T sTands for something or other

Hi Everybody!

Today I am sharing an A3 acrylic painting, once again with a vase and a cup/glass, made 2 weeks back. Once again I had fun playing with dots and circles - stamped with a paint pot lid, and just playing around. This is of course my ticket to Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday drink/link  party which will be beginning this evening. Not much bla-bla today, I fell twice at the weekend and am in a lot of pain:

And this is what my table looked like when I was finished. Actually, it did'nt look much different before I started on it - I need to do a little clean up:

And I love how my painting-water glass looks:

I deadheaded my balcony flowers and a few tiny pieces were too nice to thow away. The little glass they are in is one of the sherry glasses from my great Auntie Fanny:

And on the shelf:

Coffee on Saturday:

So sweet:

Egyptian cats:

Do they still treat us as gods?
Well, I sh*t in  a box nd then they clean it!

Very good!

Have a Happy T Day, Take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by!

Where in the world?

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend - enjoy!

Today I have another piece for Chris' challenge 'where in the world' at AJJ. And this time I want to ask you to which land  all of these pictures are connected. I'm sure you will all know straightaway1 To make this collage I used pieces of older collages made many years ago and made a remix:

We are having a stormy, bad-weather phase, but I prefer it to too hot any day! This was yesterday evening:

And I took the pics of my balcony garden early this morning before the storm started:

My hens and chicks get bigger from day to day. It was fascinating to watch the rain falling like a waterfall, and thunder and lightning made a good background concert:

And some thinkies and funnies:

Have a great weekend, take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by!

Thursday/Friday Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I am sharing another piece for Chris' challenge 'where in the world' at AJJ. The background picture is a free-to-use photo taken by Drew Rae and found at Pexels, and  the other characters were added from my collection of odds and sods. The 2 ladies are hand-made lino cuts, ca. 6'' tall that I made back in the day when I could still use my fingers properly. The quote is from Nelson Mandela:

And On Friday we will be enjoying Nicole's FFO and Gillena's AFFF, where I will also be linking.

So here some faces, dug up from my vaults:

This is my Great Grandmother again:

And this lady looks sad:

And this I made in 2020. I drew the figure onto folded paper, cut round it  through all the layers and pasted it onto the first page of a new journal I was starting. We used to make paper dollies and animals like this when I was small. The positive attributes I used for their heads were a freebie from Tam:

This is also an ancient piece:

Child reality back in the late 19th/early 20th centuries:

Journal pages- top left is a photo of my mum, me and my big sister Ruth in the early 1950's. I remember I was standing on a box to make myself look bigger!

This was made after a trip to London and a wonderful concert I enjoyed while I was there:

I think everone knows this man - I just hope the leaf doesn't fall into my coffee:

The photo is one I took in the fields at the bottom of our street. I digitally changed it to look like a painting and then added an overlay - fun!

And this is the Sky disc from Nebra - a wonderful face!

Have a great day, take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by!
