The weather is all sorts of awful
cold, grey and threatening to rain
which just tops off being an epic bag of snot at the moment
and despite bringing up half a lung with every cough
and having to wade through drifts of tissues
I am getting little or no attention whatsoever
from the unsympathetic sods named Sinus and Phantom
so I did what I always do when things are a bit rubbish
I went hunting packaging and inspiration at the grocery shop
and boy did I hit paydirt... this tea from Madame Flavour is not just pretty to look at
it is delicious in the extreme and totally paint worthy
almost enough to make you feel human.... almost
Not much else was painted this week
there were some iced tea cans finished off from nexba
which makes me dream of being warm again plus they are great fun to paint
it is quite satisfying seeing a little collection starting to form
there were a few other bits and pieces for some ongoing illustration projects
and some sketching and gathering of ideas
but sort of a quiet week really
which given the snot fest is totally appropriate
Happy painting all...xx

hope you feel better soon. I can sympathise but only to a degree because at least you can still paint with a snotty nose - I'm going stir crazy with my painting arm out of action and you've just described yet another Scottish summer - we had hail stones on Wednesday!!
num.... I think I'd really love peach iced tea!! Love your tea packet painting - its very bold and gorgeously striking! hee hee... a true artist - 'hunting' to buy subjects to paint! LOL. Love it!
Hope you feel better soon - not fun.
Sympathise with the weather .... Tasmania is pretty bleak at the moment too.
Awe feel better sweet stuff!! Your art is stellar!!
Hugs from the forest fire laden hot spot across the waves!

Happy PPF

oh the watermelon tea sounds strange and interesting; luv watermelons
have a nice PPF
much love...
Get well soon, Tracey. Love your tea container. I never think to paint things like that. You do it so well.
Hello Tracey, I hope your cold just disappears! Your art is wonderfully clean and colorful as usual.
wow Tracey-your fabulous illustrations surely hide the fact that you're not feeling well-they are brilliant! And I would LOVE to try that tea-would even buy it just for the packaging:) Feel better soon!
Feel better soon! Love your art as always!
Glad to find your blog again. I use to visit when I was more active on Creative Everyday. Take care. I hope you feel better soon but you could never tell you're sick from your art.
I sympathise, having been confined to barracks for a while with a lergy. You, however, are unstoppable and SO talented. Enjoy your tea.
Love the bleeding paint colours :-) It makes the pictures look very juicy!
Lovely paintings, but I am sorry to hear you are sick. Our home just finished with my husband having pneumonia. What a year for colds and flu!!!
Feel better soon!
Lovely how the teabag and cans
turned out. The cans really look
very delicous! :)They make me
want to try them :))
Have a beautiful weekend Tracey!

Oups... of course I want you to
get better really soon, so you
can leave those two without attention
when it hits them ;) :D
And still you painted just as gloriously as always despite all the snot?! I hope you feel better soon.
ur post is always a wow post !!! :)
Sorry you are not feeling well! You did some great painting though and I know just the process helps you forget you don't fell so good. You're cold there and it's blazing hot here. I'm not complaining though as the sun is actually shining and that has been a rare event this summer for us.
Oh dear, poor you! You do sound pants! I'm glad you found something to cheer you up! Last time you had a cold you were painting tissues and nasal spray! As always your paintings are uplifting! Hope you feel back to your usual self very soon! xxx
I do hope you are feeling better by now! Glad you found lovelies to make even more lovely with your drawing impliments! Wishing you a better week.
