What a joyous month! I’ve spent three wonderful weeks doing pretty much nothing at all, except spending time with my all time high favorite, the love of my life; Mr Cat 😻

Lucky me to have my furry Best Friend to hang out with ❤️

Outside – Inside

My initial holiday plan A was NOT to paint, but I quickly realized (due to the not so summerlike weather) that I had to take on plan B – which meant stepping out of the cold, rainy, windy August weather and into my warm and cosy studio to enjoy myself with some painting… 

Of course, as you can see Mr Fabulous Art Cat was accompanying me…

Studio time

With nothing planned, what to do? First I decided to rebuild my studio and make myself some decent storage. Next thing was to go through my sketchbooks and look for interesting ideas for new projects…

Here you can see the beginnings of a small sketching project that might be followed by some new paintings. Time will show…

Paint your summer

Well, if the summer holidays don’t turn out the way you want… just paint what you long for… Sunflowers, blue sky, beach umbrellas, drinks

This is a 30×30 cm acrylic paint / mixed media on deep edge canvas fresh from my newly rearranged studio

Wine and dine  

One good thing about summer holidays is that they give you time to relax and spend some time with friends and family. I love going to restaurants whenever I can afford it and enjoy rich meals with some nice wine…

Bye, bye August…
