different colors

Hi everybody I hope you all had a wonderful easter holiday!
We had a lot of fun, it was very relaxing, creative and extremely sunny with incredible 26° C in April!
Here are some of my sketches which I did on my balcony or at the beach. I chose  a frame made ​​of scraps of paper from wallpaper sample books and selected as a basic color theme for each page .... What color / collage is your favorite?
(Sorry a few scans turned a littlebit blury)

Touri-Tour

On Tuesday we made ​​a real tourist tour. We went to the "Niederwald monument" this is a statue above of the famous  town  "Rüdesheim", where every year hordes of tourists from all over the world come to visit the famous Drosselgasse for example or to visit up hill, the "Germania" and to enjoy great views. We walked through the woods to visit other viewing points from where one can see more castles or ruins.

On friday we went up hill into the winefields for a walk, so here are a few pics from above into the rhine valley, with lots of clouds and a few signs of spring.
Hope you all had a nice weekend.

Step-by-Step-Tutorial Collage

Remember me collecting all these wallpaper sample books? I thought I'll make an example (for my teaching) how you can amke a collage out of it. I added also strips of an old pattern book and a bird collage. I think it is pretty easy to have a nice little picture for you wall and a lot of fun doing it.


I hope you all will have a sunny and nice weekend!

EGGS!

We startet to decorate some hard boiled eggs with "Shake it" you put the warm eggs in a cup with rize and color and shake it! If you like you can repeat it with an other color. And than we added some metallic lines with this sticks. That was pretty much fun and is to be continued!

And I found a abonded bird nest - what a great find! - and filled it with different type of eggs.
I have a whole collection of different eggs, which I love very much.

So much fun dyeing eggs with bright colors make, I'm more on the natural decoration.

On the other side

Yesterday we even changed the state, which means you drive over a bridge. In "Heidenfahrt", thats the name of the small little village, the beach there  is much nicer than our pebble beach, some quite dirty and unkempt, if he is also partly embellished with creative sculptures.
The weather was great, though no swimming weather, although some crazy people are actually gone into the water. Shivering cold, 15 or 17 ° C degrees (of the water)!!!

You have to savor every moment, for tomorrow the weather will be worse and we did and had a lot of fun.
Hope your weekend was fine too and wish you all a nice start into the week.

What is blogging all about...

or... THE ART SPIRIT 

Through Art mysterious bonds of understanding and of knowledge are established among men. They are the bonds of a great Brotherhood. Those who are of the Brotherhood know each other, and time and space cannot separate them.

The Brotherhood is powerful. It has many members. They are of all places and of all times. It has many members. They are of al places and of all times. The members do not die. One is member to the degree that he can be member, no more, no less. And that part of him that is of the Brotherhood does not die.

This is another quote I found in "The Art Spirit" of Robert Henri. I discovered this book and ordered it right away. For me its an softener for the soul, something you need from time to time.

And sometimes (yesterday) its nice to have some sort of "dayspa" for your tummy, in your favorite home coffee shop!

millions of calories but sooo goood!



did I tell you that I'm a coffee mug addict
