Watercolour

It was a fine afternoon. We met at "Mesnerhaus" and decided to drive to the part of Obsteig called "Wald". Then we went about 10 minutes with our equipment and started painting. Todays theme was "Watercolour". I bought a watercolour-set for 13.- EUR and testet it. Great. All I wanted was: Sitting in the nature, silence, peace, and a wonderful sight. So evolved my first real watercolour-painting. Cereals in the foreground, the "Grünberg" in the background and "Wald" in the middle. Fantastic. Not the painting, but the scenery and the location and the feeling. I have no experience with watercolour-paintings, but I think I would like it. But first I have to explore the technique. I think I will buy an appropriate brush. Not just a Jolly-brush. What I most liked was the peace and quiet of the location. Sitting there, no person to disturbe, no sound of streets, of mankind. Only scenery. Maybe it would be appropriate for playing guitar? Lets see, what the days will bring. For now I have a painting to display.

Settlers of Catan

For the first time since months we played Settlers of Catan. I lost, but thats no surprise. The main thing was playing the game. The other thing: The project "getting a young dog" seems to be canceled until next year. No Odie for the cat.
