Leasurely moments

There you go Louis! I told you I was gonna print your olive oil art work!
It's the perfect spot for it too: over the kitchen counter where I eat breakfast and next to the dining table.
Very appetizing and jovial (since it looks like Olive had a litle wine to accompany her olive oil dip!)
don't you think?

OK.
You guys know me: I just HAD to do it....
I had to move some furniture around!


For those who don't know, a little transformation goes a long way in my world!
So, the little console moved from the living room to the bedroom...

along with some of Benjamin's "Art work", strategically dispersed so I can always have some in my view...

And I got new bedsheets to "tame" the red. Ahhh.........
With some jewelry and photos to further personalize the space.
Et Voila!

Always allowing the artist in me to wonder at my surroundings, I look for interesting things as I drive around.
And the wind towers are certainly one of the most remarquable structural landscapes of the Middle East!
At a red light stop, I take a snapshot... I would love to incorporate this unique feature in some future painting...

Yesterday after work, I came and sat at this fountain at the Marina. As the sun was setting at the end of a hot day (30c), I rested and relaxed, listening to the children play, enjoying the breeze, the freshness of the water splashing and the sweet perfume of the water pipes (sheesha) from the Arabian cafe nearby...

And I acknowledged to myself that I was, at this moment, very happy to be.
