Red Sky At Night

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting the most delightful lady.
The artist who painted this.....

a small painting I treated myself to at my Pilates studio Christmas Fair.

Mixed media artwork. It's absolutely beautiful. Painted by Helen Kaminsky

I took a look at Helen's website, looking for something for my en-suite.

Helen had just added some new work, not only that she was on her way up North and agreed to bring a few pieces with her for me to choose from!

Here is what I chose....It is called Red Sky at Night

The more I look , the more I see. The colours are so vibrant (difficult to capture on film)

I have tried to photograph the silver and gold nets (fishing nets in the sea!)

 I love how Helen initials her paintings, wherever she can fit them!

So, thank you Helen, I absolutely love it and will treasure forever I'm sure.

Now not going in the en-suite, heading for my bedroom!

Helen Kaminsky - get lost in her wonderful blog....

Hope you like my new artwork!
Happy Sunday!

Sunday Funday

What a wonderful day I had yesterday. 

Plethora of photographs coming up on account of my new camera!!

Along with my Son & his girlfriend, Hubby & Pup we visited the Lancaster area, namely two small villages; Hornby & Wray. Wray holds a Scarecrow Festival at the end of April which I will be returning for.....I'd like to live there too, it's gorgeous!

We walked, found new cycle trails, made plans to buy a cycle trailer so we can take Sebastian with us when he is a little older (if his Mama will let us pinch him!!) and played, yes, played on a play area outside the gorgeous Bridge House Farm Tearoom (after we had enjoyed cake and coffee!)

 

 

Hope you had a fun Sunday!
Nothing better than fun and laughter - 
good for the soul!

I Capture The Castle #TheYearInBooks

Wow. I'm doing not bad on the reading front. 

Certainly joining with Laura and her Year in Books has got me back into reading. 

Very grateful!

So my last book was not what I thought at all!! I think I thought it was this! LOL!

My choice - Destinations turned out to be a selection of short stories. 

Perfect for getting back into reading!

So this morning I perused my messy bookcase.......

& chose I Capture The Castle by Dodie Smith, which I have been meaning to read for a long time!

Preferably whilst lounging in bed!

Hopefully I will finish before the end of the month this time!

What are you currently reading?
Why not join in with Laura?
