Friday Catch Up - 21st March 2025

Painted on fabric with Inktense blocks and pencils.

Doodlewash Art Challenge

This one is of my Granddaughter which I'm not totally happy with. I did one of my other two Grandkids together but that was totally unsuccessful. I prefer doing old wrinkly people.

More from the Gelli Print Book
I also used a few cut outs [my designs], cut on my KNK Zing cutting machine
Cut out bird, collaged house
I cut the rabbits from an old calendar, they are hard to see
Mainly printed using textured wallpaper to make the patterns
The creature is a drawing of a doll I saw on Pinterest
Cut out penguins and a made up creature [polio or liobear] from magazine photos

Photo Challenges

Endre Church, Visby Sweden

Endre Church is one of the 92 medieval churches on the island of Gotland and was built in the 12th century

The frescos inside the church were made by the artist known as the Master of the Passion of Christ in the middle of the 15th century. The frescos were uncovered during a renovation in 1915.
The top of the Baptismal font possibly from the 12th century
Also at Visby, Sweden is the Gotland Heritage Railway
I've been visiting Dundee, Sweden and Denmark while on a cruise, the ship was docked at Visby, Sweden for this pic.
Next stop will be Stockholm



More from Stockholm next time.
Have a fun week!

  1. What a fabulous cruise you're on! Looks like you're having a lot of fun! I'm doing a portrait of a wrinkled granny right now in coloured pencil, but I must say your fabric painting is much better! Wrinkles are tough.

  3. Oh, Stockholm! I haven't been home for so many years now, but nothing seems to have changed.

    Portraits are difficult, especially of people you know. After all, you have seen your grandchildren with so many different faces, in so many moods, that it is hard to depict. To me, your granddaughter looks absolutely charming.

  5. Your drawings are wonderful, and I especially like your Gelli print book. I'm looking forward to your Stockholm photos as I visited there back in the 1980's and I'm curious if it's changed much, which I suspect it has. Have a great weekend.

  8. Great drawing of your granddaughter. When I draw a child I turn them into wrinkly old people. LOL

  10. Ohhhhh I love this first piece of art. I really love all of your art but that one took my breath away. There are so many cool places in Sweden. Wish I was there. Thank you for joining FFO.
