welcome everyone! I'm so pleased to be here! I say this hoping you will love my posts , and read them often, I'm really happy to be here and hope to meet lovely people and read really good blogs and posts. I am an artist, and I love to travel, but you already know that. I have quite a few blogs up at the moment, though most have been dormant for a while. this new YOORS site is just what I need right now. Creative writing and abstract landscape painting are what I spend most of my day doing which suits me fine And I'm pretty damn good at portrait s too. That's OK as I'm nearly 60. so fair is fair, I should know by now if I'm good or not. I have traveled all over the world so I do have some interesting stories. so I'm looking forward to getting to know you XXX LIZ
Beansprout sandwich

The healthiest thing to eat on a hot sunny day, a grow your own beansprout sandwich. My sandwich is a sesame seed cracker with a smear of (vegan) mayonnaise, topped with alfalfa and radish cress... All kinds of sprouts can be easily grow from seeds which can be purchased from health food shops and garden centers. I use a sprouting column of 3 dishes or put a paper towel on a plate and grow them li...

new landscape painting
Lizzy Agatha
3 years ago
This landscape I have only just finished, it is not even signed or varnished yet, The openness of this one is very different, I have moved house, the landscape I walk in everyday is very different here, more open the Ijssel river, wide open skies, loose tree planting in fields, the colours are very different too. However the technique  used is the one I have been developing for decades, with the ...

Dit was eigenlijk de eerste in deze serie van boslandschappen,  this was actually the first in the series if forest landscapes, I built up the layers of texture as I was developing the composition, I had to rework several areas to get the fell of the texture just right, and the light in this painting, I am particulairly proud of the gentle way the yellows oranges and reds overlap to produce the s...

Where did I start
Lizzy Agatha

I wrote this blog about 3 years ago, for my 'wordpress' page.... not much has changed There are always times in a persons life when change becomes essential and unavoidable. I have hit the wall on one of those times and indeed I can no longer avoid having to change. The thing is if I don't do this now I never will and that I cannot allow. Every day I make my plans like a good little girl promising...

De laatste dagen op Loodsdrcht, volgnde zomer gaan we zeilen bij de roggebotsluis. We gaan loosdrecht echt missen, onze prachtige 'Beloega' zo heet onze yacht, gaat volgende maand over naar de winterstalling waar we de hele winter aan haar kunnen knutselen, en oetsen tot dat ze weer blinkt. Vanwege de regenachtige zomer hebben we weinig gezeild dit jaar, volgend jaar beter.

small landscape
Lizzy Agatha

A cute little landscape only 30 by 40 cm, acrylic mixed media, built up in layers to create a rich underlying texture, yet finished with strong sure brushstrokes, thus keeping the immediacy and vibrancy that I like. I have used the brightest colours I dare. It is of course an abstract landscape depicting local scenery, one of my favourite spots, a local park called 'de kolk' 2017.

The Eclipse is nearly here Hold onto your hats, take care, get the right glasses, never look directly at full sunlight, Hold the moment, the time, the hour it takes This magical time That changes the vision of the planet Day becomes night All life is held in this moments grasp Even us knowing humans are awed We realize we are small animals living on a tiny planet, spinning round a sun, hurtling th...
cheese

How to stop eating cheese? Someone told me it is addictive...How can this be? What exactly is it in cheese that is addictive? So how to stop my addiction to cheese, it's hard when there are so many lovely varieties AND it is in everything like pizza or pasta or fondue, plus the humble cheese sandwich I'd be a vegan if it wasn't for cheese...

The most time consuming and irritating part of any blog is getting set up, all the endless circular mails and codes to get  the passwords just right, the names,  the endless forms to fill in, the annoying robot checks, and the security checks, and that's not counting the mistakes that, yes, I, as a human being make.  So after changing my password ten times, and trying to get the information I r...
