dc little red riding hood

I started very enthusiastic an almost classical

scene.... had to try another one, one i never found 

in my book when i was a child, and could not resist  drawing the one below,

iconic, that's how much they are a part of our past and present,

are you looking forward to more little red hooded girls and big bad wolves,

please visit Patrice's beautiful and stylish blog to find out

where they are hiding

have a good weekend

captivated by collages and mixed media

(last dance of the roses)

the ideas and images keep coming,

 there's something very 

satisfying about finding the right paper, cutting and tearing the forms and building up layers

 there is a shortage of natural light, daylight , i stop painting when the 

darkness sets in but it doesn't hold me back from cutting and gluing.

dc habit

habit; patterns of thinking and behaviour  that have become very obvious for ourselves but are noticed by
others or that are noticed by us from time to time , for example by pondering over 'habit' as it is this week's theme
presented to us by  Kristen,
please take a look at this talented lady's blog for more,

have a lovely weekend

november garden and the weeping forest

there is that november stillness in the garden

a bird scratching

the crunching of dried leaves

flames without fire

a soft humanlike sigh through the bushes

and that scent

oh a scent awakening all senses

(the weeping forest)

thank you so much for the good vibes and wishes 

you sent me, i'm feeling much better;

i'll visit you soon, x

grow flippers when you need them

my studio table is covered with sketches and work in the making, 

but today i woke up with aching muscles, a cotton brain and rather feverish,

 i don't function, can't concentrate nor think clear enough,

i'll have to slow down the rest of the week i'm afraid

i finished 'grow flippers when you need them' yesterday

see you all next week

dc abbild /portrayal

Our fabulous host and dc driving force Ariane, came up with a splendid theme this week,
a theme with that many possibilities it made my imagination run wild and i didn't really knew what to pick 'till, by chance, i heard this song, Midnight Oil's 'where do we sleep when our beds are burning'.
I decided to try and do the portayal of a song,
 this song, with it's clear message and compelling beat, a chorus that always made me dance and sing along.

please go to Ariane's 'Rose'  for more

 he could have sworn it was not just his imagination and the fog,

 he even thought he heard something like soft singing,

 snippets of a melody '

Lovely creative  Norma came up with a theme

blog and shiver!!!

october garden

dc leaves

I walk a wide forest path

leaves are falling

warm colored show of elegant swirling

it makes me feel like dancing

(I danced)

then i see the whole scene as a 

fast-forward -playing movie

Now I dance really rapidly (and it looks weird)

the leaves are falling very quickly

bare branches, the carpet grows...

naked trees

a carpet discoloring, digesting, perishing...

(by now i've long been home)

STOP!  rewind

go back

stay here for awhile

crimson

burgundy

burnt sienna

honey

caramel

chocolate

saffron

indianred

wine

melon

gold

we couldn't ignore the leaves, could we,

Sabine (Miss Hezrfrisch) made us even look closer

please take a look at her beautiful place

to see lots of leaves

have a colorful weekend
