Grove

Grove
I live in a grove of pink skies and trees, with poppies growing there in soft, warm light.

Spring

It won't be long before spring
Has all the creative juices running
And walking along the lanes
Stimulates a joy of everything

on my desk today






On my desk today: a stitched piece using the same bird stamp as previously
and
some wonderful books I have yet to read.









This book is one I shall alter in some way.
It was a child's board book with portholes.





I have been playing around with the portholes, not
sure yet how to proceed.

I will link to WOYWW and say thank you to Julia for
hosting this weekly event!

An Ice Breaker


Another corner of a painting I did in an earlier post. 

It looks to me like a ship breaking ice in the Arctic.

It was a blue painting which has been manipulated in a basic picture managing programme.
The bird, also of an earlier post, is looking on!

I will link up to Creative Every Day and thank Leah for hosting it!

A Digital Sketch





 


This little sketch was done with Brushes App.

I didn't know what I wanted to sketch, I was really just playing.


TWO PINK ROSES....this could be an appropriate title.

Paint and collage







This morning I painted a canvas with acrylic paint hoping for a coastal scene.

It didn't quite turn out as planned.

So then I added collage and a stamped bird. 

This is one small section of my canvas. 

I would like to join in with Paint Party Friday.

See you there.

Bird's nest and washi tape




The bird collage of the previous post is now made into a card or wall hanging.

I hope to link this to The Shabby Tea Room Challenge blog.

It is quite 'shabby' in style and as I have added faux,
(home made) washi tape, it hopefully meets the challenge.
The only splash of colour is the pale pink button of
the hanging mechanism.

A Nest



With the stamp set from yesterday's post,
I have made a nest.



















I created this on top of an old envelope and used the wood shavings.

Trying to make this less flat I have raised the bird up a bit and photographed
it from various angles.

The background stamp and the bird are by Paper Artsy.

I will link to Creative Every Day.
