984? Either way, I'm squinting to see the resemblance.

That's exactly what I thought, Linda. I think it means that it was painted in 1984. I think it's trying to depict Dusty circa the mid-sixties, as what I assume to be the hair is sort of bob-shaped. The eyes are interesting, but the mouth is all wrong in my opinion! Tx |

Posted - 14/12/2007 : 11:59:12 Maybe Michael Gibbison is Linda's son JB in disguise?

Posted - 14/12/2007 : 09:05:37 I can confirm that Michael Gibbison isn't Brian in disguise. 
I don't think so, anyway!.. Cxx |

Posted - 22/06/2007 : 19:02:06 Thanks for those pics, Will..
Dusty was fascinated with the idea of re-touching photos and you've done just that!.. 
The first one is lovely, and the rest aint so bad either.. 
Much appreciated...

Posted - 18/06/2007 : 19:06:25 I posted these the other day on the other Dusty site and hope no-one will mind my posting them here also. They aren't my own work as such (not a drawing or painting), but I worked on photos of Dusty and these were the results ..
