This morning's walk. Everything lush and green, dewdrops sparkling in the long grass, and buttercups turning their golden faces to the sun.
A great day for drying washing on the line, leaving the door open for the XXSCat dog to run in and out at will. She is locked in mortal combat with several of the neighbourhood cats, who are mostly bigger than her (what with her being an XXSCat dog and them being Medium or even Large Cats).They sit glaring at her through the chicken wire under the hedge, occasionally making a dash round the back of the garage, sending her sprinting down the garden to intercept them. When she's not patrolling the perimeter she's rather partial to basking in the sunshine on the warm metal drain cover by the back door.
I finished the picture for the friend of my friend's Civil Partnership card today. It's a little rough around the edges (my eyesight isn't what it used to be and my fingers aren't as nimble) but I think it came together quite well and has a bit of a jolly Beryl Cook vibe about it. The person who commissioned it is pleased, so that's the main thing. My favourite part of it is the pretty little musical notes floating out on the breeze - they add a touch of whimsy to the happy scene.
