Wilderness 3

-

Oh there's no stopping me now with my wilderness pictures is there?! This one started out as a doodle and I kept adding to it until I ended up with this wild garden although I must say it's much neater than mine!
The top picture is a flamenco dancer on her day off. I've had quite an emotional week one way or another and this emerged from my feelings.

It's a lot neater than my garden too...how about this to cheer you up...three lady guitarists are descending here in an hour...and none of us can play the piece all the way through without getting lost. And Arthur hates strangers so he will be bark, bark, barking. Probably won't be a repeat performance.

Jessie, what a long way! You will need to be on free landline calls as there will be lots of phoning each other.
I found it really hard when Luke left home, he was the first to fly the nest. I ended up doing the whole house up DIY to keep me busy. This was 6 years ago. I cannot say it gets any easier, missing them. You get ever so proud of there achievements and this brings so much joy.
My mum always say they leave and more come back.

Sending you loads of love and a huge hug!

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again. I've always been like this, going through phases of being obsessed with a particular medium thinking yes this is it! This is my final medium and then finding myself being drawn to changing once again to a different way of wor...
