Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend - enjoy!

This week I tried a few of the Kaleidosocope taster sessions, and it was fun. I didn't have time to do them all, but at least I managed some.
The first piece I tried was from Kim Dellow, amd her piece was light and airy, so I was a bit unhappy with mine, which was too heavy and dark:






Then I decided to try it again....and liked it even less.

 




So I tried it a third time. This one was better, but still not what I wanted. But I decided not to try again. Sometimes it's better to leave things and get on with something else!




In the evening I looked at them again, and then they didn't look quite as bad....

Some flowers from my balcony:







Stormy weather again this afternoon:


More from David Zinn:




And this last one was a consolation for me today:


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

Friday Post - What makes me happy # 10

Hi Everybody!

Another week is galloping by and the weekend is coming nearer . Today I am sharing a new piece - a huge one (70cms x 50) - which took me a long time to finish. It's always the little details at the end which take the most time!







I am linking to Matilde's 'what makes me happy' challenge, to Nicole's FFO and Gillena's AFFF.

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

Midweek Post - A bit of this and a bit of that

Hi Everybody!

Today I have a hotch-potch of different things to show you. My smart phone has recently been doing its own thing and keeps putting collages together for me





And some angry looking faces which I painted after reading a scary book, long, long ago:















I love this one - it's the view from my balcony:


This afternoon it rained really heavily for almost 2 hours:




Coffee is always good:


And a neighbour has a cow in the garden....


Some thinkies and funnies:




David Zinn again:




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