monkey around

I have to ruminate over this drawing a bit longer.

:)

a thousand flowers

We've been away, now we're back.


The bee garden got taller and wilder since we left.

Illustration Friday - Craving

watercolour

When I was a child, I couldn't pass up these little red flowers that were full of nectar. They might have been honeysuckles. ( i painted them much fatter than they really are. They are normally long and skinny and bell out at the petals.)

My goal was to try make a picture without outlines. This was the first time I drew my illustration friday on the actual friday. :)

IF - Adapt

Pen and watercolour.

My simple drawing for Illustration Friday.
The theme was 'Adapt', I was too late to enter it though.

This week was really hectic for us! So many late nights out.

We had our 2nd wedding anniversary last week & celebrated with a picanic.

The first strawberries from our garden.

Heiko in the Louvre.


Rodin's garden (thanks for this suggestion!)







We had a really good time! The museums were incredible & so was the food. We were there for only four days, (but it takes me ages to update my blog.)
If you want to see more pictures, I made a set here.
Thanks so much to everyone who made suggestions!

The day before we went there, we drove to Zürich to set up Heiko's exhibition, 'Headscapes'. He made a post about it here.

paris

We are going to Paris in a couple of weeks & staying near Montmartre!



Anyone have any suggestions of must see/do/etc?

I think we will definitely try to visit:
Musée d'Orsay
Sacré Cœur
A nice garden/park of some kind (maybe Jardin du Luxembourg)
A nice book shop


Thanks :)
