…. hurray … i finished them … and other goodies

no. i wont write much today. let the pics do the talking. first … my knitting… am i boring you? i hope not. my knitting is important to me… as i said… it gives me inner balance, harmony, i feel grounded and connected with God … and no that is not funny. it is a reality and true… i knit to be more in contact, aligned, open to God … spiritual knitting ?? ach yes… works for me.. might not for you … i dunno.

so knitting is one part – an important one cause.. i have people ORDERING SOCKS from me. you can do that too ya knows ? contact me through my contact page here and i will let you know how to go about it 🙂 but this is about knitting. now we talk art.. painting… mixmedia. it is not quite finished… some things are missing so i will not yet post it here. perhaps later. it does have two main figures in it… and for once.. no fish. the fish will still turn up, i am sure. ok. those figures are a chimera and a lion… wow. no idea what that is all about but it intrigues me… so i will roll my wheelchair to my working place, where i am crowded and barely have enough room.. but that is where i paint. oh goodness i am looking forward to moving the flat around. different story 🙂

so here are some of my knitting pics… enjoy. and remember… yeah.. right 🙂

… woosh.. first it’s here and now it’s gone .. almost

i don’t think i ever sold anything so quickly as my little blue donkey today … 🙂 i must admit.. this is of course a GREAT boost to my ego.. and this buyer really and truly made my day… so a big thank you goes her way.
actually my little blue donkey was supposed to be a cow.. but that’s not how it worked out.. obviously. i started off with the head and.. no.. this didn’t look like the head of a cow.. so i just continued et voilà … my little blue donkey appeared. and i had barely uploaded it to my facebook account… and then it was sold. just like that .. whoosh……. but… thanks to modern technology… my little blue donkey is still available… not the original painting… but in printform.. on varoius materials and products… if you like LITTLE BLUE DONKEY .. just check out my account on FineartAmerica or RedBubble or Society6 .

so.. the muse has taken me in a completely different direction again.. at least the colour scheme is sort of the same .. i need to keep busy.. it keeps me awake. my chemotherapy makes me extremely tired.. the moment i sit comfortably, i doze off and soon glide into a deep and sound sleep… not really my idea of spending the day.. and mind you.. i sleep like a log at night too… so.. instead of sitting comfortably in a chair or on my red sofa… i paint.. i let the muse guide me to new realms… art and my journey being a constant adventure !!

much love and light to you all !!!

it’s done…

tulip’s queendom … from watercolours back to mixed media

Tulip’s Queendom .. surrounded by her admirers and underlings, queen tulip stands in a field.. how did she get there? who knows.. perhaps an animal dropped a bulb in the middle of this flower field.. and now she grows there, different, admired, envied, in a sea of field flowers.

the original mixed-media painting is 14×19.5 centimeters big and can be purchased on ARTFINDER  .. prints are available in my various online stores, please check out my Buy my Art page … if you have questions.. please do not hesitate to contact me !

Penelope Fish and Scarecrow .. uploaded and sold !

PENELOPE FISH …. and SCARECROW

isn’t it wonderful… these two paintings i uploaded to my facebook page.. and they sold within two hours. i am so grateful and happy 🙂 what more can an artist want than this kind of reaction to her/his art? 🙂

penelope is painted on cardboard… scarecrow on heavy watercolour paper. both are mixed media… penelope has collage elements, plus acrylics, acrylic ink and india ink. scarecrow has some acrylics, watercolour pastels and inktense pencil and a touch of acrylic ink. both of them got a finish..  a kind of varnish that prevents smudging, fading of colours and damage by humidity … if any of you would like to connect on Facebook .. just click on this LINK please ..

have a great day !

Stickman Selfie – in case you wonder what i look like :)

today i took part in a kind of challenge… drawing a stickman selfie, showing me doing what i like doing best… which is – of course – art 🙂

it was fun.. and i hope it puts a smile on your face too. my hair….. hahaha.. my hair ? …  typical after-chemo hairstyle…… LOL 🙂 and the glasses.. only when i do art.. or read 😉 nothing against glasses of course.. but i usually don’t look that intellectual 😀 😀 😀 happy tuesday to you !

experimenting with an experiment – the outcome: Circles

experimenting with an experiment – the outcome: Circles

i got some new acrylic inks last week and been experimenting with them. not unhappy with them but they are different to the ones i have used so far – and which are almost impossible to obtain here! anyway.. so been playing around with those inks, then took a photo with my mobile phone.. which in turn led me to play around with the image in my editing program .. et voilà … Circles happened.  i rather liked the outcome so .. prints, poster, cards and a variety of products are available in my various shops >>> RedBubble – Society6 – FineArtAmerica
