POCKETS, BASKETS, BAGS, HANDFULS




Mushrooms all over. All size and colours. Some hiding with their colours, some waving with their brightness. Baskets, pockets, bags and hands full. Buckets of apples. Chilly autumn air that is filled with scent of apples and cinnamon.

Bicycle Caravan to friends. Available as a bit smaller print in my shop, too. 

How lovely to get home after long walks and bicycle trips, to feel the warmth of home while stepping in. To get nose and hands warm again and turn on lights. The mornings are traveling further, they come later. The traveling birds too, migrating. Imagining suitcases to them with swimsuits and beach towels. Au revoir, see you next year the winged ones!

Stay warm, have a calm week!

  2. Hello! I would like to walk the same paths and roads, to see those numerous mushrooms, to feel the warmth of the house before the lights are switched on... But actually I did, through your story, thank you!!
    I like so much the idea of the birds, flying with suitcases!Do you think to draw them?:))
    Have a wonderful Autumn!!! Here, we have summer again - over 30 degrees Celsius. The Black Sea beaches are full with people again...:)

    1. My favourites are mushroom salad and mushroom sauce. (Soya) cream and mushrooms always work so well together (:

      Have a sweet arrival of autumn!

  5. Last week, we hear before seeing two wonderful wild geese under our head in the garden. They were flying very low. It was a magical moment, the end of summer this time again.

    1. Dear Anaïs,

      Now the mushrooms are hiding a bit, in the same colours as the fallen leaves of trees. It is alright, my freezer is full, and jars are full with dried mushrooms. The winter will be wonderful, but first more of these slow steps of autumn.

      Have a good weekend!
