The pretzel-fairy

 

The way through the forest is enchanting and I knew that we would have a great

time sketching at Kaiserlinde in Burgbergwald...the linden leafs first and later the whole tree...as we were sketching we heard the fairy say: "...ah here you are, I got you some nice fresh pretzels..." and he went away by bike as fast as he came.

What a magical forest to sketch in, Paula and I said and so we sketched and eat the wonderful pretzels.

 

 

...here comes the one with the tree and our bikes leaning there:

 and now comes the pretzel sketch in the wilderness:

 Great day with Paula. Many thanks to the pretzel-fairy!

A bit of snow

 

A bit of snow changed my coundtryside woods (Burgberg forest) into a fairytale landscape in January. The view I painted, is the view from the edge of the forest into a place that leads to a beautiful small clearing, we call "cathedral of light", as if the sun is shining into it, it feels and looks very magical.

Ein wenig Schnee hatte meinen heimischen Wald, den Burgbergwald im Januar in eine Märchenlandschaft verwandelt. Der Blick, den ich gemalt habe zeigt vom Waldrand in einen Weg hinein, auf dem man zu einer kleinen Lichtung kommt, die wir die "Kathedrale des Lichts" nennen, denn wenn die Sonne dort reinscheint sieht es magisch aus.
