The last day of Indian Summer

Hi Everybody!

Here we had a Sunday which  honoured its name with 
cool, crisp air and hours of sunshine. Days like this really are a gift
of nature.

At Art Journal Journey our challenge, 'Indian Summer', is
drawing to a close and on Tuesday we are starting
a new theme - be sure to come by and learn all about it!

I have made a collage of all of my pages again:


And this is the last page which I didn't get round to showing yet. It is a hybrid page with a painted, stamped  and dripped background and a photo of one of the lakes here:




And here some more impressions of the autumn landscape taken in the past couple of days:







The sheep and horses were grazing peacefully in the field:




I wonder why the heron was there alongside them?


The geese were waddling about looking for food:




 The leaves get less and less on the trees - winter will soon be here:


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

Autumn sunshine

Hi Everybody!

Today we were blessed with sunshine after several days of 
grey in grey.  I like all weathers, but it is really special
when the sun shines.

At Art Journal Journey,  our Indian summer theme is
coming to a close, and it has been fun to see all the lovely
entries linked to us.  I have a mixed media piece with some digital additions:




And today I am sharing some photos of this beautiful Autumn day, taken at Schloss Kalkum:













The Heron was posing at the stream by our house:






Autumn colours along the Rhine:


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

This is, once again, just a small selection of the paintings there,
I am still overwhelmed!

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