Visited Pembroke Castle....

on our recent trip away ~

Well worth a look.














No - not me.  I did consider it for about one second but decided it gave others the opportunity, much better to be polite isn't it!

Whimsical paintings

I've recently been doing some whimsy-style paintings, inspired by friends who have recently moved to Devon and have shared pictures online of their chickens, amongst various other photos.  Anyway, they inspired me, and having asked permission to use the pics, I set to having a bit of fun.  (as a Thank You to our friend, she will be receiving the collection of paintings to keep).

This was from a photo taken of her chickens in the snow - plus
keep in mind, these friends have just moved down this way and are doing work on their house renovating it




The husband has a 2CV 



This wasn't so much from photo ref. but more from imagination - but I know eggs will need to be collected and could just envisage one of the chickens doing this!


....and this was an occasion when a 'visitor' decided to sit on the bird table!

Good on him - the husband was helping hang the washing out -

Seems like they have very opinionated chickens.





 ~I'm having fun turning their photos into paintings with a comical twist ~

Think I have a thing about water rushing down hillsides....

....or am I just finding a few of them recently


Anyhoos, I saw this one and thought it would be nice to share it with you here...
