North Otago landscape by maggiemae

North Otago landscape

This picture is the closest I've got to actually painting a picture. I took a photo of the scene, processed it into a watercolour in be funky then painted some of the original photo back into it.

Three good things:
1. The last day of the year was spent in a holiday mode, reading in the sun and biking round town.
2. What shall we have for our last breakfast?, I asked - sausages and eggs was the joking reply. I prepared sausage,eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms and lashings of toast in 20 minutes!
3. Wasn't hungry for the rest of the day!
Love what you did with this, Maggie! Vert creative.
