Hi Everybody!
It's weekend - enjoy! My week has been good on the whole, with lots of walks and mostly passable weather. Hope you had a great week, too.
Today I have one more tag to share for Wendy's theme 'Sea World' at Tag Tuesday. The quote is from Shakespeare's 'Tempest'. I combined elements
from Serif and me:
This is an A3 mixed media collage using photos and magazine cut-outs on a painted and with scraps collaged background:
I am linking to Paint Party Friday
I have some photos from our walks from the past week. These were taken at a medieval castle in Ratingen:
The old brewery in Niederkassel:
A wonderful idea for a fence, here in front of a school:
That's all for today. Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
That school fence is amazing. Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful photos and tag collages

MUCHđ¨LOVE
Beautiful art and photos again. I remember learning that poem at school! And I spotted you and your mum on the journal page! The castle is lovely, and the school fence is a winner, great photos of you, too. And you caught that magpie so well. Have a fun day, take care, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteLovely sea tag and gosh love that school fence. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely place and your art is so beutiful and creative, you've got talent! I am also following, greetings from Poland ☺
ReplyDeleteThanks Natalia!
DeleteFabulous art today and I did enjoy the visit to the castle. It looks cool but beautiful walking weather. And what a cool pencil wall. That is very clever. Happy almost weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks, That pencil wall is really wonderful, a great idea.
DeleteDelicious eye candy you created. The tower of the castles looks like the tower Rapunzel was kept in. I love the Fraktur sign on the brewery. Such beautiful letters. Cute and clever fence. Wouldn't mind that around my Zensical garden. Enjoy your day
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be too hard to make a fence like that....
DeleteYou live in the most beautiful area, so much history, your walks are always a treat to see. Your tag and collage work is wonderful, you have such talent for knowing what looks best and where to put it. I think that fence is just the best thing ever lol,, love that!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tag and mixed media, the weather looks great, enjoyed your photos today!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous tag and page! I love the Shakespeare quote that you used and the collage images looks amazing đ. Of course the brewery caught my eye, I wouldn't mind stopping for a beer ...lol! The pencil fencing is fabulous, you can't help but smile đ. Happy Friday and Weekend! J đ x
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you would enjoy their beer and schnapps, and perhaps a delicious bacon pancake with it!
DeleteWhat a fence! Perfect for a school.
ReplyDeleteYour Sea World tag is lovely. Great quote and the images look fabulous.
The old castle looks so fun to visit. The old brewery does too. :) Happy weekend!

Wonderful tag Valerie !! Love the beautiful background, fisch and seagull, the quote is so nice. Love your Art collage page too, very special and unique. this is a wonderful casttle, so lovely bird, and the fence is very happy for the school, thanks so much for sharing those always fabulous photographs with us.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a very nice weekend, with good weather,
Big hugs, Caty
Thanks Caty, you have a great weekend, too.
DeleteThat bench with the view of the castle looks like a delightful place to spend some time. I'm excited by that bird! We don't have anything like that here. The fence is adorable and -as you say- perfect for a school :)
ReplyDeleteThe bird is a European magpie, a member of the crow family, very pretty and very loud.
DeleteWe do get crows here lol but flat black is the only way they come. They do share the loud quality. Such a colorful relative! And smart if they're like our crows.
DeleteThey are very clever and cheeky birds!
DeleteA wonderful tag with a great quote and loved the page with the collage of photos and magazine cut outs.
ReplyDeleteAll the photos were super, my favourite today was of the fence, looking like it had been made with giant pencils. It would be great to have it as a school fence.
Have a good weekend Valerie.

Great shot of the bird.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
Coffee is always a good idea!
DeleteI would have been by sooner, but I have been busy working on my lawn mower, at least until it got dark. Then I ate a bite and promptly fell asleep. The joys of home ownership.
ReplyDeleteThat tag is fabulous. I adore it. It's perfect for Wendy's theme. And that collage is incredible.
Of course, the photos, especially that bird, made my day. Beautiful art and incredible photos of you and your friend.
Ratingen is really pretty. I love the turquoise on the brewery trim and that fence is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photographs here, and I love the colourful fence.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend.
All the best Jan
