She is wonderful! She's a bit different than your usual girls, isn't she? Love it! Good luck with all the firewood. :)
ReplyDeleteoh, wow, Tammie... what an amazing composition, gorgeous colors, lovely rendering -- I especially love the face on the moon. Sending you autumn blessing ... glad to see the wood pile ready for winter: cold is on its way!
ReplyDeleteI like this piece Tammie. Soft colors and she's quite pretty. You have a lot of firewood, enjoy it. Take care and thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful. I love the shadow of you on the woodpile. Blessings, Janet PPF
ReplyDeleteLove the moon face!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture and I love your photo, too! Valerie
ReplyDeleteshe's beautiful, such a lovely illustration. thats a very impressive wood pile-you must have a massive fire place-we'd have to chop those bits up several more times to fit in our wee woodburner!
ReplyDeleteHave so much to express ... this is ART!
ReplyDeleteThanks , THIS IS JUST A WONDER.
A big hug!
She's so gorgeous! Love her soft loving face and where she is! Beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteYaY! Autumn Moon! It's a new moon at the moment, that means darkness and no moon in view so it's lovely to see a moon in the sky in your painting!
ReplyDeleteJess xx
Really beautiful work! I love the colors and the detailing.
ReplyDeleteUugggg....winter is coming!! Although I love the clothes of winter, I HATE to be cold. Time to start thinking about hibernation!
xoxo
What a beautiful Fall painting--wonderful piece of art Tammie.
ReplyDeleteOooh --winter-- it comes way too fast!
What a beautiful piece! (I loooove whatever technique you've used at the bottom of the page!)

Kristin
p.s. EVA is going to love that moon!
I love all the foliage and flowers in this one, it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful, your style is undergoing such an evolution.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Journal pages I love the soft appearance of the face in the mood. And all that wood, I would love to see the fire it's for over the Winter ;0) Dxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful painting and a lovely log pile. It makes me feel warm!xxx
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that Moon! And the rest of the pages - fabulous spread.
ReplyDelete(Kristin knows me so well....)
Great wood pile and shadow photo.
Hi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteLovely details in the background. The moon's face seems to be speaking to the young woman. And after reading your poem, I see that they have a silent communion. How I'd like to be in the forest now:)
And look at all the trees in your photo! That must be a good workout cutting and piling that wood.
hello everyone,
ReplyDeletethank you for your wonderful comments, I love your friendship and support!
As for the wood:
yes those pieces in the pile are TOO big, so yesterday I split them all and stacked them. So sore! So tired, but feeling strong and good.
Kristen, the foliage at the edges was done with Tim Holtz distress stains, fun and easy to play with!
lovely art day to you all.
xo
Beautiful image and writing!
ReplyDeleteBoth are so poetic!
Enjoy seeing the photo of gathering wood for winter, too! :)
Happy PPF!!

this piece has real power. Love her beauty and the subtle face in the moon.
ReplyDeletebeautiful, radiant faces on the girl and the moon. love the colors of the twilight sky, and the foliage technique is supercool.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely lady and beautiful words too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome painting and words and love that you captured your 'shadow' by the woodpile ~thanks, namaste, Carol (Share the Creative Journey) ~ Happy PPF ^_^
ReplyDeleteHi Tammie, love your journal page, your girl is gorgeous... also wow. Your home in the woods looks magical... peaceful... have a wonderful weekend...
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I love your journal spread. It's beautiful and evocative (I'd love to have that moon smiling down at me!).
ReplyDeleteHooray for your wood pile! What a great photo of it!
Happy PPF!
The colours you've used are really lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour woodpile is a good start - although I hear this will be a long, cold winter!!!
Thank you for visiting me today :)
She's beautiful! Her face is so pretty and soft with those big blue eyes.
ReplyDeleteYour wood pile reminded me that it's almost time to get our firewood for the winter. There's nothing cozier that a fire in the fireplace on a cold evening.
The face on this painting is just lovely and I have always wanted to live somewhere cold enough to need a fire... we barely need a blanket in winter here... and it is glorious spring here now xx
ReplyDeleteIs she you? I like her very much.
ReplyDeleteAre the you the wood splitter??
So magical, Tammie! I think I'm her kindred spirit because the moon and I can be inseparable... :D
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see you all prepared for winter. Keep warm! oxx
warm hugs to you all for your lovely visits.
ReplyDeleteSandy, I am the wood splitter, along with using a gas operated splitter. Still moving a cord of wood many times yesterday wore me out! I am not doing manual labor today ;-)
Tracey, I use to live somewhere that rarely got chilly. I love being able to wear boots and scarves, sweaters and the air is divine to breathe.
many thanks.
Tammie
Hi Sandy,
ReplyDeleteNope she is not me, well not a self portrait, I still have to try that some day. I will have to learn how to draw wrinkles ;-)
but in spirit, I suppose it is very much me.
thanks for asking.
Someone on FB thought she looks like my sister.

Your pages are charming love the moon and the look on the girls face.
ReplyDeleteWe have to work on firewood this weekend too :)
How delightful and ethereal! Happy PPF!

I love your painting, the beautiful colours and the little touch of the female face in the moon. I always think of the moon as feminine.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are in for a warm, cozy winter. Although you are sure to keep warm if you keep coming outside to chop more wood!
She is gorgeous! I love her eyes! Thank you for your sweet visit last week for PPF - I'm so sorry that I'm late in returning the visit, xo
ReplyDeleteTammie, this is beautiful! This looks like an extra large spread in a magical fairy tale book! I love that gentle face in the moon.
ReplyDeleteOh my, you chopped and split and stacked all that wood by yourself???? Muscles!
I love the feeling this drawing gives--I totally adore the detailing you put into it. Your lovely heart shows through your artwork, you know. ((hugs))
