2019 099 Partly clouded, but sunny
Our friends left real early this morning and didn’t have the chance to witness how the weather should actually be this time of year. It’s such a pity their days here were mostly cloudy and sometimes even rainy. I am experimenting with ‘brushes’ in Procreate. Aren’t these clouds looking very real? Anyway the sun was … Read more

Yesterday evening we could witness quite a sight: the sun going down, turning everything into orange together with sea mist against the mountain wall and below on the ground. Beautiful!

The difficulty was that the text of the colours was different from the actual colour. I did name them correctly, but it took me … Read more
2019 093 Cuckoo, cuckoo…
I know that they behave awful to other birds, but I really like the sound a cuckoo is making. We have at least one in the woods behind the house!
2019 092 Looking for a Spanish symbol
It’s nice to make cards with wished for all kinds of occasions. This drawing is part of ‘Welcome to Spain’ wish. Friends are coming over and although flamenco is of course part of Andalusia I thought it was Spanish enough to use it on my wish. Or could I better have chosen a different symbol? … Read more
