I’m joining in with What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, kindly curated by Sarah’s Craft Shed. Take a look and join in!
My workdesk is from my summer art class. Thank you all for encouraging me to finish my collage and watercolour sea cave after a Sara Adams painting.
I’m much happier with it now.
Here as well are all our watercolour koi carp from the last class of my summer watercolour workshops
And here’s my desk of today. I’ve been lusting after beautiful handmade watercolours from A. Gallo, a small Italian company that makes gorgeous and non-toxic watercolours.
They were in a sale so I snapped them up.
Even the wrapping is gorgeous.
This is such a treat after last week’s upheavals. We needed new front windows and had to move lots of things out of the way in the front room. The company was excellent and installed them in 3 hours, but then we had to put everything back.
It was a bit stressful but Bella has got over it and sends you all purrs.
My squares and rectangles of c2c crochet are slowly growing. They were going to be slipover for Brian but the shape may lend itself better to a kimono-style cardigan.

Oooh, those paints are fab! I saw a YouTube documentary about A Gallo, which was fascinating. I know you’ll enjoy using those xx. Great job with the windows but it disrupts everything so I have sympathy with Bella! Rhys has ordered a new bed so we decided to decorate before it came, everything had to come out of his room!!
It was great to see all the Koi pics lined up, everyone obviously had fun.

Wow the koi pictures are just wonderful. We had probably 85% or our windows done (just not the ones in the little added rooms off the back) and it was...traumatic LOL! So much mess and disruption for days and days. But the house is so much easier to control temperature wise and so QUIET, it was worth it. If Bella is like Poppy, she is just flopping about in the heat. Poppy loves the cool old tiles downstairs or leaning up against a bookshelf (? is it cooler? maybe) in my studio. Funny kitty...
Happy WOYWW!

I can finally comment. Have had to change browser. What gorgeous looking paints Lynne. Loving the full spread of watercolours too. Glad Bella and you weren't too put out with the window change. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
The sea looks fab! (Thanks for the email) as do the koi pictures.
It's not long ago that we had all of our windows and doors done but what a difference it has made so all the cleaning and moving of furniture will be well worth it in the winter months to come especially.
Have a good week and tickles to Bella
Hugs, Neet 1 xx
Oh how funny is that coffe filter one! I love how different all the koi carp pictures are and I could pick yours out of the bunch. Your cave painting has turned out so well too - you should be really proud. Have a wonderful week, Lisa-Jane #10, www.prettymypage.co.uk
