At the end of the year I made the flowers in my lino-cuts pictures colourful, added a bit of a story to each of them and put them all into a little book. A nice finish of my 'Flower' year.

2015     

I have not yet decided what my project for this year will be, but I am sure it will have something to do with flowers. So my theme for 2015 will be

Blümchen 

Since I have no longer a garden, the herb pot on the little flat balcony has to have also a flower, of course.

On the wall opposite the bed I always put up some pictures and I change them frequently. This year I started off with photos of flower pictures I have done over the years. 

LINO CUT PRINTS

Last year Ulrike thought me the basics of linocut printing. 
And this is my first picture:
It is an old Chinese legend about a women und her two water pots.

                                                                                                                                    February 2015

I had great fun doing this.

And here is another lino cut I made.
It is from poem by Wordsworth about dreaming of daffodils.
