Grids

September 6, 2011 By Marit 16 Comments

The wind rustles around the house and chases grey clouds through the air. The sun struggles to get visible and will probably loose the battle with the rain later today... Autumn has set in.

September 2, 2011 By Marit 24 Comments

It's the second day of my favourite month: September. I love the smell of Autumn in the air. I love the sun standing low at the horizon, making long shadows. I love the quietness of this month. September always makes me a bit melancholic too. Somewhat like in the song 'September morning' by … [Read more...]

Hectic weekend

August 30, 2011 By Marit 17 Comments

It's Tuesday evening, and I'm exhausted! Last weekend was very hectic and took a lot of my energy (I come to that later) and on top of that, I decided to clean the kitchen cabinets today.

August... and the day started with this... and this... .. ... to find its apotheosis in this... It might not be that visible, but our cellar was flooded. We scooped out at least 7 big buckets of water. Thank goodness we were prepared, and got out all the stuff before the … [Read more...]

Did you miss me last Friday? I was here: After all the hard work last weeks, I needed a little break. My 'men' and I stayed with my parents. We visited an art exhibition and ofcourse I had to say hello to my beloved waves... I started working on a big art journal page last week. I … [Read more...]

I woke up very early this morning. The sun peeped through the curtains and the room was full of light. I was just dozing off again when, in the corner of my eye, I saw something strange hovering in the air ... it looked like a smoke-curl, but it was not. The shape  of the curl changed while it … [Read more...]
