Probably I need to work on getting more energetic……
If I was in Scotland I could “hire ” my daughter who has just started out as a personal trainer.
Working for about 4 hours a day shouldn’t be so exhausting.
Though I suppose there are several other hours spent “practising.”
Dreaming that I am painting doesn’t really count .
Anyways I have 2 days off, to work on 2 commissions, a portrait, a sign, and something else which I haven’t bothered to translate yet.
Not to finish any of these things, but just to plan them all .
Anyways I’m very fortunate to have work. And I might have another mural to paint soon. Or 3………
It was a lovely morning again…though chilly.





It was a bit of an experimental day painting leaves and magnolia flowers. I might have a system now. I’ve another 7 to paint as well as some other additions.

There is much more to mural painting than merely painting , at least for me . It’s a bit of an honour or privilege to paint on someone’s wall. I don’t know how to put it into words.
This afternoon after the gas man came , and now I don’t need to worry about the gas running out, I painted a small sign on an old terracotta tile.
Now I’m finished for today.
It’s wine time, Saturday evening, and I don’t have to get up early tomorrow morning.
Blissful sigh …….cheers🍷🍷
