Friday Catch Up - 7th August 2026

Friday Face Off / Doodlewash Art Challenge

This is the only watercolour I managed to do this week because we had the grandchildren staying and I was doing other stuff. I took a picture of the orangutans from a TV program called Orangutan Jungle School., they look so cute on that but I'm afraid they look awful on my painting.

I added a stencil [digitally] on an older gelli print .

I added my photo of a wasp to this altered gelli print.

This is the original gelli print

Monday Window, Thursday Doors, Pull up a Seat

The photos are from the Adriatic again. The first four in Zadar, Croatia, the last two in Split, Croatia

I wonder how people reached this building above set in the mountain side 

 My Flower of the Week is a poppy growing in my garden [in June]

That's it for today, enjoy the rest of the week.

The photos were taken in Koper, Slovenia. 

There are a lot of seats in front of the bar but they are hard to see on a small photo.

I have a range of trees for Thursday TreeLove.

That's all folks, see you next time, have a great week.

Flower of the Week

I didn't post yesterday as I was having fun at a relatives house and this is where I took these photos of the sun really more than the flowers

It was only a matter of seconds before the sky looked like this

Hope you're having a fun weekend!
