Autumn feeling

Do you know that at the end of a season, the feeling of autumn, or the feeling of spring?
It's just September, and I've had autumn in my head for a week. The weather is changeable, with often a strong wind, it is a lot colder, it gets dark earlier in the evening. Typical autumn feeling for me. As soon as the days get shorter, I always find it very nice with the candles on in the house. Music in the background and a nice or good book. Even though such evenings do not happen very often for myself, because of all the day's bustle, work, cooking, taking care of little son and putting to bed. And before you decide to plunge on the couch, the evening is often almost over, or my eyes are already closed 🙊.
So I cherish those moments when I can do it, and I enjoy it extra.

Last weekend I walked into a giant book store, in an old church, transformed into a book paradise. It was a shame it was so busy. (corona? )
Me and my friend had an afternoon for ourselves and have been able to snoop around thousands of books at ease. And that's where we bought booklets.
A booklet or drawing and painting with watercolor watercolor, beautiful illustrations, for me a lot of inspiration to start drawing, painting.
A book about the #botanische drawing/painting, full of beautiful pictures and explanations.
And a book to #mindfull to live, here and now. Something that often falls into it. The book is full of assignments to look for things around you, then write it down as a kind of diary.
Enough to do, to get through the fall and winter. Now only more often find such moments for myself;)
