That's my last painting in 2020 and Dears, what a year!  It had an impact on all of our lives and I'm very glad that I could paint, write and photography in my free time and so create a space for me to forget the world around me and just enjoy the creative process.

  

Genießt die letzten Tages dieses eigenartigen Jahres, wo immer Ihr es könnt. Ich möchte jedem einzelnen von Euch danken für all die Treue, Aufmerksamkeit und Zuwendung in den vergangenen 12 Jahren hier in meinem Malerei-Blog. Ich kann die Zahl kaum selbst glauben und es ist mir Heimat und Erinnerungsstätte geworden, vor allem aber der Beginn vielen großartiger Freundschaften und Erlebnisse auf Malreisen und in den vielen vergangenen Meisterklassen. 

Ich wünsche Euch von Herzen einen guten Start in ein positives 2021

---*---

Enjoy the last days of this strange year wherever you can. I would like to thank each and every one of you for all your loyalty, attention, and care over the past 12 years here in my painting blog. I can hardly believe the number myself and it has become my home and memory but above all the beginning of many great friendships, experiences on painting trips, and in the many past masterclasses.

I sincerely wish you a good start into a positive 2021

Ever yours,

Isabella

 Started as a sketch for fir trees on another painting this turned out so lovely, that I decided to add just a little more surrounding to create the atmosphere of a snowy mountain. I'm longing to be outside so much...

Sing hey! Sing hey!

For Christmas Day;

Twine mistletoe and holly.

For a friendship glows

In winter snows,

And so let's all be jolly!

At Christmas play and make good cheer,

For Christmas comes but once a year

her name is Christmas rose

she blooms in Winter's night 

fragile on frozen ground 

when Spring is not in sight

she holds her lovely face

against December's storm

her coming gives us hope

and let us feel the warmth
