pulling weeds early friday morning, before the rains set in and i'd be constrained to indoors studio work, i didn't mistake the piercing noise meandering from behind the shed for sheep's bleating.
·
they come visit every spring. some ten days is all them three need to munch the grass right back on the other side of our bottom-of-the-garden-creek.
·
·
sunday last was a blast: patrice drove all the way down from holland! and would you know the rain held up and we strolled through town, through sunday streets, through the house here, and through thoughts, cherished and shared, by more than just the two of us.
·
·
demie drank tea with us, and all of you drawing challengers were present too. why, thank you, all!
·
needless to say we did go and fillip on! stefanie had me puzzled at first, {and is hosting many more fillips!}.
·
i had a
grand ol' time
with the wax
crayons....
... splashed some
post war
'black-out'
about,
and voila!

ReplyDeleteOh yeah, two thumbs up on this one art friend. Indeed! Keep calm and fillip on. And of course with the wolfie on top. Brilliant. I loved hearing about your visit with Patrice, and yes, I can imagine we were in your thoughts. *hugs* Norma, x
ReplyDeletep.s. it is amazing how sheep can take care of a swath of grass (and hanging branches, and gardens, and flowers, and, and, and ...)
oh you genius girl! love the blackout poster! and of course the sheep. i'm still puzzled myself about the "fillip"..........?
ReplyDeletetook me long enough, but i got here in the end! hopefully life is settling down a bit. xoxo!
Oh, you got me right from the beginning with those cuddly sheep...mäh!
ReplyDeleteAnd finishing up with such a wonderful waxing surprise! So long ago I worked with that technique. It was some underwater world, this is what I still remember.
Great entertainment as always, my dear!
Ha! what a cool post and visit from friends and sheep :)you and Patrice had a thing this time round ;) and that technique is so fun and looks great!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kristen: What a cool post. I love your sense of humor and of course these sheeps!
ReplyDeleteLove + hugs
