Scotland - Tactile Notebooks Day 1

Day 1 of Tactile Notebooks and the Written Word with Sandra Brownlee began with

 the giving and receiving of gifts,

 a bit of show and tell,

 a story of sorts,

 
and a stroll through Newburgh

 to visit the River Tay

 where sage was lit

 as part of a smudging ceremony.

 The mud marks caught my eye

 as did

 a few rusty bits.

 The afternoon found Christine and I 

 returning to the River Tay

 to dip our brushes in the mud.





Quite a memorable first day.
How was yours?

  1. i see you caught that odd-looking extra-terrestrial, watering a flying saucer seed in the hope it would magically grow into a navigable craft....

    1. I did. After all, how often does one see an extra-terrestrial attempting to grow a flying saucer...or get to hear the mystical sounds produced in the watering process? Many thanks for allowing the eavesdropping..
