Friday post

Hi Everybody!
Hope your week has been good. Friday is always one of my fave days as it's the lead up to weekend - always the best couple of days we have!

Today I have another piece for my geometric shapes challenge at AJJ. And as it has

 faces, too, I will be linking to Nicole's FFO, and of course to Gillena's AFFF



Cloudy skies: 

Stormy skies:




More faces- what a fabulous tram!



Faces and flowers:







And can you see the hand in the flower? And I can also see a woman on the right side!


More pics (and faces) from David Zinn:




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

Midweek Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I have a hybrid piece for Sandie's new challenge at Tag Tuesday. I am very happy that Sandie has helped me so much in the past months, otherwise our blog would not have survived - thanks again. The painting on the tag is one of mine. I had to shrink it to get it to be a tag, and the background is another painting of mine with a digital overlay:


And I have a very quick and rather different piece for my geometric shapes challenge at AJJ:


Some wonderful pictures from David Zinn:






Some thinkies and funnies:



Tulip fields in Holland:



My beautiful roses this week:


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

Monday/Tuesday Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I have another piece for my geometric shapes challenge at AJJ. I used a piece of an old canvas as background, and added the moon, planets, and the sky disc of Nebra. Then I added the pyramid  with the eye, and the Egyptian figures.




My geometric bed (Not made especially for my challenge!) :


Early morning:





And some thinkies / funnies:



Sorry, that's all for today, I am very sad because of the enormous escalation of terror in the Near East, I have family and friends in Israel.

Have a good, new week, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by.

Weekend Post - Geometric shapes 8

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a great weekend. We have lovely weather here, and my pains are so bad today that I can't go out...There's always something!

Today I have another piece for my geometric shapes challenge at AJJ. This time I used a photo taken from my window and matted with  different painted papers. I loved the stripes of colour in the sky and the angles of the branches and twigs:



This was this week's Freebie from Karen, the Graphics Fairy - so much geometry again:


And this was a piece from the 1990's, once again with geometric shapes:


More trees and lakes and geometry everywhere:



One of our lovely shops, unfortunately also very expensive:


The town hall:


The market was starting to close down:


A reminder of a wedding:


And a walk through the little park, which used to be the moat:




One of the huge (very huge) paintings I made in the clinic - I wish I had a big table to paint on:




A quick soft pastel under-the-sea sketch:



Piep-piep!



For me it should be coffee, but I'm sure Erika will agree :


More geometry:


Some thinkies/funnies:







Have a great weekend, have fun,
And thanks a lot for coming by!
