World leading and after no deal green banana suppliers will prosper mightily - just no from me.
Thanks @Muddy Cyclist it’s a technique used by some Chinese artists which allows ink to find it’s own way in a semi-controlled manner.Well that technique worked brilliantly, I have never thought of trying that with inks, two very nice landscapes.
Quick art from me today Plein Air on our walka bit of a splodge trying to capture Autumn grass and ferns reflected in water, about 10 minutes as family didn't want to hang around, I had to catch them upI can still run if I have to.
So here it is a watercolour splodge.... I will use the idea in a foreground of an Autumn painting...

I used to absolutely love buttered crumpets. I also liked them with jam.5.4 this morning which is very strange as I had a... buttered crumpet before retiring for the night.
good afternoon all
4.1 yesterday and 4.5 today
the list of posts to read builds up quickly
spending today sorting out shoes (I'm not quite Imelda Marcos but I do have a 'few' pairs)
Hope your day is treating you kindly
@SlimLizzy - poor cat, Katy hates being restrained for travelling too
@ianpspurs - with reference to 'transit' issues, I personally don't find extra fibre is extra helpful, what is helpful to me is a very small quantity of andrew's liver salts before bed, usually helps the next morning, interestingly it's a magnesium salt so perhaps that's what's helpful.
@dunelm - lovely chrysanthemum, those petals are not easy to get right in one stroke and your 2 works today are interesting, I like how the ink/water interaction has created new textures.
The 'jetty' is actually a long, thin, low lying landspit, it only stands out like that in the distance when the mist is behind it, there are now a couple of houses out there and what used to be a mussel fishing station where the original ferry house used to be.
@lindisfel - lots of peat country up here too, lovely autumn colours.
@Alien Aspie - interesting textures in that piece of art and a subject after my own heart
@JohnEGreen - interesting photos as usual
@gennepher - hugs for your 'wobble', it's not pleasant the way they can suddenly appear. Winner for your art though, it's a hopeful glimps of light ahead
Your mystical moon is compelling, also a bit spooky, it looks like there is a pair of glowing eyes in the edge of the darkness, not threatening but just a bit watchful
@Muddy Cyclist - hugs for the loss of your auntie, I feel so lucky we're mum's support so at least we get to see her every few days.
Your Rannoch Moor is lovely, I especially like the masterly use you have made of that subtle palette. and your 'plein air' is a joyous burst of colour, I look forward to your 'autumn' works
art bit - still playing catch up and need to get the scanner out
this is the waterfall I mentioned having a go at painting previously, this was done from a photo found on the internet.

We called them Pikelets in Lincoln and toasted them on an open fire with a wire toasting fork then filled all the holes with melting butter. One was never enough!Looked up Crumpets in Carbs and Cals Counter.View attachment 44693View attachment 44694
Used to love crumpets, but always regarded them as an excuse to have that much maligned product- BUTTER. Lots of it. Sometimes would melt a slice of mature cheddar over the top of the butter. Fatbomb. Ofc at the time this was regarded as unhealthy.

Only because the round crumpets are smaller.So a round crumpet has less carbs than a square crumpet...
One crumpet never used to be enough...
I love melted cheese on top...

Do you know I thought only the posh had crumpets, us working class had pikelets.This debate was had last year I think. I grew up in the Midlands and we had pikelets and crumpets, two different things and woe betide you if you got them mixed up when your mom sent you to the bakers
