T sTands for This and ThaT

Hi Everybody!
A new week has started, let's see what it brings. 

This evening we will be celebrating Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday drink & link party, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here. I have some drinks to show you:


Thiss picture was taken last week in my kitchen, my first coffee of the day, yessssss!




And some of my creations:


This picture is hanging in the living room of a friend:


I painted a lot of these still life with coffee pictures a couple o years back, it was very relaxing:






Last week I joined in a 5 day retreat with Sue Young of Sujati Studio, and I enjoyed it. It helped take my mind off the awful happenings in the world just now - where and when will it end?

One of the pieces we made was this art muse, but I an calling her an angel of peace,  because we so need peace in our world just now:



And some funnies and Thinkies:











Happy T Day, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

Weekend post

Hi Everybody!

Hope you are all doing well and I wish us all a great weekend!
Today I have a hybrid piece for Neet's 'In gear' challlenge at AJJ:


                        
And I have a piece I made for a course I did. It should have been painted, and I made it with soft pastels, sso it wasn't as detailed as it should have been, but at the moment I have other problems, like very shaky hands again, So please excuse any spelling mistakes! And I actually like the picture as it is!
 



And I have some funnies/thinkies:








Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

TGIF

Hi Everybody!

Thanks God it's Friday! Why?  Why not!?

I made this face this week, and showed it a couple of days ago, but now it is finished:







The view from my window this week:




This is a butterfly face, I'm sure they have faces....




I used my old water colours. These are from Winsor and Newton, I have had them for about 20 years:


And these are Schminke colours which I had when I went to school, and before that my big sister had used them, so they must have been bought at the end of the 1940s The round pans aren't made anymore, so I have to buy the little square ones when I need new ones:


The cat was also made some years back:


A journal page:


These figures are all printed from lino cuts I made:






Another cat:



And an owl:


These faces are large, a bit larger than a real face:


I love these chirpy birds:


And the last 2 are just painted faces:



I am linking to Nicoles FFO and

Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!
