My back went out but I stayed in and painted an onion from the drawer. I think I stopped just as I was starting to overwork it.

I just bought groceries at Loblaws in Toronto. I'm actively searching for produce not grown in the USA and was surprised at how many signs don't reference the country they're from. I asked the clerk and was told they've been instructed to remove any signs that reference the USA. Can anyone confirm?

Today's exercise is clouds. Inspired by the amazing landscapes of Catherine Cole.
I'll keep trying.

Watercolour and gouache painting of "Autumn Leaves in a Brass Vase". Based on a photograph I took last year. Shiny metal is a challenge to paint.

Best yorkshire pudding ever! Missed pouring the onion gravy before I took the picture. Toad in the Hole but I cooked the sausage in the airfryer.

My brother in law from Western Canada sent me a picture of the mouse they caught in the house. He then released it in a park.
I don't think he named it though.
I thought it would make a nice watercolour.
