Deep in the magic woods

Hi Everybody!

Hope you are enjoying your Easter weekend!
After the lovely, sunny day yesterday we had a wild,  wet and  windy day, but the sun did show itself for a few minutes and I managed a short walk through the fields.

For Art Journal Journey, if you go down to the woods, I have another hybrid page showing the woods from their magical side again.....




For 99 faces  (number 93) I have another of my doodle faces, this time a Buddha variation:






The catkins were blowing merrily in the wind today:



The castle ruins are once again open, so yesterday I enjoyed walking through them again:







The blackbird is one of the residents there:




Have a great day you all, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  2. You mean there is a possibility there is no magic in the woods? Impossible. I'm sure you just snapped a photo. Love it. Your face is beautiful, and of course always enjoy the old castle grounds. hugs, Donna

  7. Liebe Valerie,
    dein tiefer Märchenzauberwald ist dir absolut genial gelungen. Dein Buddha ist sensationell, ich liebe deine Doodle allesamt sehr. Dass ihr Sonne hattet, ist toll, bei uns hat es geregnet und weiter oben geschneit... ungemütlich war das Wetter, umso mehr freue ich mich, dass du einen solch schönen und inspirierenden Spaziergang machen konntest.
    Einen ebenso sonnigen und schönen Ostermontag wünsche ich dir.
    Herzliche Grüsse, Sichtwiese

  11. Hi Valerie, it must be spring -- one beautiful day followed by wind and rain. Your "in the woods" piece today with the magical fairies is delightful. The owl keeps appearing and doesn't want to miss out on anything. I always enjoy photos of the castle ruins and was happy you were able to enjoy the beautiful day. Have a great week.
    Hugs.

  15. Your Buddha is stunning, Valerie. Of course, your doodle pages always make me smile. So did the AJJ entry. I can't believe you were able to keep up, because I'm having trouble just doing minimal art now that spring has arrived and there are so many things that need my attention around the house and yard.

    Your walk through the old castle was wonderful. Of course, that lovely rusty sculpture is always a big favorite when you photograph it. So glad you got out and about. Hope the swelling has gone down in the knee by now.
