Rising above our marshmallow world
When the winter fog sets in, I’m so grateful for our mountains.
Today C and I went in search of warmth and of the promised sun.
This evening I decided to remember today with a little painting. A small jewel hidden inside an old tobacco tin.
Drawn in India ink on seven circles of mylar to mimic the foggy forest.

Exquisite.
I’m glad the sun shone for your return to this home.

Beautiful photos of the mountains and sunshine! I can tell you had a lovely day.
The little painting is perfect!
Veronica
Aw thank you Donna. I really have to pop over to your place and catch up with you. 🙂
Renee Dowling
Hello Veronica, thank you for visiting my blog. Your tiny drawing in the tobacco can is a really neat way to remember the day! I love antiques and finding a new use for them! Great idea.
I really love your close up photos of the plants, especially the lichen on the tree.
My grandma was a Roth, maybe we are related!?
Veronica
Hi Renee, thank you so much. Roth is my married (first husband) name, so probably not; but wouldn’t that have been lovely? 🙂

you have mountains nearby? talkin’ ’bout using inspirations…!
i believe the fog is right in there, in that tiny boxed painting.
as you mused upon dark colours and sparkle… i’m looking forward to that. sounds like roaring witer.

We do Nadine, Vancouver is a little bowl stuck between the US border on one side, the Pacific on one side and an arc of mountains on the last two sides. 🙂
