Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Have a wonderful weekend, stay safe!

Just a quick post, my fingers are very painful again.

I made an A3 mixed media page featuring Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo:







Today' sunrise was wonderful. When I woke up the crescent moon  and Venus were visible:


You can see the shadow of the full moon:










All that and cappuccino as well - wonderful!

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

TGIF

Hi Everybody!

It's Friday again, the weekend is almost here, let's enjoy it! 

For Paint Party Friday I am sharing a piece made after watching a lesson, 'Earth Mother', from Melanie Rivers. I made an A3 mixed media piece on a sheet of paper which was already painted and partly collaged. I made a mess while trying to make some white drips at the top, so covered them up with feathers. The collaged plants were gifted me by Avril, thanks again.

I wrote this verse to accompany the painting:

The Earth Mother

She arises from the earth,

Clothed with the dignity of wisdom,

Which is her beauty and her strength.

The light of the sacred moon

Shines in her eyes

And blesses and awes those who recognise her.

She carries the stars on her cloak

And brings the water of life to mankind.

She is there for all who search for her,

Treat her well.








And I have some more pictures from yesterday's walk, today's pics are still in the camera:



A lot of the trees along the Rhine are now bare of leaves:





It was a grey and misty day:









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

Rain's Thursday Art Date - points and spots

 Hi Everybody!

I was thinking what to dig out for Rain's theme, and remembered that I had used lots of dots and spots in the junk journal I made to get rid of my scraps earlier this year, and am showing a selection of them here:

This first page is also meant for Wendy's 'birds' challenge at AJJ:



















And a few photos from my walk today:
