T sTands for This and ThaT on Monday

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend. I'm happy to say that the new meds seems to be working, my blood pressure is down and I can breathe more easily. I still need to take things very easy, and have more tests and examinations scheduled, so I hope it all goes well.

For my spring challenge at AJJ and for Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party which starts this evening I have another coffee and flowers scene, painted with acrylics on an A3 page. Welcome to all of the lovely ladies of the T gang who visit here:







Some photos taken in our park on Sunday:



I love the old buildings here:



Part of an old fresco discovered during renovations:



A beautiful door:



A rusty, old pump especially for Elizabeth:








Some funnies:



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

    I love your painting very much, and all of the lovely photos. That rusty pump would make an awesome rust print on to fabric for sure. Enjoyed see all of the spring blooms-No blooms here as of yet but soon, as we warm up allot this week.

  9. I am very pleased to hear that you are feeling better, Valerie, and that the medications are doing their job. It's understandable that you still need to take it easy for a while, but at least you will be able to do that in greater comfort. Brief comment this morning, as we are scurrying around with my daughter to get her ready to leave. Hugs and kisses, David

  10. Glad that things are improving for you. Your bright and cozy painting reminds me of having "coffee" with my elderly neighbor, Prissy. Beautiful Spring flowers. Even the forsythia and sky are standing with Ukraine. The pussywillows would make a great t-shirt design and the door to the men's room just cracked me up. Happy T Day

  16. It's great to read that they may now have your meds under control. I sure hope so. Now the worst may be over.

    Love the coffee pot and mug of steaming coffee. I also like seeing the errant petals that have dropped from the vase. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us at AJJ, as well as T this Tuesday.

    You know me SO well. I absolutely LOVE that rusty pump. WOW, what I could do with that if I had fabric I could wrap around it! I also love the pussy willows. They are very different from the ones we get here (grin). Take care and feel better every day, dear.

  18. The blue and the orange in your painting work together so well. I love how those 2 colors contrast each other, and they certainly do in your pretty painting. And hurrah for some good news with the new meds. That is good to hear out here in blog land too. Hope your week isn't too exhausting. Hugs-Erika

  19. Your paintings and photos are very cheering on a day that for us is grey and not nice in many ways. Finally finding effective meds for your blood pressure is good news. I hope you keep improving.

    p.s. sorry I haven't been around, my tablet has given up the ghost and it looks like I'll have to get a new one (eek!) so I've resorted to using my laptop for now which isn't as convenient. x
