TGIF

 Hi Everybody!

Another week has flown by. The Corona statistics are still on the up and up, from Monday on we will be in Lockdown again, and must get used once again to a lot of new rules. A lot of people are complaining again, perhaps they would rather get sick and die. I know it' s hard for a lot of people, but I'm hopeful that it will help to push the statistics back down.

Today I am sharing another set of A5 mixed media pieces inspired by a lesson from Melanie Rivers

And I have another spread in my 16" x 8" junk journal:

I am linking both pieces  to Paint Party Friday and to Chris' 'Hold the Line' theme at AJJ

Have a great day, take care,

And 2 poems if you like poetry:

Song of the Witches: “Double, double toil and trouble”

BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

(from Macbeth)

Double, double toil and trouble;

Fire burn and caldron bubble.

Fillet of a fenny snake,

In the caldron boil and bake;

Eye of newt and toe of frog,

Wool of bat and tongue of dog,

Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,

Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,

For a charm of powerful trouble,

Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Double, double toil and trouble;

Fire burn and caldron bubble.

Cool it with a baboon's blood,

Then the charm is firm and good.

"This living hand, now warm and capable"

BY JOHN KEATS

This living hand, now warm and capable

Of earnest grasping, would, if it were cold

And in the icy silence of the tomb,

So haunt thy days and chill thy dreaming nights

That thou would wish thine own heart dry of blood

So in my veins red life might stream again,

And thou be conscience-calm’d–see here it is–

I hold it towards you.

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
