Looks like another beautiful birdy! We had some sunshine today and hoping for more tomorrow, a balmy 6 degrees C?

I too love rainy days. More than sunny ones actually. They always feel so cozy and I love to stay inside and work on projects or just read. ;) Jules

I wouldn't have thought watercolour could stand out so well on coloured paper.. I wouldn't survive this part of the year without matches :) We need a little light don't we..

It looks lovely against the brown background. :) It's sunny here in the UK, I hope some of it comes your way!

Is that a flicker? We get birds that look just like that in our yard up here in Seattle! One keeps pecking at the wood on the shed outside my bedroom window and I always think it's someone knocking at my door...

Hello from Berlin!
I made a little something out of your beautiful artwork ( something for a daily use) and I would like to send it to you.
Perhaps you could give me an address or a P.O. box...-I don't want to bother you..-I just would like to send you this (really) little something. Perhaps you would like it?!
Have a nice day.
And thank you for your blog & your artwork- every time I look at my sofa and see this little blue bird sitting there it's brightening my day!
Kind regards
Christine
