Hi there lovely ones, I’m back at blogging this week. I skipped last week’s blogpost ’cause I was so busy doing other things…
 |
for one: I started a course “Paleography” last week (“Paleography is the study of ancient and historical handwriting – that is to say, of the forms and processes of writing; not the textual content of documents. ~ Wikipedia ~) and I had to make homework: transcribe this text from 1779.
It’s a pretty long time ago that I had to make homework for a study and I like it! Now there’s another four pages of old text/handwriting waiting for me to transcribe this weekend – but today I gave myself the afternoon off to play in my atelier. |
This morning I did some housekeeping and I wrote a haiku, so let’s start this blogpost with that one eh?!
Friday haiku
| Laag winterlicht streelt de toppen van de duinen het helmgras huivert |
The low, wintry light caresses the blond dune tops Marram grass shivers |
The photo was taken by my friend Lena Schreijenberg
I submit this haiku to Recuerda Mi Corazon where our lovely hostess Rebecca brings us all together to share a haiku on Friday: Haiku my Heart.
While taking this course I have even less time left to be in my atelier, but I managed to get some Chronicles pages done in former weeks.
The Chronicles of Marit 2020 – Week 1
The Chronicles of Marit 2020 – Week 2
And you know what? The more time I spend on writing this blogpost, the less time I have to work on the next Chronicles spread… so this will be it for today, paint is calling my name! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
P.S. There’s plenty of space in the online classroom at LET IT LOOSE.
This online workshop starts on February 20: six weeks – 12 lessons, available in English and Dutch.
Interested? Find all the info on my website.

Happy New year, Marit. 🙂
Always love seeing what you are up to dear Marit! I would love to walk those blond dune tops bundled against the cold. The colors and your words pull me in… have fun with your paleography and atelier as we all move into this new year and decade!
Thank you so much for your visit! Your photo is beautiful and the haiku is beautifully descriptive! Wishing you the very est this day!

I love your haiku..so beautiful…the imagery delightful… You are so creative!
This sounds like a fascinating area of study. I had not heard of it before.
I liked the image of the winds blowing over the dunes. Nicely done!
Shivering grass and homework, thats a good blend. Happy Sunday Marit
