An abstract coloured pencil drawing of organic shapes in different shades of cool green blue and purple.

I have been struggeling to be creative, experiencing a bit of #artblock. I think I was very much too in my head about the art I make and what I want it to say so I'm so happy I managed to let go and just enjoy colour with this one.

Picture of an oak tree in a cool green valley bright alight with golden colours in the last sunlight

The oak tree in the valley, seconds before the sun is gone looks absolutely glorious.

A small siamese cat with bright blue eyes seated on a blue table in front of a fall garden in golden sunlight

Hermann is enjoying the autumn morning sun very much, and I think it suits him :)

My little piece of fall colours visible from my porch where I am sat tucked in a blanket with a big mug of tea and a book, being sick.

Ive been meaning to do that too! Thanks for the nudge in the right direction. ✨️

Mags aber schon sehr gern :)

A coloured pencil drawing of a landscape at dusk with a bird of prey in the foreground and a small dog illuminated by streetlights in the corner. There is an ornamental border around it.

Another piece of the same drawing depicting a fox and a house, a city in the distance

My very big coloured pencil panorama drawing of the wildlife in my home hills is finally about done! I'll need to take a pic of the whole wide thing next.

Yeah I can see that :)

Aw thanks!

A photo of me dressed in loose black clothing standing in a room under construction, beams and earthen wall exposed. I am holding a blue sketchbook and my cat is standing on a table beside me, climbing up my arm to seemingly look at what I am drawing.

Hermann, my assistant cat and I did a first little sketch in my new workspace yesterday. (The beams and wall behind us are 250 years old!)

Aw man what even is your life I am so jealous. Not just the very cute riding thing straight out of a storybook, also these buildings? And that background view of mountains?

A drawing of four different kinds of dahlias, all shades of red and pink in a vase. There is a big pear on the table too.

A gift that made me furious while making it - Claudias Dahlia for her Birthday.

Photo of a wild chaotic garden with all kinds of shapes and colours of leaves. A big sunflower growing in the middle of it all

Another bed in the garden and the pink morning sky in the background

My garden looking all moody in the first morning light, a fresh fall chill in the air making me come alive.

Hi there, I'm Elli - I make #nature and #wildlife art, often with a folkloric twist. ✨️
I also share photos of nature around me and my #permaculture vegetable and wildflower garden.

Photo of a group of people around a bonfire, illuminated by warm light.

Photo of a big tree framed by bushes illuminated with red fire light

Cosy fall bonfire season is upon us 🍂 I took a couple of photos in night mode that turned out pretty interesting imo. Might reference them for future paintings too :) #photography #nature #fall #autumn #cosy #naturephotography #spooky #witchy #natureart

Oh wow that looks very interesting so far! Excited to see what it will look like in the end :)

Aw thanks!

A big bunch of bright yellow sunflowers in a green glass vase on my messy blue garden table

A sketchbook opened to a double page depicting the sunflowers in their green vase drawn in coloured pencils. It is a rough sketch so far.

Loosely working on these magnificient sunflowers from my garden to focus on something simple :)

Picture of a bright yellow and orange evening sky with a bird flying in it, black against the light

The sky is giving me life these days!
I am having a horrible time, I keep waking at night hearing planes that started flying over my area more frequently lately so quiet moments like this are healing 🥲

A crazy pink mass of clouds at sun down over green hills

More evening light over green hills, this time peach and orange

Dark blue clouds, a soft lemon sky and bright red light of the dusk sun.

More lemon sky and bright deep red sunrays

I went on my little #mentalhealth walk today feeling all low and hopeless and this felt like a gift.
