I’m so sorry I didn’t visit any blogs last week. I got back from art class to a call saying my aunt is ill in hospital, in Stoke. I spent all Wednesday and Thursday rushing round to organise things and stupidly put my knee out, turning at the bottom of the stairs. Our neighbours gave us a lift to Brian’s birthday do ( which we all enjoyed) and I then dosed myself up with painkillers and ice. I’ve been really groggy ever since. Finally, today, Tuesday, I’m starting to walk without my walking stick. I’ve done it before and it gets better with rest. Getting anywhere like hospital would have been so complicated now it’s only me who drives.
I’ll do better this week at blog visiting, when I get back from art class.
Here’s my desk at art class last week and some of our group’s bug paintings. We’re now doing a picture of a shirt.
This week we’re going on to painting, being very careful about gradations of colour. My shirt is an old, linen shirt I bought when Travelsmiths had a UK shop. I wish I’d bought more as it’s proven virtually indestructible.
Last week was just drawing and the review of our bugs. I’m pleased I received good comments on mine; they’re all excellent.
I’m thinking of a row of buttons coming down from the right shoulder and down a left-hand pocket with these pretty enamel buttons I bought from Amazon.
And finally…
Take care, all, and happy WOYWW!
Hugs
