Our Lavender Provencal is spectacular this year.
This bouquet picked today is filling the house with its wonderful aroma…
…but as you can see I couldn’t resist a stopover in the studio on the way.
After Part 1, time for Part 2
Bridging time, place, studio and friends, this photo was taken in Venice almost twenty years ago. Back in the studio a few years later it inspired the painting that then became a gift to dear friends.
Speaking of bridges here are a few featured on thechangingpalette over the past few years:
Wishing family and friends below the 49th a very Happy 4th of July
as I remember some unforgettable moments visiting down south.
Happy Second Birthday to our beautiful granddaughter
who brings so much love, joy, laughter and colour into our lives
with everything she does xxx
Those of you who follow thechangingpalette will remember my year of sundays last Thanksgiving Day and know how beloved our little Sunday was. Sadly, she will no longer be keeping me company in the studio anymore as we said goodbye to her today. We will miss her but are relieved she is suffering no longer. For those of you who didn’t know her visit my Thanksgiving Day post and see how very special she was.
Depicting a state of impermanence.
I couldn’t resist re-visiting my photos of the Mirroir d’Eau in Bordeaux for this week’s Photo Challenge: Transient, where every few minutes the scene changes as the 2 cms of water that create the largest reflecting pool in the world drain away to expose its granite floor…
…before returning again to the delight of adults and children alike.
You can see more of this magical World Heritage Site in my post of December 2015
Happy Father’s Day to the proud new daddy of the family and to all proud daddies everywhere.
