Midweek post

Hi Everybody!

Hope your week is going well. I'm happy to say I'm feeling a bit better, the meds are doing their work and I feel almost normal - whatever normal is these days! Today I have another of my spring ladies to share for my challenge at AJJ, and this will be the last one. I'll be back on Friday to start the new challenge at AJJ. This is an A3 mixed media piece, using acrylic paints, pens and collaged pieces. The photos are not really good, it was a dark and dismal day when I took them:







Some spring photos:



A magnificent, mossy, old beech tree in the park:










Some funnies:





Flowers from the dining table:


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

  1. Those memes are beyond funny. Love 'em. Also love your lady. She'll have good luck coming her way since a butterfly landed on her, let's trust it rubs off on the artist:)

  2. Those copper eyes are striking and work so well on this sophisticated lady. And you has a wonderful bee too. You did an amazing job drawing that. I can see the gold too. Very nicely done and a great way to end this month. It was lots of fun making spring pages. Enjoy your spring garden at the clinic, and I'm glad to hear this week is going better. Hugs-Erika

  7. Thank you for the latest lady, Valerie, with a butterfly and a bee to be her companions. Now I know she is my kind of woman. Perhaps your choice of insects is symbolic, that a woman can be as sweet and beautiful as a butterfly, but watch out if you make her angry, she will sting like a bee. Too bad a bee wouldn't sting Putin's tongue to make it swell up and choke off all his words. Choking him totally would be even better. Is any man in the world more reviled? I glad that you are feeling a little more like your old self and that the medications appear to be doing their job. The degree of pharmacological intervention that can be achieved these days never ceases to amaze me. Today I was supposed to lead a group of over twenty people along the north shore of Lake Ontario on a bird walk, but for the second week in a row we had to cancel due to weather. Yesterday was a little cool, but beautiful, but today there will be freezing rain, sleet, and the prospect of hazardous driving conditions. A good day to stay at home, I think. Take good care of yourself and continue to get better. That is a direct order from all of Canada, from rich and poor, slender and portly, young and old, native born and immigrant, black, white, yellow or brown, from the youngest baby to the centenarian - stay well, Valerie. I can hear them shouting it now! Hugs and kisses, David

    2. I just took another look at the picture. I think what we have been referring to as a bee is in reality a moth!

  8. Wow what a beautiful lady, I love the butterfly and the bee, though the sentiment made me feel rather sorry for butterflies lol. I'm so glad that you are feeling better, please give me a shout when you know what 'normal' is! Take care and have a lovely week, Sue xx

  9. I'd say the photos are still quite lovely because they show this beautiful lady with the leaves in her hair. I love how you added the butterfly and especially that incredible bee at the nape of her neck. Truly a beauty for your final entry using your theme at AJJ, dear.

    Loved the two dogs and some really cute memes, too. Glad the meds are starting to work.

  14. Another gorgeous goddess and wise words. The 7th picture from your goddess, the brick building with the t2 flowering trees in front, looks almost like one of the buildings at the college where Himself teaches. Before it was a community college, it was a parochial school and convent for the nuns who taught there. Glad to hear you're feeling so much better.

    1. The building was built for deaconesses, something like protestant nuns, who cared for the sick and needy. Florence Nightingale did her training here.

  19. Your bee lady is beautiful. (I was tempted to say bee-utiful) and I love the bee at her throat.
    SDo glad you are feeling better does that mean they have found the cure? I do hope it means you can go home soon and begin to enjoy the balcony and the birds. They must wonder where you are.
    Great funnies, and the two dogs sheltering are lovely.
    Take care, Hugs, Neetxx
