Gruselig... gleichzeitig faszinierend - trotzdem fällt mir ein "...da lob ich mir ein Stück Musik von Hand gemacht, noch von einem Menschen mit nem richt'gen Kopf erdacht...".
Ich hoffe, der Wert der Künste bemisst sich irgendwann nach dem gezogenen Stecker... mein Grusel überwiegt...

Autumn...

Looks great!

Love this one! Just re-liking your posts I already new from IG. Great you are here 😊... if I remember right I commented on this one that I always learn some new vocabulary in your posts to add to my English (here it was 'codgers' 😅)

Lovely zoom sketchalong yesterday evening with Stepanie Bower.... I love the fastness and the flow of these sketchalongs. Also when I have not much creative energy in daily life. This keeps me on track.
Barcelona, Gothic Quarter.

Sehr cool!!!!

And I didn't mention: we are in full spring here. 23°C yesterday and all is in full bloom. I already had wild garlic in March... and the beautiful magnolia is just around the corner...

Thank you 😊... it was the autumn before the pandemic... and I thought I would paint botanicals🤣... it showed I'm more the landscape painter and cityscape sketcher...

Sketch of our local theater... Grillo Theatre Essen ... The last change of directorship involved the dismisaal of a large part of the excellent ensemble. The current woke productions do not meet my preferences anyway. Lovely building though....

We used to make macrame plant hangers in school... and owls 😊

Nothing helped. Now I would dispose of everything as soon as I noticed it. As bitter as that is.

We brought the gnats into the house with the soil. One package was infested, one was not. You could see exactly which balcony boxes were growing well and where nothing was growing. Later, I had the gnats in the apartment too.

I totally forgot to answer. I have had huge trouble with gnats (Sciaridae) the last 3 years. I tried all:
• change soil
• put matches in the soil
• yellow strips
• nematodes
• put soil in the oven
... nothing helped.You will never get rid of it if just one gnat survives. Just get rid of the soil.

After an accident at my dentist (🥴) and follow up visit at oral surgeon I wasn't able to talk but got my advent calendar yarn plied... to be wound and measured next...
I added appr a foot of white fibre between the colors while spinning and used bracelet plying to get a 2ply of all separate colors.

So cute ... lucky you having him helping you ☺️
