I used saturation gold on this vase. It did not turn out as well on the later ones.
Sorry to hear about your health problems. Gallbladder - not nice! I hope you improve soon!
(Long covid here so exhaustion on daily basis - no claying, a bit of glazing)

Oil painting in progress. Scottish beach looking towards the isles. It's a small canvas and part of a set of 3 which I hope to finish some time soon.

It's been quiet here since it appears we have long Covid and this exhaustion is debilitating. 2 seizures in 2 days is a bit too much...
I'm taking a break from screens for a while. (promise me to behave while I'm gone!)

Our resident #FestiveDailyRobin is turning out to be quite the bully! When the bird feeders are out, he's the first at it and if I don't fill his own tray quickly enough, he's loud as can be.
Amazing how much character birds can express

I've been told I am really rubbish at self promotion and I have to admit, I am. I'm working on it. So please have a look at my goodies available from the British Craft House 😍

For Rob's #BirdOfTheDay in the #worst category,
one of our resident doves may apply.
Got ready to take the shot when he turned around...
Not the part I wanted! 🤣

For Rob's #BirdOfTheDay in the #underrated category,
I picked this female blackbird. They are such a part of my morning ritual with their loud songs, waking up the others in the neighbourhood and telling everyone about their dreams!

Good morning :)
Took a double take on this picture as it looked so much like the ruin of Duntulm castle on the Isle of Skye - such similar landscape too! Don't have the proper side view.. but you'll find it on Google maps :)

This is one of my po-jama dog hangings to fit the theme of today :)

For the #ColorADay I chose this #BWFri picture of a Caledonian Pine, one of my favourite trees. Not sure why I like them so much. Maybe it's their interesting shapes or because they descend from such ancient trees, the first after the late glacial period.

For the #ColorADay #YellowThu I chose this prickly bush called Gorse (Ulex europaeus) which grows here in abundance between January and June. It provides shelter to birds and is beneficial to bees.
We have bright yellow ochre walls in the house which lift the mood when it's raining again☺️

This one is from the archives. This was the last pencil drawing I made and had to abandon due to continuous pain in my wrist.
I called him Peanut, after a sweet little pup we once met on our travels through Northumberland.

or today’s #BirdOfTheDay #sunlit , I got you this sweet home robin. We have 2 resident robins who regularly nest in the utility rack in front of our house. They make the most lovely tiny nests.
They're also very loud when they're no food in the feeder as if to say "Hey, where's my breakfast?" 🤣

I have no idea when mug shapes for certain types of coffee became a thing, but this is apparently a Latte mug ☺️
And it's green, so perfect for #ColorADay #GreenSat
and obviously also for any #coffeelovers out there!
😎Have a great weekend!
