Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Here's to a happy weekend for us all. I'm planning on resting, reading, painting, eating, chatting atc. Sounds good to me! 

I made this very large painting (A1) way back in 1995. I was in a painting group, and we each got a quote to paint. The original quote, from Luciano De Crescenzo was: ' We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another'. Somehow this appealed to me, so I made this huge painting using acrylics and diluted acrylics. I don't think I would paint it like this today, but it is as it is - perhaps I will try a new one, as I don't really like this one anymore. As I haven't shown this before I am linking to Alison's 'come fly with me' challenge at AJJ:

And some more photos from 10 years ago, this is the third installment, and all some of my fave places:

This is a lake nearby:

The stream next to our house - with Canada Geese for David:

Men working in the stream, clearing away garbage and some of the plants so it doesn't get blocked up:

The Fire brigade ship:

Stairs leading to nowhere - they used to lead to the old mill. They were made from window supports taken from the castle ruins many, many years ago:

And some thinkies / funnies:

Have a great weekend, take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by! 

Flight, Flowers and Faces

Hi Everybody!

Another week  has raced by, and I got next to nothing done . The next week has to be better! (???) Today is Nicole's FFF and Gillena's AFFF But first I have a piece made for Alison's Come fly with me challenge at AJJ, made with the help of AI,  and a few added embellishments. AI is something I find very fascinating but also very scary: 

My heads:

Looks like I forgot to comb my hair. This was taken back in 2015. Funny, I have the same shirt on today!

This was also made years ago:

A collage with photos of my late husband and me as babies:

This was made in one of the Lifebook taster sessions 2 years back from a lesson with Cinnamon Cooney, I LOVE her ideas:

This was also from LB:

And some faces as funnies and thinkies:

Has he got a bad conscience!?

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
