 Blackberry festival with the wood mice

Harvest Festival in the Blackberry Hag!
Now everyone draws from the full.
Fips and Tini, also friend Snaag
may feast as they please.

So there's gymnastics, hand-hanging,
jumped up, abseiled,
little tail wrestling with little tail,
when rushing to the prey.

Because everyone wants to catch
yummy berry balls,
who falls to the ground in droves,
and home carried on the fly.

But the best hang high
sweetly spoiled by the sun.
Quickly pushed up the ladders.
Cheerful laughter sounds.

Max, the little one, is scurrying about
to the top with skill.
Grabs two in one go.
The same trick every year.

Friedolin and mouse Sophie
start to sing the blackberry song.
Mice never sing happier,
than smeared with blue juice.

All frolic,
others cook or feast,
praise neighbor's juice recipes,
lift some blackberry jugs.

The moon has long since appeared
and softly illuminates the festival.
Blessed with blackberries are the expressions,
when all tired it leaves.

Today's tutorial at Jean Haines's Online Art School www.watercolourinspiration.com

painting a little lamb in the snow using and applying all techniques that we've learned during the last months. Disconnection is the magic word of today's lesson.  







  “Mary Had a Little Lamb” Lyrics by Sarah Josepha Hale

Mary had a little lamb,
whose fleece was white as snow.

And everywhere that Mary went,
the lamb was sure to go.

It followed her to school one day
which was against the rules.

It made the children laugh and play,
to see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out,
but still it lingered near,

And waited patiently about,
till Mary did appear.

“Why does the lamb love Mary so?”
the eager children cry.

“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know.”
the teacher did reply

  This is another of my October classwork at Jean Haines's Online Art School www.watercolourinspiration.com The goal is to learn how to connect a group of similar animals. I have so many ideas and so less time during these hectic weeks. But it's okay, I will paint connected animals for the rest of the year and hope it's okay for you all. Are you all thinking I'm joking? So wait and see...

 There are some motives over the years I love to paint regularly and bunnies during springtime are one of them. I'm not really satisfied with my result, but it was fun and relaxing to do it and this is one of the best things we can do for ourselves during these complicated times.
