T sTands for Tuesday on Monday

Hi Everybody!
Hope you all had a great weekend, and I wish us all a good new week .

Today I have another piece for Neet's fur or feathers challenge at AJJ, and this time I am going with fur - cats. Sorry the colours are different on each photo, the metallic green/gold paint in the background was rather trying to photograph, and that's  putting it politely!






This little kitty likes cuddling up to her hoomans, but only when she wants to!

This evening we will be beginning Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday, link party, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here;

The weather forecast advises you to stay home on the couch!





















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

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

I was very sad to hear of the death of the Queen, who carried out her 'job' for 70 years.I hope her son Charles and his wife will be able to carry on her work, but in their own style. Things will change, but Queen Elizabeth ll will not be forgotten. I like this picture:



This is meant for Neet's challenge at AJJ. I had a postcard with spotted  chickens sometime in the past and tried to recreate it from memory:






This beautiful rainbow appeared yesterday evening, about the time where the Queen died:





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

Thursday/Friday Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I have a new  piece to share for various challenges. I have been working on the Art and Soul gathering and enjoying the lessons from the artists. Tamara Laport showed her beautiful Mother Nature and how she painted her. My Mother Nature looks different, but she symbolises growth and new life.I am linking to Neet's fur or feathers challenge at AJJ . Nicole's Friday Face Off and Gillena's Friday art fun:


I used acryl paint and pens on A3 paper:



The little bird has found a good home with her:


The text is hard to read - 'My soul can find no  Staircase to heaven unless it be through earth's loveliness'


Some pics from the sunrise. I love watching this while drinking my morning coffee:






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

Midweek Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I am sharing a piece inspired by Eulalia Mehija's lessson in the Art Soul Gathering. I used an A3 brush-wipe page with lots of blues as my background. The red love bird in the middle is flying to the rainbow, and the other birds are already flying high. Sorry about the bad pics, I'm blaming my fingers! I am linking to Neet's fur or feathers challenge at AJJ:




I took these pics along the Rhine this morning. The river is still very low, and we have wide 'beaches'. 'They' keep promising rain, but it's not arrived yet!








The stream is more like a puddle!



Some funnies/thinkies:





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

New Challenge at TIOT and....

Hi Everybody!

Today we are starting a new challenge at Try It On Tuesday - TIOT-and the theme this time is animals. They can be real or imaginary ones, and projects of all formats are allowed and welcome.  As usual you have 2 weeks to link to our blog. I am also linking to Neet's challenge at AJJ, as elephants are hairy and have fur in their ears. I made another elephant, this time a hippie elephant surrounded by flowers, and singing, 'If you are going to San Francisco....'





And this wonderful photo fits well:


Today we are also starting a new challenge at Tag Tuesday, and this time our lovely Wendy is hosting and roses is her theme. She has made some lovely examples on our blog. I made a hybrid piece, put together using photos, 
 and painted backgrounds, digitally combined:



And some thinkies- funnies:






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