good evening all
4.1 this morning
I expected worse after the haggis
T2D is a constant mystery puzzle.
Feels cold today and we had snow this morning although not too heavy a shower. We got a phone call to pick up mr gee's repaired specs. this morning so he is quite cheered. Especially so since the assistant who does the ordering had discovered it was only a little more expensive to buy a whole frame than it was to buy the bit to do the repair so she took an executive decision and went ahead so he now has his lenses in a new frame
On the down side we discovered that we can only make an appointment by phone
Lovely but cold village walk today, sweeping clouds and snow on the far hills in the sunshine.
Hope your day is treating you well
@ianpspurs - ooh that looks good, I've still got a big supply of dark dark chocolate to get through first though
@gennepher - hope you enjoyed the warmth, I was tempted I'll admit
that's a very large brush to be splashing ink with
an impressive pared down waterfall and lovely plum blossom in your painting today
@dunelm - hope Mum's op. went well and recovery is smooth
I like your tree today very much, the bark texture is especially well rendered
@Muddy Cyclist - Two good plein air sketches I especially like the second one. A spring beech avenue sounds like it will make an interesting painting, if a bit detailed
(and a bit daunting to me, I'm inclined to fiddle with detail
)
art bit -
having another go with the resist, tying to get a handle on using it and not destroying the paper surface
