The days flash by
Rushing past
Flying by
Moving so fast
Day and night
Are gone
in no time
Zooming
Into another meeting!
Another day, another zoom
Cluttered desk
#bandofsketchers prompt. My cluttered desk, there’s a keyboard for the computer under there somewhere. Used slightly more muted colours. I’ve definitely got too much ‘stuff’ in my life!
Flood filled
A digital drawing that I used texture and flood fill on. I feel like the result is somehow alien, maybe some sort of spiritual feeling. Maybe it’s the colours that seem like stained glass. The purple coming down the nose reminds me of a helmet with light shining on it. The front of the body could be interpreted as a chest plate or armour.
When you are adding texture it’s interesting to decide when to stop. The same with the flood fill. Too much or not enough? I think you learn as you go along what sort of image you want.
Hubby drawing
He’s still colouring in the book although it’s 2.30am. So I did a very quick sketch of him drawing (five minutes). He’s got his own style. But that doesn’t matter. It’s the fact that he’s doing it which is good. It gives him focus and flow. It’s great to see him doing it.
I just watched a programme about the life of the artist Bob Ross and how he taught art in America in the 1980’s & 1990’s. He sadly died at a young age.
Art is sometimes therapy. It is a good thing. I would encourage people to take it up.
Full…
My WordPress is getting too full of images again. I try and put a new photo or art on each page, but when my media is around 86% full it won’t allow me to upload new images. So unfortunately I’m going to have to delete pictures to make more room. I will delete them from the older pages. It will probably mean that the page and writing will still be there, but the image might be missing. Sorry if this is a problem. I might try and increase my package with WordPress but that will cost me money. I don’t want to clutter my blog up with ads either. We will see what happens.

Looking up
Looking up I see a grey orange sky. That grey that foretells either snow or fog. Mist wraps round trees, swirls of cold wet air netting the world in damp chills. How many spiders webs are covered in dew? Frost builds and creaks, snapping and wilting late flowers. Will it snow? Will the World be silenced? Snuffed under white goose down…. And will it happen before Christmas?
Asleep
Nose down
Whiskers twitch
Paws paddle
Snore
Asleep
Put a paw
Over your nose
Chase mice or birds
Toys or string
Wake up refreshed
Having slept
Time to race
And chase……
Pens all over the floor!
What happens when your hubby decides to get an adult colouring book… I don’t mind, but does everything have to get spread over the floor? Also I wish he would get his own. I use these for my art course. I asked him how he thought I would feel if he’d tipped all my oil paints lying all over the floor!
Swimming
Our senior school was amalgamated with another one and so they decided to to rebuild science and craft blocks and a sports block with a swimming pool! The great thing was that we got to do life saving skills as well as learning to canoe!
That was the time years ago when governments spent money on schools and education…. And it was good because children who couldn’t afford it got to learn to swim. I wish that austerity hadn’t cur so many services now.
Old tech
Just found these at the back of a bookcase, I don’t know the last time I used them or what’s on them. I do know the pc doesn’t have a slot for floppy discs anymore! What else will turn up on my bookcases? It’s part of history now!
Long time since I heard the dulcet tones of a modem too!
