Art Chat - May

A sheep made of string Stephie…that is BAAAAA king…lol…love it.
Beautiful work as always Kelly…but then I am biased…:wink:
I have just done another painting that will go in a mount.
The only problem with them is that they are much heavier to post…but I agree the mount adds a lot to them…and I have 50 mounts, so I had better get painting…lol

Brilliant string sheep Stephie, couldn’t see the detail on the FB picture, he’s fab!

Stunning purple poppies Hazel, they look very elegant

Brenda, your landscape in the mount looks gorgeous. It’s beautiful anyway, but the addtion of the mount makes it even lovelier

Matt, I didn’t see your bird print yesterday. love it.

Very colourful work Kelly.

I’m still not able to see Folksy forums at work for some reason, so can’t call in too often these days.

I’ve something to show you, I mentioned ages ago that Mum bought me an original landscape at an exhibition for my birthday. She bought it in February and it was kept under wraps till early May. It’s now hung on my wall over my computer and looks fab:) The flash spoils it slightly but you get the idea.

That is beautiful Margaret a lovely valley view for you to look at :slight_smile:

Thank you glad you like my poppies :slight_smile:

That’s gorgeous Margaret, is it an oil painting? Who’s the artist?

lovely poppies Hazel, that colour is delicious.

Matt your print is beautiful, it must take some patience and a steady hand to make your prints.

Lovely colourful painting Kelly. When do you go?

Hope I haven’t missed anyone…I’m on my phone where the forum is tricky to see and type at the same time!

I’m not entirely sure, it’s either oil or acrylic and it’s one of those that’s painted round the edges so doesn’t need framing. There’s quite a bit of texture to it. The artist is V Tomey from a fairly local art group, I fell in love with it on sight.

Good morning, that’s beautiful Maragaret I can see why you fell in love with it.

Fab work everyone, sorry didn’t get chance to come back yesterday, helping our son who has just been offered a rather exciting opportunity with work, he is off on a car rally for Help the Hero’s driving a landrover across Europe, such a fantastic opportunity and is going in a few weeks so had to sort insurances, health card etc.

I love the colour of those Poppies Hazel, just yummy

The string sheep is fab Stephie, I’ve still not thought of anything yet!

Morning all…bit colder here today…
Hazel those flowers are stunning…really lovely
Margaret, what a fabulous gift…it is really good…looks like oil but who knows?
Max, that sounds fantastic for your son.
Waving Stephie…hope the weather is nice up there.
Waving to everyone.

Waving everyone, I’m back from a not-quite-week in North Wales. Did you miss me? Haha :joy: it was lucky we had wifi as my mobile phone didn’t work for the entire time we were there.

I’m very impressed with how strong the Welsh language is on the Llyn Peninsula, the whole community is conducted in Welsh. The locals are very friendly though, and will often switch to English so that you don’t feel left out…not like in the 1980’s in the Rhyl area when it was very different story.

My shop is open again, and I have a blog post to write all about my postcards home - they were such fun to paint :smile:

Super work from everyone, I especially like Kelly’s white roses on that gorgeous colourful background.

Just written this blog post, A Watercolour Postcard Home

Your postcards are great Stephie - I have seen a few of them as you posted them on FB but all together in the blog they look even better.

Glad you had a nice break too :smile:

Thanks Hazel @HazelRayfield it was a lot of fun thinking of subjects for specific people. There were a couple that I couldn’t show on fb as the recipients follow my page.

lovely memory blog Stephie, I have left a comment for you :slight_smile: waving hi to everyone, tomorrow is my piece of string challenge I have a few ideas now to try :slight_smile:
