Beetroot soup and Oslo

Hello gorgeous souls. I passed my cold and life energy forces came back. I have to admit that sometimes it is good to be ill to appreciate how good is to feel being alive again. It has been a good week. In spite of rain and wind today I could feel spring coming. Nature is waking up after winter dreaming. It is nearly March already and dumped Christmas trees still can be seen on Edinburgh streets. This week I am grateful for time during the weekend at home, time to paint, listen to good music, read and sleep, sitting in front of the fire, munching beetroot soup and sourdough bread made by Scott and feel present in those precise moments.
I came back to painting my deer again. Also inspired by the moment, music and memory of my trip to Oslo years ago I painted 'Oslo' watercolour. Painting during this weekend brought me lots of joy and I enjoyed so much the process of it.
Love and blessings to you all.

Hear me

Oslo

    Dear Aga! I just caught up on your most recent posts -- I truly love the landscapes, and also hearing about the first stirrings of the change of seasons in Edinburgh, and the coziness of Scott and soup and bread. :) Big hugs to you, and I'm glad you're over your cold. <3 May March bring good things for you.

    Dear Aga I love how you put your caring spirit into your paintings. They have a very serene quality about them. Beautiful. Beetroot soup sounds really good to me right now since it is below zero F the last two days! How true that after an illness or injury that once you feel well again you feel especially grateful. Have a wonderful weekend. And thank you for always leaving such kind and uplifting comments on my blog. Hugs!

    Hello Aga. We both are capturing the beauty of the stag this this week. Your work always eludes calm tranquility. There is a clear blue space of air around your stag allowing it freedom and movement. I love him.

    The deer is beautiful, so powerful. But it is "oslo" that really speaks to me - very tender.

    Glad to hear you survived the cold :)
    Your paintings are superb. I love the stripped back look of them, no fuss just the simplicity of nature in all her glory.
