It was raining a bit this morning but I decided to get the bee house hung and a crow bird feeder that Tina and Darren got for me. I attached them to the fence panel that is going to be a shield for the plastic greenhouse.
I pottered a bit before lunch and prepared the dinner for later.
I will add the photos I said I would now, the turkey, who I have named Afia as that was my name in Twi, the language the Ghanaians speak.
Before getting dinner I did a sketch with the pastels, I wasn’t trying for a likeness, just trying to draw a believable head!
Group day tomorrow.
The area in that first photo looks really nice, and very neat and tidy! I think you made a grand job of the bee house, and hanging it, although I think you should have dragged Darren out to screw it to the post!
ReplyDeleteI like the Christmas turkey 😊
The bit of garden with the violas in looks very tidy too. You’ll soon have nothing to do out there…….you wish 😂
I think the pastel sketch is good. I recognised you. Definitely a believable head.
I’ll write the name of that film on my “what not to watch” list. Sounds like one to give a miss.
There are a couple of places that need digging and derooting bu the ground was too wet today, but is is taking shape and looks like a garden now.
ReplyDeleteTime will tell with the bee house.
I haven’t got a great selection of colours in the pastels but I will practice a bit more before I commit to getting any more.
I don’t think the film will be on general release it was made by BBC Scotland, black and white although only filmed last year. That added to the gloom!
I think the sketch is very "human" looking and a good self portrait
ReplyDeleteThank you 😊
