Lazy, hazy days of summer

Hi Everybody!

Time is flying by, and the week is coming to an end,

which means it's time for Paint Party Friday, hosted by Eva and Kristin,

and Art Journal Journey, which Gill is hosting for us this month.

This week I spent a lot of time walking along the shore of the Rhine and through the fields, picking flowers, picking up stones and feathers to bring home, and watching the other people, boats, birds and animals who were out and about. It's good to be able to enjoy the summer days.

I painted the flowers very loosely, using just three acrylic colours - red, blue and yellow,  a large brush, and my fingers, not trying for definition or details, just having fun. I gave the finished painting a digital frame and added the sentiment. I am linking to 'Nature's wonders' at AJJ.

And here is another of my birdie doodles, once again, just for fun and keeping my fingers busy while watching TV!

The pale moon rising silently through the trees was wonderful to see yesterday evening:

A wonderful sunrise which called me from my bed his morning:

Love the shadows on the fields - they are growing longer, which means Autumn is slowly creeping up on us:

The crows and herons are enjoying harvesting:

I wasn't the only one out walking:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
