good evening all
4.2 yesterday and 4.5 today
BT were out in the sunshine yesterday up the road from the village digging trenches, this had a quite deleterious effect on our internet speed
they are out there again today in the cobbing it down rain probably trying to keep the trench from filling up with water
but at least we can get enough internet to load pages today
@jjraak - I must be in cynic mode, I notice that not only has the head Trumper managed to shift the 'tax fraud' and dodgy debate from the media cycle but he's also probably managed to head off his son's court ordered appearance before the DA to testify, since he is presumably having to self isolate
@SlimLizzy - glad the cat came back
@gennepher - I like your 'peace and love', very therapeutic
and your 'water nymph' is lovely, fluid and exuberant
@dunelm - lovely detailed branch of blossom and your heron amongst the willows is great, their posture always looks as if they are a bit downhearted but I think they are probably just lookiing to see what is swimming by that they can eat
I saw one fishng by the harbour here a couple of days ago.
Handsome 'cabinet' there, will you be adding a bovine to complete your portrait? in honour of most of their output
@Muddy Cyclist - shame the abscess is back but hopefully the pills will wrestle it into submission quickly.
the clouds in that picture are wonderful, I find them so difficult, another strong painting and your wet in wet is so effective, I'm only just getting brave enough to have a proper go at that.
I look forward to seeing your waterfall picture finished
art bit - well after the banana debacle
here is a couple of things to make up for missing yesterday
no 1, just a quick pencil sketch of a hanging basket I did whilst we waited for takeaway coffee to brew
and no 2 - back to waves, this is after a photo I saw online, (I think it was of the black lava cliffs of Hawaii ). done with the white nights and a touch of white gel pen
