Art class on the farm

BEAUTIFUL TRANQUIL PLACE.

When I win the lottery I am going to buy a big old stone farmhouse in the middle of no-where and garden till for ever.

Looks a lovely place - lovely photos Pixi - the crocosmia is beautiful especially

what a lovely place to go to Pixi-- how do you choose which bit to draw-- I always feel overwhelmed!!

Stunning place...I spotted the crocosmia too Paul it's so bright Red....loved everything about it....Loved the dogs too...excellent Pixi thanks for sharing with us...x

Yes it was totally tranquil Coshad.and yes me too Olive! Must get a ticket fot tongiht! lol
Thanks Paul..yes the crocosmia was especially nice and huge!!!!!!!
Well Pam..the students all got to choose what they wanted..some drew cows and chickens others drew the farmhouse and a few jsut picked on a few flowers..that was till it rained! lol
Last tme I was ther I did a sketch of the house, always meant to paint it..maybe one day.
Yes Sue..such a beautiful place I had to let you all see it!
the dogs are wee honies! and I'm not really a dog person myself, more into cats. But they are so well behaved and gentle.

Really lovely Pixi I just love old stone buildings even the ones that are falling down.

Smashing pics and blog. You do have an artist's eye for photography.

Lovely blog and pics,Pixi..what alovely place to draw and paint..glad you all had a good day..:o)

Thanks Stroller..yes i do too! like the mock ruins! :)
Thanks Lillies..If I wasn't an artist maybe I would be a photographer. :)

Well you're a man! LOL!

Hi Pixi...Top of the morning to you...Been raining here all night, but the Sun is up and looking good for the day...bought some new plants yesterday, and just got back before the rain started, so they all had a good water naturally...probably will start planting today...Nothing special planned for today...just relax and enjoy, how about you!!

Morning to you Sue! Sun si up here too fingers crossed we both have sunshine all day! :)
great you got new plants! What did you buy?
Yeah good to relax..I wont be though...going to Dads to do all his washing coooking etc then weeding the front garden..I'll relax tomorrow so pray for sunshine..I want to sit out in my garden and do nothing! lol
Have a good day my friend
xPix

I guess from what you say, Dad is on his own, does he live far from you!!
I'll take some pics and put their details up as I go..A couple will go in Pots...the rest are for the garden...
Hope you get some better weather soon...

Yeah he is Sue, Mum died 17yrs ago and he still misses her every day. He isn't very well now, don't think there's much chance he will improve really. I go up every Sat or Sun to do all things he cant do himself. Was cleaning cooking gardening etc today. And he loves me to wash and massage his feet..bless him. So sad to see him like this, up until about 10weeks ago he was pretty fit for an old man, he is hating losing his independence, not much we can do but be there for him.
I took him up to the graveyard which is at the top of his road to Mum's grave today, he used to go up there every single day wihtout fail for his daily walk and to chat to Mum. He misses that now, he can barely walk about the house. Anyway we have a laugh too as he orders me about now lol..got to laugh eh?
Been a lovely sunny day too. He lives about an hour and half drive from me..wish I was a wee bit closer really.
Hurry up and pot those plants up! lol
take care xPix

That's a gorgeous place! So chic for a farm!! The doogies are lovely, but I'm a cat person too!!

Yes it is Libet! you should see the house inside..big iron spiral staircase leads down to the kitchen and 3 other rooms..its fab!

How the other half lives eh....nice...love it, but too big for me...unless I had one of those three wheeled thingy's to scoot around the estate on...lol...ooh that doesn't bear thinking about lol....:)))

Oh I don't know sounds like fun to me! lol
Omg am I going to be an eccentric old artist in the three wheeler? haha
Sun shines today! Going to relax--ish

What a lovely home and surrounds, Pixi...you have not surprised me with your happy comments about the evening...lol...it would be hard not to enjoy such a tranquil and beautiful place.

I hope you are able to relax today after your busy time with your dad yesterday, Pixi....just chilling in your garden will be your reward :)

Yes it is Whistonlass. I so want to stay there! lol
Well I have to do a little shopping first and a few things then maybe I can sit down and relax in the garden,but will prolly be raining by then lolol! :)
