Rain and more rain but also...

violets and pansies still showing off

preparing a small party

amazed by grasses 

 turquoise thought, once more

Drawing challenge / Letters

You wrote me your green mountains

sky-blue

wooly clouds

Gold and orange,

your laughter filled rooms

children at play

Your lines painted me darker tones too

and 

whites and turquoise 

the secrets of your heart

I saw your smile

and heard you 

close.

Mano's wonderful theme made me scribble on a small piece of cardboard,

 some black paper and take up my brush.

For more please visit her very creative Mano's welt,

and enjoy our 'letters'.

Nice weekend!

The traveller

Still redecorating

After many tough and also blurred years dealing with all 

kind of consequenses of a severe car accident we had,

it really feels like we are starting a new chapter.....at last.

Things were already pointing that direction,

 not at least with the arrival of a beautiful grandson last year,

 and now... with repainting 

the rooms....YES, we got through....other times has arrived.

We bought an old shool cabinet at the local auction house,

(inside it smells school like and has ink stains in the bottom part)

my partner did a brilliant job painting it 

(why not do a total make over and change the furniture as well)

light, light...let there be light!

Do you remember  Body, heart and soul,

as you can see i came across three old wooden balls,

which seemed just right , so i replaced the three ladies,

i like it better now.

Drawing challenge / Shadows

Thanks to lots of sunshine

and thanks to wonderful inventive Ariane

here are 'shadows'

the light painting images

fleeting imitations

changing with the hours

 concealing their owners

but uncovering them at the same time

fading as night falls

I tried to grab shadows

Please take a look at Ariane's blog 'Rose' and watch the shadows

Nice weekend to you all!

Yesterday and the day before

the fox and the raven were waiting for me in the thrift shop

a tired dove landed on my open door and peeped inside,

i tried to chase her away because the cats had noticed her too

she wouldn't go,so i gave her water and some bread

afterwards she sat on the roof and left

basket of soap from the flea-market

work in progress

Garden today

(you can click to enlarge)

 The oriental poppies are blooming, the red ones (Rembrandt) flaming and blazing

under a golden sun, the pink ones (Prinzessin Viktoria Luise) more subdued,

more quiet and also harder to grow, but they are having an interesting conversation

the painter and the princess ;)

Drawing challenge / Paper doll drama

Between the folds of her skirt lives a little girl, a litttle girl blowing bubbles.

She knows that little girl, but she's not always aware of her presence .

Though sometimes the tickling of the bursting bubbles makes her giggle...

or sigh , or smille.

(She knows now, some dreams are meant to be just dreams.)

The beauty of the shiny bubbles will keep surprising her and the little girl  doesn't 

make any preparation to leave (she will probably live there forever).

For more paper doll drama please visit the wondrous world of 

Norma.

Happy weekend! X
