Wip Cat in stone corner

I've been working a lot lately on this little kitty, with pastels from Rembrand on canson Mi grey paper. I liked to try the rough side of the paper for once and I'm amazed by the outcome. The background needs working on same as the kitty isn;t yet completely finished. But I have much fun doing this.

Visions

Tried painting with artisan oil paint on water basic, in a technique from Bob Tomanovic. It was a veru nice way to paint in an abstract way while learning how.
Ik heb dit schilderij met olieverf op waterbasis geschilderd volgens een techniek van Bob Tomanovic. het was heel erg leuk om abstract te schilderen en toch te weten dat er een manier was om dit te doen.

Moments out of Maggy's day

This is me, I'm the dog in this house, hmm.. well little dog then...
I like to play a lot with all my favourite toys, this is one of them: "snake" I like to hold him in my mouth, see?
And sometimes I just like lazy on the chair, but since I'm very curious I squeeze myself between the chair and my boss' leg. A dog needs to stay on top of everything!

Scary the scarescrow, tries so very much to be scary, but all he achieves is the crows laughing at him and stealing his straws....

Lit my candle

I love this season when the leaves are colouring on the trees, when they fall down on the soil, when nature is rich of colours and fruits, and wind makes the leaves twirl around. If weather starts to change we shelter in our homes and we start to lit candles, how lovely this is.. our senses being enriched on all different layers. This is why I started a new project to create nature's mystery inside our home.
I made it all of clay, acryl paint and different kinds of antique- pastes.
Hoe leuk is de herfst als buiten de blaadjes kleuren aan de bomen, de natuur een verscheidenheid aan fruit, noten en geuren te bieden heeft? Heerlijk vind ik het om te wandelen terwijl de wind de blaadjes om me heen blaast. En als het dan echt te guur weer wordt dan is het lekker om binnen de kaarsjes aan te steken. Tijd om met nieuwe projectjes te beginnen... zoals deze boom, opgebouwd uit aluminiumfolie, crepe- tape, klei, acryl- verf en antique- pasta.
Leuk gezicht hoor als zijn kaarsje wordt aangestoken 's avonds!
