to snow, winds and worse weather than there was in Edinburgh, which is not how things are meant to be! I had a wonderful time with my lovely sister, Jane and her equally lovely spouse, Frank, as well as flying visits to sons, daughters and grandmothers... but I did weaken towards the end. Jane and I went to the Gallery of Modern Art on Thursday, and I came back wanting to paint. Frank, bless him, had all the materials to hand, and 'Head Over Heels' was made in an hour or so on Friday morning. It is really a sketch, I would have approached it quite differently had I been at home, but it's not a bad wee thing, really. There's definitely room to make more work around this. Jane assures me that it will be down to live with me, so it might end up looking quite different... but for the meantime, it is drying calmly in a corner of her kitchen.
And here I am, back again, full of ideas and thoughts, and delighted to have spent some quality time with my 'little' sis! Now it's back to work, of course, but that is hardly a hardship.

Thanks for sharing Marion.... it's amazing what you can sometimes accomplish in a very short time with the ultimate inspiration!
Good to have you 'back'!
Love it.What an accomplishment.Enjoyed hearing about it also.
Good news al round, Marion. The painting is superb, as is. Don't touch it.
I think the painting is wonderful as it is. Isn't it Picasso that said no painting is complete, just abandoned? :)
