A Painting in Progress - Vine Leaves and Zell

Hello Everybody,
Had to go to Zell this morning to the Bank and whatever - a lovely, sunny day and we decided to have a glass of wine on the way back.....



Unfortunately, the place we chose was having it's 'Ruhetag', which means 'No Wine Today' - it was a shame as it as the perfect day for a wine by the River. All the bars and hotels around here, have a 'Ruhetag' - a quiet day, a day off once day a week (always the same day, but different days for different hotels) - and this can sometimes be a bit unfortunate as there can be six days of bad weather, then on the good day, when there's business to be had, it's the day off..... Got a nice photo anyhow...... I love these half-timbered houses....

Got the vine-leaves done in my painting this afternoon - I made them a bit more spikey and smaller than real vine-leaves would be, but the tendrils are curling around the Stars (well, one of them) - so that's good enough for meself.


The Star formation is The Plough, it's not to scale and more than likely not in the right position, but it's my favourite Constellation and I think this is where it fits best.

The weather was hot and sunny here today, but the evenings are getting cold. Can we really be thinking about winter already......
Tschüss?
