The Autumn leaves are stunning @dunelm

The top one with mountains and trees is brilliant!

Take care of your ankle.

It is windy outside with tremendous sudden gusts whirling everything around....

Back later with a painting....
 
This, quoted in The Telegraph, is frightening but blindingly obvious due to the laughable "jobs miracle" of the past decade and this govts ridiculous desire to turn England into a giant Bunga Bunga party. distraction. Many of these young women have been saddled with huge debts having gained a degree only to end up in a Mcjob/zhc:
He (Prof Semple) also said there were "many more cases particularly in younger females between the ages of 20 and 40".
Prof Semple said there were three to four times as many women in the age group coming into hospital as men, because they are exposed in hospitality, retail and some educational settings.

I really like this thread. It’s lovely to have little snapshots of life - other peoples lives, when you’re stuck in the house on your own! - It comes to something when you start missing the intellectual stimulation of a room full of seven year olds with trumpets!
I love the paintings!! Feeling a bit guilty though. My own painting stuff got shoved into a corner to make way for a silversmithing workshop. The half finished painting on the easel is sulking in the corner!
Here are a couple of old ones. I’ll see if I can guilt trip myself into finishing something new to post. - Really, thank you brightening my day!
 
Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen. I appreciate the talents of the artists that post their efforts on this thread, but today I feel that fellow motorcyclist @dunelm deserves a special mention for today's effort, me and me's like the use of colour and from the sounds of things his foot also provided a colour pallet, get well soon.

A young fresh faced 5.3 this morning.

Here in the wilds of Berkshire, it could soon be the time to open my order books for the manufacture of boats, canoes and arks.

Stay dry, stay safe and stay well.
 
Welcome @SilverK and what an addition to the art gallery. Stick around please.
 
Welcome and thank you for sharing some very fine works of art, look forward to seeing something new from you.
 
Thanks @Muddy Cyclist - Hopalong Cassidy has nothing on me right now.
Two quite different styles of Chinese painting but did enjoy adding a bit of autumnal flavour

Thank you @gennepher - I do like the Chinese styles with landscapes but enjoyed doing the autumn leaves. Ankle reports that it is fasting so I expect a bit slimming soon - then I can put my slipper back on

The leaves are gorgeous. Looks like the Acer in my garden - before this mornings wind blew the last of the leaves off!
I love the Chinese style. Such a light touch.
 

Welcome @SilverK and thank you for sharing some of your excellent art. Look forward to seeing more.

Some brilliant pieces of work!
Welcome to the thread @SilverK
 
Must be our Aldi as we are constantly disappointed with the quality, we and my daughter stopped shopping there. My son swears by them but shops in Uttoxeter. I think Aldi stores vary from location to location yours is obviously good.
That's really interesting. I hadn't realised that stores very from location to location. So pleased that we have a good store here.
 
Then it all just stopped. And went to expensive full breakfasts and you still had to buy your teas and coffee on top of that.

Like you i fell out with a lot of places after that
It actually felt that they didn't appreciate their loyal customers.and it did make me really really cross. I wonder how many customers they lost because of it.
 
Have a good weekend everyone.
Eldest daughter recovering very fast from covid.
She is Zooming us today and has already been out walking and done 2 miles, she is a very strong person mentally and determined to get working again soon.
D.
Your eldest daughter is making such a good recovery from covid. You must be so pleased.
 
Thank you for posting your paintings. They are brilliant.
