Hi Everybody!
Sandie has chosen a great theme at Tag Tuesday- anything goes. The challenge runs for another week so you have plenty of time to link to us. Sandie is also doing the admin and planning, for which I am very grateful. My recovery after the operrations in October is too slow for my liking, but it is as it is!The medication that I have to take makes me tired and fuzzy, and I will be happy when I don't need to take it anymore.
I chose to make a tag to support the people of Ukraine, who are suffering so badly, many have no water, no homes, no electricity - everything has been destroyed in these vicious attacks.
And some more of my sunflower art:
This photo was not from me
These were supposed to be sunflowers, too, not so good, but I tried!
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
I love all your sunflowers Valerie. I know, I feel so bad for those people in Ukraine. Why must some leaders be so greedy? But your sunflowers are all so beautifully done. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika. It breaks my heart to see what is happening just a short distance from here, and t just goes on and on....
DeleteLovely sunflowers...yes, prayers for every suffering soul
ReplyDeleteThanks Ashok!
DeleteHi Val, good morning! I love the theme for your beautiful tag and paintings. And thanks for reminding us to pray for the people of Ukraine. They are suffering so much, Hugs from us all, Sarah.
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah those people are suffering and dying and here in Germy people are just moaning because the prices are going up. I know it's hard, but the war there is much harder!
DeleteGermany not Germy!
DeleteBardzo piekne słoneczniki.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteThey are wonderful sunflowers, Valerie. They are your sunflowers. The situation in Ukraine continues to distress us all, and there seems to be no end in sight. Putin is able to continue to inflict this misery on those embattled people in the sure knowledge that there will be no reprisals on his own territory. The only solution, it seems, rests in the hands of the Russian generals and others in high places, who need to remove Putin, preferably permanently. Even better would be to turn him over to the International Court of Justice in The Hague. The world is often a sad place. Hugs and kisses - David
ReplyDeletePutin gets away with destroying a neighbouring land and nobody stops him. He is a war criminal and needs to be treated that way! Sad indeed! Big hugs!
DeleteLove sunflowers, to me they are a happy flower, standing proud with their beautiful yellow petals. Your Tag is fab, and so is your painting, wish I could paint, I can barely colour within lines, let alone paint,lol. Take it easy and rest...xx ( I have emailed you )
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandie, I love sunflowers, too. I will read your mail now!
DeleteYour sunflowers are beautiful. I agree with what David said about the war in Ukraine. Be well.
ReplyDeleteThanks 🙏 CJ, David is right! Happy 😁😁 T Day!

Thanks so much Chrissy!
DeleteSunflowers are a symbol of summer. All of the sun flower images are beautiful. Your sunflowers capture the essence of the flower. Bright and full of sunshine. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI tried growing them but the squirrels liked them too. Never managed to get the seed harvest for the birds. The squirrels took the seed heads and ate all of the seeds. Oh well. They were enjoyed.
Love, Hugs and Blessings
Yes, squirrels love them too! Have a wonderful week!
DeleteI love sunflowers. They are bright and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, have a great day!
DeleteI love that sunflower at the top, the national flower of Ukraine. Let's all pray for peace and recovery!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea!
DeleteWe all need peace on earth.
ReplyDeleteSunflowers are so wonderful... mine in the garden are wilting now, but next summer will come again.
All good wishes for you.
Thaanks so much. Peace for the world would be wonderful!
Deletei love sunflowers:) they are so warm flowers
ReplyDeleteThat'a true, they are really special!
DeleteLove your painted sunflowers, great textures. Wonderful tag as well. Hope you are doing better. Hugs Anesha
ReplyDeleteThanks Anesha, I have good days and bad days, it can only get better!
DeleteBeautiful sunflowers Valerie, a wonderful tribute to the bravery of the Ukranian people.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better soon, and can stop the medication.
Alison
Thanks Alison, I hope, too! Have a great week!
Deleteall of your remembrances for ukraine are beautiful and meaningful. hoping for peace and safety soon. xo
ReplyDeleteLet's hope peace will prevail!
DeleteSo glad I looked back and saw this incredible tag you have given us honoring Ukraine. What a beauty. I also LOVE the sunflowers you drew and the other ones you gave us.
ReplyDeleteI just learned this morning that Putin isn't attending the G7 climate conference, but sending Laslov instead. Biden doesn't plan to meet with him, but plans to meet with Xi of China on more than just climate change.
Feel better soon, dear. I hope you can rid yourself of that medication soon.
Glad you like the tag and the flowers. If I write what I think about Putin I might get into trouble.... I will have to take the tablets for a long time, but it is as it is!
DeleteYour sunflowers are lovely.
ReplyDeletePrayers for peace.
All the best Jan
Thanks 🙏🙏 Jan!
DeleteI love your tag and your inspiration for it too! Sunflowers are so fascinating, hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Chris!
DeleteI love your bright and very uplifting post today Valerie. Your tag is just beautiful and my heart goes out to the people of Ukraine. I hope the tablets you are on are working their magic and you will be back on top form soon!!
ReplyDeleteThe photo of the sunflowers has a stark, surreal feel to it. Your painted sunflowers are happy and cheerful. I'll take yours hands down, Valerie!
