colours! finally!


good morning everybody!

it's a beautiful day. now. ten minutes ago the sky was all cloudy and it was cold enough for me to decide i'd wear a knitted jumper today. now the sun is shining and i am sitting on our deck in a t-shirt.
...this is auckland-weather.

a few days ago i bought some acrylic colours and spent $31,20 (!!!) on a "Artists Water Colour Pad" - because usually i use quite a lot of water - and then i painted for the first time in SIX MONTHS! this is the longest perios of time without using a brush since the last 4 oder 5 years of my life. (and you have to know that young as i fortunately am 4 or 5 years is AGES!)
of course i did my scribbling and sketching on every tiny piece of paper i could get, i couldn't live without that, but after a while it gets kind of depressing...

okay anyway, the result you see here.
and there is gonna be more.

p.s. wow now it's cloudy again. maybe i should just stay inside - it's too confusing to look at the sky.
