Hi Everybody!
Today I have another feathery piece meant for Neet's fur or feathers challenge at AJJ. It's an A3 piece made with diluted acyrl colours and acryl ink, and some acryl pens for the dots:
Some thinkies/funnies:
(Yet) Another sunrise:
And some of our feathered friends, including Canadian Geese for David!
Have a great weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
I like your art and I never tire of your sunrises.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see the lovely feathered friends.
Have a restful weekend.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan, have a wonderful weekend!
DeleteBeautiful feathery piece today and fun thinkies. The sunrise is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, enjoy your weekend!
DeleteHi Val, good morning! Lovely journal page and photos, as always! The family is coming today, everything is ready! Your birds today are very pretty! Have a great weekend, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah, have a nice weekend with the family, hugs to all!
DeleteLove your spotty birds. The feathers are really lovely. I like that touch. If I lived where you live. With that beautiful sunrise every morning, I'd probably be getting up much earlier than I already do. Have a great weekend. Deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb! Confession time - I often go back to bed again after I have watched the sunrise! Have a great weekend, hugs!
DeleteMore beautiful sunrises, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteA lovely journal page again too. I love the spotted birds and their feathers that have fallen below, Also the background to the birds with your diluted acrylic colours. It reminds me of the days dad and I used to go whinberry picking and mum made a pie and served it with cream. The colours the fruit made with the cream is a fond memory and your colours have brought that back to me.
Thanks also to the funnies/thinkies - love the cat's face.
Hugs, Neet xx
Thanks Neet. Glad the colours brought back happy 😊 memories for you. The cat's face 😈 is really remarkable. Have a great weekend, hugs!
DeleteI was sure I had caught up, because I had seen your Friday post a few hours ago. Now I see you have weekend post. I can't seem to ever catch up!
ReplyDeleteThose birds are wonderful and the feathers are great, too. I really like how you drew those birds. This is very clever. It's another great entry for Neet's theme at AJJ.
Love those sunrises, but will never love seeing Canadian geese. They will surely take over the world one of these days. Have a super weekend, dear Valerie.
I always think I have caught up and when I look again there are more blogs to visit. Now we know why the Canadians are sending their geese everywhere! You enjoy your weekend, too. Hugs!
DeleteWunderschönes Kunstwerk hast du wieder ausgedacht und gemalt! Die schönen Fotos begeisternd mich und all das andere zum Nachdenken!
ReplyDeleteIch wünsche dir ein schönes Wochenende!
Lieben Gruß Elke
Danke, liebe Elke. Ich hoffe dass du gesund und munter bist. Have a great weekend, hugs!
DeleteGood morning, Valerie: This post garners special merit because it is pretty much filled with birds. What a great idea Neet had, to come up with fur and feathers as a topic; it is self-evident that it should be extended for a week! There is so much scope. Perhaps one day soon when you are gazing out your window at the sunrise, one of those special birds of Balconia-by-the-Rhine will fly past your window and sing to you in greeting. What a fine way to greet the day. Your inspiration and appreciation will be so complete you'll resist the temptation to go back to bed. Instead you will put on a pair of your funky shoes and march (okay shuffle) down to the Rhine to spend time with those gorgeous CANADA Geese. Shall I send you the words and sheet music for our national anthem to be sung while gazing upon their perfection, all the while taking great care to avoid their copious donations of poop. Standing to attention, hockey stick in hand is the recommended protocol. Be sure to have someone on hand to take pictures. Ever your biggest fan from the True North Strong and Free. Hugs and kisses - David
ReplyDeleteHi David, I can hear your anthem, 'O Canada' resounding in my mind as ai read your words in praise if your flying national bird. Here it is renowned for is beauty and hated for the poop, as you said! I love Neet's theme, and have been enjoying making journal pages for her. My special balcony blackbird visits every day, and hops up and down till he gets something. And hoc keyy - I usedx to LOVE playing hockey at school and college, and in the 80s and 90s I played in a ladies team, and it was fun. Today I'm going out to visit my friend and wil wear my funky red shoes with silver trim, yessssssssss! But beforehand I will enjoy another cup of coffee! Have a great weekend, BIG hugs to you and Miriam!
DeleteLovely bird art vj. Love your sunrise shots!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ashok! Enjoy your weekend!
DeleteLovely birds on this piece Valerie. I like those spots a lot! And I like those feathers you created too. I think your two spotted birds must be a rare variation of albino birds-smile. But then the variety you see in feather colors is always amazing- as your bird photos show. And you do have wonderful sunrises from your balcony. I hope you have a wonderful and artful weekend. Here it is really cold this morning and last night. And I am not turning on the heat with the cost of it just yet so I look like something strange in 3 layers and a winter hat. Smile. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika. The birds are once more exclusive to Balconia-by-the Rhine! I love sunrise, and the sun always wakes me up, but mostly I crawl back into bed again afterwards. I visited a friend this afternoon, and we needed blankets! Enjoy your weekend, hugs, Valerie
DeleteFun birds. Your sunrise photos are so gorgeous. I'm too lazy to be up at that hour. Well, I get up to feed the kitties, but then I go back to bed.. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteGoing back to bed again is always good, I'm so happy I don't need to go to work day by day! Have a great weekend!
DeleteLove your artwork and the geese. Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra, have a great weekend!
DeleteThe little dots really make it! Do you share these on Eileen's Saturday critters? They're wonderful pix!
ReplyDeleteNo, that's not a blog I know, I'll look it up. Thanks for the tip and have a great weekend!
