Beautiful Grapes. For a moment I felt swept away from the rainy uk to a cabin in Finland.. bliss thanks for the escape ..

 

[Grapes]

Thanks. Btw, raining here this morning too.

I showed my hubby your painting which he liked too and he asked me which region you're in, Grapes? He spent quite a bit of time in Finland (Jyväskylä, Kuhmoinen, Porvoo and near the artic circle) when he was younger.

Wow, he then knows my country well. I'm now in Helsinki. I've never (yet) been to UK but last month I was in Ireland painting sheep . The both cabin lake paintings are painted about 100 km south of Jyväskylä.

Yeh he had a Finnish friend and Finnish ex girlfriend so spent a lot of time there. Oh he's also been to Helsinki lol. He saw the millennium in in Jyväskylä. I let him know where you are.

Yes, I think I saw some pictures when I first joined here, of your trip to Ireland.. Wexford.. was that right? My parents are Irish and I have an aunt in Wexford. Did you enjoy it?

 

[Grapes]

Yes, I was in Wexford. I enjoyed my trip a lot but as our painting locations changed to a new one every day, it was too intense. So, now I have a pile of Irish pleinairs to finish. Nice to hear your aunt lives in Wexford and that your parents are Irish.

Wexford's nice. That's a lot of moving around tho, I'd find that hard too. Enjoy finishing them up!
