Geranium Haibun⤴

from

July weather is unpredictable, from sweltering heatwaves to torrential rain. I take my chances where I can and step outside to enjoy my garden. At the moment my geraniums are glorious – shaded from the worst of the heat by the forsythia above, spreading out across the garden. Today they are shining in the sun.

On a sunny day
Flowwers turn their faces up
Basking in the light

Let’s Eat Grandma⤴

from

A great TDC today:

We’ve all heard of Lynn Truss’s Eats, Shoots and Leaves and are probably familiar with the pictorial representations that accompany it.

As Lynn says, commas (and other punctuation marks) do make a difference. Choose your favourite grammatical faux pax and create a visual representation of it.

I decided to take the unpunctuated “Let’s Eat Grandma” and doodle a shocked old lady.  Here she is.

Grandma, shocked that her grandchildren can’t use punctuation.

Hexapencil⤴

Today’s TDC is to design a pencil:

Design and draw your own pencil. It doesn’t have to be a standard No. 2 or anything like that. Give it a unique exterior design or give it 3 contact points. You decide!

Here’s mine – a six pointed pencil so I can draw from 6 directions at once.
