Thursday Trios – #7

….an odd collection this week, some new and some from the archives

Every Thursday or theres about I post photos of trios, such as three objects (similar or not), three people (related or not) or three animals. If you’d like to join the challenge copy the link from this post and paste it into your submission. There are no rules as to when you post, what size photo you post or whether it’s in colour or black and white. I’ll do my best to leave a comment on your site when you join the fun.

Life in Colour – Brown

….thanks to Jude of Travel Words for hosting Life in Colour https://traveltalk.me.uk/2021/01/31/life-in-colour-5/

The colour for this month is brown. Brown is not the first colour that comes to mind for me but in my art I am appreciating this neutral colour more and more. In the family of browns one can find colours such as burnt sienna, raw sienna, burnt umber, chocolate brown, tan, beige, taupe, chestnut, russet, desert sand and beaver. Many of these browns are easily found in nature.

Cheer Up – January Squares

….thanks to Becky B for hosting January Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/01/24/square-up-24/

Nothing cheers me up more that a bouquet of fresh flowers. Two of my favourites are these mini irises and yellow tulips.

Of course my granddaughters cheer me up even when I can only see them over the phone. Today is a special day in our family. It is Sevin’s first birthday today. We’re getting ready for a Zoom birthday party in the next few minutes.

Cheers!

Six on Saturday – Jan. 16, 2021

….thanks to the Propagator for hosting Six on Saturday ,https://thepropagatorblog.wordpress.com/2021/01/09/six-on-saturday-09-01-2021/

These photos are not from my garden. Today I walked through the gardens in High Park. Normally there would be snow on the ground but this year we’ve had unusually mild temperatures and next to no snow in Toronto. Little pops of green are everywhere, as well as the browns of winter (which I also love).

Dried Up – Day 16

thanks to Becky B for hosting January Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/01/16/square-up-16/

Who says that dried up means ugly or lacking in beauty? I personally love how dried up leaves and plants look on a winter’s day.
