Close up of my beloved nephew

When you stare in his eyes everything else disappears, he is totally mesmerizing. But he lives in London, I wonder how I can kidnap him to New York, I could hide him in my case but if my luggage went missing again for 5 days, I guess I would have a lot of explaining to do to my wee sis. Maybe she will rent him to me, so far I have still to prove my worth by doing something useful other than taking photos of him and blogging about him!



Wish me Mazeltov on the bris of my nephew

Kenzie Grey Noah Wolfson is so adorable, lucky Georgia, my wee sis, had the family baby to share between all three sisters.

We really bonded and I am already madly in love. It is great being an auntie, i haven't changed one nappie and do only the fun parts! Bonding, gurgling, staring into his eyes, holding him when I am allowed.

Once Mark's movie comes out and he is famous, he is driving this car around town.

$2000 a month will lease you this car, but where would you park it, it would probably be on the street for all of 5 minutes before it was gone. New Yorkers have to be practical.



The next gallery wasn't a gallery at all but a showroom for an electric car





In the next painting some couples were in cloud boats in evening attire, whilst the other lonely girls seemed to float eithero on their own cloud boats, suspended in space

Waving a red gloved hand and evening bag, saying "Hey what about me, I fancy being on the boat with him rather than stuck in the sky on my own."

Another blond girl at the bottom of the picture, looked like she wasn't leaving anything to chance and was heading over to the boat with the couple with every intention of leaping on board.

The lady on the boat has her arms spread out as if to say, "Don't even think about it, Lady, this chappie is all mine and I ain't sharing him so buzz off back to cyberspace or wherever it is you actually are. Now Shuu, shuu! Off with you!"



A couple having sex in public under a rotunda

was the optimistic piece of the day. This rotunda seems very hectic and a good place to hang out as anything can happen once you finally make it inside. Walk in, get naked, have sex, walk out. Is this how relationships are to flow? Keep it moving,no time to get attached.



Another sunny day in Nigeria

Sad news of a recent religious massacre over there, makes this photo quite chilling.



The next gallery was showing photos from a very trendy Nigerian artist

These three kids look ready to go to battle themselves if need be.



I was relieved to see in the next picture, the lady was dressed and had decided not to jump.

However, she looks totally fed up, with her arms crossed and her eyes blankly staring out.
What is on her mind? The thought of picking up and starting again or what's next in store for her. Either way she is forever immortalized as a fed up heroine, someone we can relate to ourselves when the chips are down.



This next gallery piece may look like a naked woman relaxing on her window sill

but if you take a second closer look,her expression looks positively glum.

"Mam, don't jump, he was probably a total jerk anyway," I said to the lady in the painting,"breathe some cool night air in, close your eyes and things will look better tomorrow morning. He wasn't a JDate was he?"



This lady looks like a terrorist bride but apparantly she is simply an Iranian lady

Who lives both in Iran and the States and she never feels quite at home in either place, so the gallery owner explained, when I complained that how come even terrorists are getting married but the Scottish Princess can't make it past one date,she apologized on behalf of the artist who had not intended to rub it in at all.



Given the recessionary troubled times

It was no surprise to see the photographs showed couples fighting and tearing their hair out. My thought was well at least they were a couple and had someone to fight with. I like to look on the bright side.



Despite Snowmaggedon we braved 25th Street

This show was our first stop, floating paint squiggles on glass and a painted cube was a great warm up.





March has been a hot month for art in New York

Mark Sklewer and I hit the galleries in Chelsea to see if anything took our fancy.



This was the one shot he took of me

One lousy shot at least it was a decent one. Check out my foxy make up that Roland did for me. Most people at the party said I was their favorite costume and the ones who said nothing are the dopey ones who had not seen the movie yet so it went over their heads.



Three lollipop munchkins won an Oscar too

The photographer spent hours posing those three and took hundreds of shots of them and only two photos of me, I was a bit miffed between you and me.



Sherlock Holmes and a red man monster were also waving the flag





Last week the Scottish Princess attended the Alty Oscars party

We all got a chance to dress up as our favorite movie character.

I went as Fantastic Mr Fox, my favorite film of the year. I had it down to every last detail, including his balaclava, his stolen Farmer Boggis chicken and stolen Farmer Bean's cider as my props.

I entered every competition and finally won my first alt Oscar for runner up as best dressed man!

My friend Roland bought his own handmade Barbie alternative Oscar, this meant he won no matter what anyone said, smart.



Or everyone's favorite Sarah Palin variety

"When abortion is not an option."

This one will probably appeal most to the busy New York professional women like me who would rather do a yoga class than have an abortion.





Or why not try the John McCain condo

Old But Not Expired.

Gosh I hope people don't describe me like that. His two thumbs up giving me the green light to go wild. ( Here's hoping!)

"You can choose between Obama, the Ultimate Stimulus Package..."

He picked up the condom to show me Obama's handsome smiling face on the cover.

"These are souvenir condoms , they are not meant to be used.

They are collectable Obama memorabilia and could be very valuable in a few years time. They also look great on the mantlepiece." He countered.

Times Square Obama Condoms are all the rage

On my way to a View from a Bridge on Wednesday, this man stopped me and begged me to buy a few of his condoms at $5 each.

"But I have loads of condoms at home, many of them dating back to many years ago and all of them unused. Why do I need to depress myself with yet more condoms taking up valuable living space and reminding me of my singledom status?"
