Friday's here but on and off all day I've been feeling its Saturday.
Now, I'm thinking, our lives scoot by too fast anyway... exactly what do I think I'm doing by helping it along lol.
So, quickly to choose a recent bit of artiness and here's my entry for this week's Paint Party Friday:
| "Sassy Leaves" Collage with re-used artwork and inkpen (thought it looked kind of nice with the pretty plate as a background so I included that in the photo too) |
~ thank you for visiting... I hope you all have a restful weekend, Sue xx ~
Lovely art is waiting to be viewed over at Eva and Kristin's blogspot, why don't you join us:

Hi Sue wow your work is amazing such pretty colours ,well done my friend xx
ReplyDeleteThanks kindly Shez π
DeleteLovely art, indeed - and in purple color! The plate is beautiful in itself, not only as background, with dark purple leaves dominating it.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific weekend!
Thank you Duta, appreciate that :D)
DeleteI love this plate too, it sits outside on my rockwall and I see it daily - otherwise it would sit in a dark kitchen cupboard and only rarely be used π
What a charming collage you created, Sue! Love the whole thing and your beautiful small painting is a top on it.
ReplyDeleteI had same day broblem in the beginning of the week. One day dimishdπ± Now I'm in a chart
again π.
Happy PPF and relaxing weekend π
Hi Sirkkis, thank you very much.
DeleteOh that strange feeling when the days feel different... glad you're back on track too! Happy PPF and cheers π
Beautiful art, and love how you used that pretty plate as a backdrop. Time flies by indeed, and the older I get the quicker it passes! Love to see your smiling face in the avatar, too. Happy PPF and have a great weekend! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Valerie - its so nice to have you visit. Lots of happiness in that smile thank you :D) Happy PPF π

What a sweet piece - and yes!! Time zips by way to too fast, doesn't it?? Holiday weeks often get me off schedule ...
ReplyDeleteHi Nadya and thank you.
DeleteYes it does, and yet all those daily things still have to be done... why can't they zip away too ;D) Happy PPF π

It's a really lovely illustration - lovely and minimalist. I agree it would make a super card, so fresh and clear. Hope you have a great weekend and week ahead, Sue.
ReplyDeleteThanks so kindly Sheila - it shall be a card :D)
DeleteHope your weekend is lovely too π
Hello Sue, what a beautiful thing!
ReplyDeleteAlways looking at your beautiful designs;
You know we could move blogging people
friends to exchange Christmas cards, made by ourselves.
Something to think about ...
Thanking you for the visit of August yet.
I'm late lol.
PEACE AND GOOD.
Hi Janicce, many thanks for your lovely thoughts. No worries, you're not late - no time limits here ;D)π
DeleteYour Christmas idea sounds nice, and is very thoughtful, but I'm not sure I could keep up.
Es muy bonito. Yo tambiΓ©n te deseo un fin de semana feliz. Besos.
ReplyDeleteTranslation: "Is very pretty. I also wish you a happy weekend. Kisses."

Thanks so much for stopping by - you left such lovely words of encouragement.
ReplyDeleteLoved your flower collage - great plate backdrop!
aw you're welcome Bev, so nice to see you back again.
DeleteThanks re my collage too - much appreciated :D) π
I have read the older we get our perception of time speeds up and i swear a week is only 4 days now. Can't imagine what it would be like when I'm 80 and then 90. Love those beautiful flowers!
ReplyDeletelol, I'd swear at that along with you Sandy!
DeleteThanks re the flowers and lovely to see you back painting again :D) π
o, so that is where your plant came from. :) That plate is gorgeous.

Many thanks Carol π
DeleteBeautiful artwork and I love your plate too and yes, I feel the same way you do about lives flying. Enjoy the rest of your weekend Sue :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes it'd be nice to make time stand still eh, even if only in short blocks ... just now and then... not asking much ;D) lol. Thanks for popping over Denise and for your thoughts π
DeleteHi Sue!
ReplyDeleteThank you for comment and I'm glad you liked my abstract.
Have a wonderful Sunday and a great start to the next week xx
Hi Sirkkis, it was gorgeous!
DeleteThank you, Sunday was great... I felted and painted to my heart's content :D)
Hope yours was too xxπ
You can call me 'May' (I don't share personal things anymore..One bad 'episode' some years ago was enough.)
ReplyDeleteI like your pedantic style in this. Very zen...
Thank you May... that works for me :D) I was probably a bit cheeky (in my forward Aussie way) in asking! I can certainly understand your reasons for privacy and I appreciate your response.
DeleteThanks too re your thoughts about my painting - appreciated π
I love that you re-used art in your piece! Great idea and it looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I think time flies by way too fast. Where are those long weeks from our childhood?
Thanks very much Carola :D)
DeleteOh yes, I can remember (lol, that chant from oldies "I can remember" ... hang on I'm an oldie now!!!! ;D)) ... when time felt endless - never a thought, or care, to the future. I now know how fortunate I was back then, to be able to have a carefree childhood.
Lovely to have you visit Carola - enjoy your week xx π
Buon inizio settimana
ReplyDeleteTranslation: "Good start to the week"
DeleteThank you very much Giancarlo :D)
