Art on Friday

Gosh the last two days have been absolutely scorching!  Needless to say not a lot has been done in the garden.  I haven't gone for a walk either.  I was going to go this afternoon and then I remembered I was expecting my grocery delivery sometime between 2 pm and 10 pm and hadn't received a time (as don't often get a signal for the text to come through) and although it will probably arrive late this evening, I thought knowing my luck if I did go out for a walk, then it would arrive while I'm out!



I ordered an art book the other day to encourage me to get back into painting again.  I haven't got a book on how to paint leaves and flowers and saw this one, read the reviews and decided to get it. I am quite pleased with my rose picture, although not so much with the picture of the fern.

  1. Your art work is beautiful, I have 2 left hands when it comes to art.

  2. It’s a great book I think. I managed to get it on offer on Kindle for 99p but liked it so much I had to get the “Real Thing’”. It’s a case of getting in the habit for me. Love your practice pieces.

    1. I saw your pictures, and that was what helped encourage me. I have lost my confidence a bit in painting, for a variety of reasons, so it is good to get back into it.
