Home Base for the Artist to Restock Supplies. 03/27/2010

Reg and I had a good drive home to northern Victoria from the Grampians. We had an interesting stop over at Bendigo Pottery and I took photos to share in my blogs of the historical pottery.

We arrived home to find my autumn roses in flower and my potatoes ready to harvest. I have had a quick check and aside from some climbing roses needing a good tie back, all looks good after the storm that went through this area about a month ago while we were away.

I freshened up and popped my feet up and I am now enjoying that I have full bars of internet connection on my computer so I will be able to do my internet work a lot faster, J and enjoy it more. Do those promised competition prize giveaways for my Kathy Shell fans.

A quick look through the five weeks of accumulated mail which included an overdue gas bill, (oops), the dog registration due, three parcels to be collected, and a free life insurance quote, nothing too eventful there.

I am sitting here relaxing for a short time, and thinking about what exercise I will do now I do not have those wonderful Grampians mountain ranges outside my caravan door. I am also deciding where to start on the many things I want to do while at home base, before resuming our tour.

I want to catch up with my daughter and her family who live in this area soon J and I plan to pack more art supplies than I took with me on tour, the first time..

I had packed and took away on this trip, the pastels, acrylics, watercolours and guess what happened? I felt like painting in oils. Lol, Is that the artist’s prerogative?

OK, where do I make a start?

I have illustrated this post with some of my favorite photos from the Grampians.
