There is great drying out





This weather this week. Mornings of blue skies and sunshine and early walks, hanging clothes out to dry - fresh breezes no rain. Evening walks also with the lengthening days, busy birds, robins hopping a bit closer each day, bringing the washing in, carrying scents of sun and wind.

So delicate and beautiful, many many stitches like lots of little brush strokes. Thank you L!

  1. So, so beautiful! Change the robins to cardinals and our days sound about the same!
    Have a great weekend.

    1. Thank you Tracey, what's that old saying about the personal being universal ;)
      (I had to look up what cardinals were...what an exotic looking bird!)

  2. This is such a lovely painting and I love how you describe the days where you are - you paint a pretty "mind's eye" picture too.

    p.s. My beautiful Night Owls print arrived this week! I am excited to frame it and show it off in my home :)
