WOYWW 859 Art and dark age Kent.

Hi all, sending big hugs from us and purrs from Bella to Neet, hoping you get better soon. 
Here’s my art class desk from last week. You can’t really see my drawing but I’m having trouble getting the size of the squirrel’s head right. 

And here are all our autumn vegetables from 2 weeks ago. 
There are some beautiful paintings

Sadly, as I got home, my art bag (A2 size) got stuck in our kitchen door and I damaged my shoulder, pulling it free.  It’s been quite a saga going from a broken or torn shoulder cuff diagnosis to the cuff muscles being pinched between bones.  I’ve had a steroid jab to reduce the inflammation ,and am on Dihydrocodeine which is infinitely better than nasty sickness-inducing Tramadol. 
I’ve managed to do a bit more crochet, with Bella’s help, just more blanket strippery.

A local friend took this brilliant photo of Hengist and Horsa’s white horse. It’s tricky to get a good angle as it’s behind the Eurotunnel terminal. I’d like to paint that one day, it’s more like the spirit of a wild horse, than the groomed one that’s the emblem of Kent. 

Here’s more about Hengist and Horsa, as I’m not sure they feature in dark age history much beyond Kent. 
Bella sends purrs to you all, in an ‘elegant’pose on my first chevron blanket. 😻

And finally …






I’ll be around this morning to visit as I can’t go to art class 
Happy WOYWW
Hugs
