2026 in Pisticci…packing and suchlike….

This afternoon I checked to see how much would go in my little suitcase. I’ve already packed my art bag.

I’m only going away for 4 days, but it might be cold…or not. Better prepare for cold as it is higher up and the temperature  is a bit lower than Pisticci. It’s  easier to wear less than not to have enough layers. ( must remember to take a hat.) Am not exactly a spontaneous  packer….

I’m  getting quite excited about going away now.

Meanwhile in Pisticci it was a horrible stormy rainy morning and while I sat in Bar Genesi with two friends it thundered and threw down rain like waterfalls.

( It was more vertical rain so didn’t  come in my door.  Which is good as I have sandbags , but no sand. )

Artistic coffees.

I  considered lighting the pellet stove today,  but as I was mostly busy adjusting a painting in my work room and then drawing pomegranates  in my sketchbook it didn’t  seem worth the bother.

I thought that I’d  see how they compared with a white and black background. ( It was not exactly  a fair comparison as the pomegranates are no more so I just copied them.)

I found some more photos on facebook …..more cheerful than grey skies and rain.

I love this sketch I did on my tablet.
This was funny.
In the days  when I only had a painted stove and the fridge was in my living room.
Somebody posted this on threads. Can’t find them to thank , but I thought it was just right.

Now it’s  wine time and Sunday vlogs.

Cheers 🍷 🍷
