A Few Things I Forgot......
For those of you who do digital art, here are some free textures for you to download. They are photographs I took at a local National Trust property - Calke Abbey in Derbyshire. Everyone else was taking photos of the house and the furniture whilst I was getting excited about the plaster walls. Got a few funny looks.......

I forgot to mention in my last post that the lovely Diane at My Art Journal is having a give away.....go see her lovely paintings. She is such a prolific artist...I don't know how she does it!
I adore this Garden Girl.
I also meant to show the Lotus Flower books done by two of my blogging friends; Lorraine at Love of Collage ....
.....and Jill at Third Age Musings. Its so nice to see other peoples' versions of these little books. Thank you girls for having a go....your books are lovely!

Isn't it amazing that when we walk around with our eyes wide open we see so much more than the average person? I do the same thing. Photos of up-close and real textures are my favorites. Glad I found your blog. I'll be back.

The little books are beautiful and the wall textures are amazing. Can't wait to see what you do with them
Lovely walls, particularly the ivy. gorgeous kitten - my eldest & my 'dil' have just got an identical one called Harley, not sure of the sex. I'll look (!) when they have a flying visit for the Highland games in 2 weeks!
Drooling over the sari ribbon colors & envious of your meet with Maggi,that must have been fun!
Gorgeous textures, thanks for sharing. Great class today too, thank you.
I know just what you means about photographing textures! I often take pictures of crumbly walls, lichen and anything that I think would look good in my digital art and I'm sure passers by think I've lost it!
Thanks for sharing your textures - they are great.

I do the same thing Linda. Thank you for sharing your photos, the textures are amazing.
great textures! and Diane's garden girl is wonderful!! xo
Beautiful photographs. Very kind of you to share them. I can remember taking photographs of manhole covers with amazing designs when in France. I had some strange looks that day.
great digi photos and thanks for showing my little book
Thank you dear Linda for sharing your lovely photos ... eventho I do not do digital art ... sniff sniff ... I enjoy a good background and these are each gorgeous!
Seems perfectly normal to me to take pics of walls, cracks in the sidewalk and rusty things ;)
