Hi Everybody!
Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, whatever you were up to. I had a quiet weekend and enjoyed several nice walks and visited a friend for coffee and biscuits, which was very nice. And I was a bad blogger - forgot all about taking pics, sorry!
For Matilde's birds challenge at AJJ I have another of my dotty pictures. It's an A3 piece painted with acrylics and acrylic pens. The bird was painted with gold acrylic and glitter and is flying among the stars. I am wondering if David will find a name for this one?
And although I forgot to take photos of our coffee, I still found some coffee pics for you, meant as my entrance ticket to Elizabeth's and Bleubeard's TsFT which starts this evening. Here I would also like to welcome all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here:
Lovely dotty page. The coffee looks good and I love the poppies.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine. Poppies are always so beautiful!
DeleteWhen I see polk dots now I usual think of Yayoi Kusama.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
I like dots, too! Have a good week!
DeleteWhat a beautiful bird, Valerie. I really like it. You draw so well! Thanks for another great entry at AJJ using Matilde's theme.
ReplyDeleteWhat great fun you gave us with the adorable mug and the lovely cups and such you found in the village on your walk. They are all lovely. Thanks for these great photos you shared with us for T this week, dear.
Those are incredible poppies. So is that horse on the other side of the road. BTW, it's nice to see the drivers know which side of the road on which to drive, too (grin).
Thanks E, perhaps the horse doesn't know left from right! But it was on the path, so that's something. See you later, hugs, Valerie
DeleteI see you linked to T. I was going to, but got stuck on a call to the company that made my hot water heater. Unfortunately, I have to return it to the store where it was purchased. Sorry I was so slow in linking you, though.
DeleteOh, I didn't Link, I thought you had. Or I linked when I was almost asleep. Whatever, Hope you get a water heater that works! Hugs!
DeleteGreat pictures đ Have a nice Monday đ
ReplyDeleteThanks Martyna!
DeleteA horse seems surprising on a walk in what I thought was an urban area. You must be more rural than I realized. All the flowers look lovely.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
It's more rural than urban here!
DeleteA fantastic journal spread and a happy dotty background for the bird.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing the photos and I hope that horse was safe with the traffic close by.
Have a good week and stay safe.

Thanks Yvonne, there was a girl with the horse, she just wasn't visible!
DeleteThe bird soaring across the bright blue sky among the stars is so uplifting. Such beautiful showy flowers on your walk. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThanks CJ, have a great, new week!
DeleteIt sounds like you have a lovely weekend, and you must be so excited (still) to be able to enjoy it at home. We had beautiful weather too. It was wonderful. I love your bird in the dotty sky. That copper color glows beautifully. And sounds like you had some nice walks too. I hope you have a wonderful T day and start to the new week. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika, I had fun making that Page! Glad you had good weather! Hugs!
DeleteInteresting to see a horse taking a walk along the road all on its own. Love the big poppy flowers. Hugs. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteStrange things Happen!
DeleteToo bad you didn't take pics of your meeting. Loved your dotty picture!
ReplyDeleteYes, it was a delicious meeting!

Thanks Alison, glad you like i! Hve a great day!
DeleteGreat bird page, Valerie. Love the dots and the gold. Fun coffee pictures - I want the polka dot tea cup! The poppies are beautiful and such a lovely color. Wow. Loved all your pictures. Sorry I haven't been around for a few weeks - life just got in the way of blogging and art for a bit, but glad I am back as I missed all of you. Happy T-day. Hugz
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, great to see you around again, I missed you!
DeleteYou are never a bad blogger. I like your gold bird and I wonder if the owner knew his horse was out for a stroll.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It was strange to see the horse on it's own - then a girl came running and grabbed the reins!
DeleteA beautiful bird and sky. Vee xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Vee, have a great day!
DeleteThank you for taking me on your walk, and showing me the huge poppies and the beautiful chestnut tree. I also like the shop windows.
ReplyDeleteLove your dotty page with the bird.
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
I love taking people on my walks, glad you enjoyed it. The chestnut trees are very beautiful this year! Hugs!

ReplyDeleteI love your shiny metallic bird and those beautiful poppies. I think you are a bit ahead of us as my poppies only have leaves so far, no flowers at all. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Elle. Spring is always early here, it's very mild here along the Rhine.
DeleteI like that dotty background :) You see sooo many lovely flowers on your walks! Happy T Tuesday
ReplyDeleteAt the moment I can't stop being dotty! Happy T Day!

DeleteHi Valerie: I left a comment here, but it has disappeared. I have no idea what happens sometimes. Hugs and kisses, David
ReplyDeleteHi David, Blogger or recaptcha seems to gobble up comments!
DeleteHi Valerie! I absolutely love all of the photos you took on your walk on Sunday! I especially like the one of the horse on the other side of the street going for a walk, too! And your metallic bird painting is so beautiful and very creative! I really like the polka-dotted background! Thanks for sharing it with all of us!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon, s glad you liked it! Have agreat week!

ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie, hugs!
DeleteSuch a gorgeous art page! All of those dots must have taken ages to create and I love the bird soaring across the page đ. The photos are super too, I like the horse taking a walk and the smily cup is super cute - Happy T Day! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo! The dots really take up a lot of time, but it's a very meditative process.
DeleteWhat a beautiful page Valerie! I love watching buzzards flying around - we get a few around here. Loved seeing pics from your walk. Those poppies are huge! Happy T Day, hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, thanks so much, have a great week!
DeleteHello Valerie! I'm delighted with the background. I love polka dots :) Thanks for another great entry at AJJ using my theme đ
ReplyDeleteThanks Matilde, have a great day!
DeleteLove your coffe pics, and your Sunday walk photos, too. I especially liked that you got one of the horse walking. Lovely dotty page for AJJ. I just got back to town, so am late. Happy T Day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon, enjoy your day!
DeleteI don't know what happened to my comment, it kept saying it was publishing but I don't think it did so here goes again.
ReplyDeleteThose poppies are gorgeous, what a beautiful colour and the edges are so frilly and delicate. I always enjoy seeing the windows of the shops you pass by and these are so pretty.
That is a lovely page, a gorgeous shade of blue and such a lot of dots, must have taken you a while to paint them all in, but how effective is that!
Hugs, Neet xx
Hi Neet, Blogger is really being a pain in the neck just now, and this happens all the time, sorry! Those poppies are wonderful indeed. I love making my dotty pages, they are very meditative. Hugs
DeleteLoving the dotty art work and so nice to be able to join you once again with your lovely walk. Happy crafting, Angela xXx
