Friday Night with Friends....

....has come around again very quickly! Thank you very much to Cheryll for getting us organised - you can see who else took part here 

However,I dont seem to have very much to show for my afternoon and evening! 

I have been playing with watercolours this week, painting fruit. So first up I completed this pear



which I am happy with. The paper is too thin so it has cockled but as this is only for practise I am not bothered. I have also done a banana



and and apple which I am NOT sharing!

Having completed my pear I got out this small piece that I started some time ago. The photograph is of some beautiful autumn leaves and I am trying to replicate the colours although without too much success.



Then in the evening I made a start on my swap hexies for the month.



Other more exciting news is that my poppy is complete - well apart from the hanging sleeve, a minor detail!


And I am really very pleased with how this has worked out.

The weather here has been up and down - today it is up but next week looks like it is going to be very wet. So it looks like time for more decorating!

Have a good weekend.
