Not so much a walk on the wild side this morning as a stroll on the art side.
Yes, it's Arts Fest weekend at Chiltern Open Air Museum.
 |
| The Madwoman was quite taken by these ... |
 |
| We watched artists at work ... |
 |
| Icons posing with icons ... (yes, that is real gold leaf and real lapis) |
 |
| Meanwhile, over at the forge, leaves were being made. No, not feet: they are in focus and the leaf isn't, purely due to the Madwoman's inability to point a camera with any degree of competence. Regular visitors to our blog will be accustomed to this by now. |
 |
| Also in the forge were these Raku hares and animals. The Madwoman was smitten by these too. |
 |
| And then the Madwoman bought a lino cut. We think it might be Santa Paws. |
 |
| And in Arborfield Barn there was a chance to have a go yourself ... |
 |
| ... so we did. Pawprints on virgin canvas. And then, exhausted by our artistic endeavours we went home for a well earned snooze. |

Gorgeous art! And is that your Madwoman looking gorgeous herself in a grey (such a fine wippitty colour!) cardy?
No, afraid not Joan. The Madwoman is neither gorgeous not a wearer or cardies, grey or any other colour. She is the one behind the camera :-)
One of these days they'll invent a paw-friendly camera, and then what larks!
Having met the Madwoman in person, I can tell you that she is quite lovely in every way, whatever those whippets say. And has added to her wonderful collection of curious and beautiful things, I see.
