Tonight the painter has not arrived. There is probably a very good reason, but I don’t  know what it is. Being a bit of a ” worst case scenario” type person I’ve  been out and checked that there isn’t  anything I couldn’t  finish. There is probably only about half an hour’s  work left.

To cheer myself up I’ve painted stone Anne and stone James with primer and am considering painting them either a single colour or actually painting the faces.

Tomorrow  morning I think I might have a go at moving the flowerpots back without hurting myself in the process. Some of them are quite slidey.

Today I mostly worked on the commission  which is looking good.

After being out at a party last night I was a bit tired so I didn’t  get around to drawing another crayon portrait.

Also I am going to be part of a group exhibition  in the Piazza in August so I cut two boards to fit frames and might draw a couple of portraits for that. I’m very happy to be joining a very nice group of women artists.

There is no theme this time so I can just chose 4 of my favourite paintings. Perfect!.

It’s  good to have something to look forward to in August to take part in.

Now for wine time and Maigret.

Cheers 🍷 🍷
