Mix, Mash...

Sadly will have to be the last for a wee while as I must curtail my time spent online. Painting must come first and I have to get back into a studio routine if I'm going to get any work done. The internet is an amazing tool, but it's so easy to get carried away looking at all the wonderful images and artwork by others. Perhaps it's an age thing as well. My multi tasking skills are sadly dwindling and I find it hard to concentrate on one thing let alone three or four...smile!

So Adieu for now but as Arnie says "I'll Be Back"....

On my walk...

The day started again with a heavy fog and I was desperate to get out on my walk before it lifted. But, as Rabbie says " the best laid plans o' mice an men gang aft a gley". There was certainly a haze but I was after spiders webs dripping with faerie diamonds. There will be other days no doubt and it was still a glorious walk indeed...

"Then Summer fades and passes, and October comes, will smell smoke then, and feel an unsuspected sharpness, a thrill of nervous, swift elation, a sense of sadness and departure. ~ Thomas Wolfe

Darling, Starlings...

Very vocal and pretty messy but ever so pretty :)

From the Garden...

I up-cycled the top of the old bird station that collapsed in a heap during a windy day, as being a 'magpie' I couldn't bear to throw it out. Looking for little solar lanterns to hang on it :) 

This lavendar has gone on and on, the bees love it, even now when its getting tatty.
