To warm up a stormy day I give you some of my fabulously bright tiles, cooling on the workbench. Including top-Orchid Kaleidoscope, right-Pink Persian, left Plum Bee and Gothic Butterfly. 🧡🩷💛🩷🖤 meikie-designs.myshopify.com/collections/... #interiordesign #bohostyle #patternedtiles #colourfultiles
Painted in honour of the trees that hold onto their leaves till they turn deep russet despite the storms, before bowing to winters chill.

Good morning. Yesterday I was treated to this view across the South Downs. Love to see the graduated softer shades looking towards the horizon. When the world goes mad, nature is the only tonic.

Good morning. Sparkling sunlight through trees & leaves is always going to be one of my favourite things. Much needed to keep our spirits up. May your day be filled with little pieces of joy such as this.

Good morning &happy #thicktrunktuesday. Trees in the garden are nearly all bare now. For the next four months I will be enjoying the sunlight through branches.
Hugs all round, as if I need one I’m sure we all do.

In the studio late last night after playing with acrylics all day, put this in a frame to see how it looked. It’s not the right colour frame obviously. I think black will be the right colour. Anyway, it was fun to experiment.

Good morning. Sun came out yesterday after all that rain. Bear got his nice long walk with his little chihuahua friend Coco. Just the tonic needed.
Wishing you all a great week 😘

Rain x 1million ☹️. Was hoping to take Bear on a long walk. It’s had to be short ones for many days and he deserves a lovely long one.

I’ve been up my Apple tree climbing about picking apples. I’m 56 and very glad I’m still agile enough to do so. However I have 4 bags of apples to process. There’s about another 3 up there…. The birds can have those 😂

As promised a very long time ago I’m painting a smaller daffodils piece….
I can hardly move for multiple layers I’m wearing.
Who’s planted their bulbs ready for spring?

Current status. Heater as close to me as it can get while I paint.
In my defence I have rubbish circulation if sitting so get cold quickly.
