Hello my dear Steemians,
Weather Warning in Scotland
That was not planned to write about the weather in this post, but this morning when we woke up and I found that in our area South East Scotland we have Amber Alert for weather, that means wind and snow and that the school of our son is closed today (you can’t imagine how my son was glad to hear this news :) So when I looked through the window it is really some snow is laying on the ground, it is not deep may be max 3 cm, I just immediately recalled how few posts ago, my friend warned me not to tell a word with“S” – Spring, so I think it is my fault, that we have stormy weather.
On other hand, so because as a child I saw much snow the same like my husband when we had to go to school and it was snow up to our knees, nevertheless, everything was functioning like schools, airports, the flights, rails. I can imagine that for my Steemit friends in Norway, Germany and Russia ........this is normal winter weather that they have.
Anyway, my dear Scottish friends: ,
hope you have everything save and secure and we all will be fine at the end.
Now back to my Acrylic work:
Today I make a little break in my Watercolor painting and present my acrylic work, the reason for that was my little niece, you know her as “Little ballerina”.
I have already mentioned before my little niece, she has got cold and was last couple of days off school, so yesterday I decided to make her day a bit interesting as she was the whole few days in bed and I can imagine as every little kid it is boring and difficult because normally there is no free quite minute. But her parents asked me not to let her to plays active games so she is not exhausted.
Of course I was very good nurse and entertainer; I think my niece can’t imagine me without my painting or drawing. So first of all what she asked me tell me a story about “Flying Dutchman”. Of course, we searched a bit in internet and found that The Flying Dutchman (Dutch: De Vliegende Hollander) is a legendary ghost ship that can never make port and is doomed to sail the oceans forever. Immediately she wanted me to paint it. Of course I thought I will use acrylic colors as I did not want to mess around and also I did not have too much time either, so I took my palette knifes and colors, I still had no chance to buy blue color, so I had to really squeeze the rest and luckily it looks blue enough.
Because it is a ghost ship, I decided to make it and the sails in dark colors, no happy colors, but my niece wanted then a bit of sunshine, although I was not really convinced that it fit to that of course I agreed.
And few steps:
