Spring Sunday in Sydney

The first weekend of Spring in Sydney and lovely walk on Sunday afternoon.
I took some photographs of the picturesque homes in our neighbourhood.

Oh....lovely! The roof tiles in the first house you photographed are such an unexpected blend of colors. I'm working on the exterior of a dollhouse, wanting it to look more like a real house/less like a toy, and have been noticing, really seeing details like tiles and bricks and the way the passing of time gives a home a personality. I think it's really important as a artist, that ability to see and to marvel and to appreciate.

Thanks for sharing these snapshots of you neighborhood...which from what I can see has an interesting and delightful personality!

Your pictures are so pretty and it looks sunny and warm. I'm actually a bit jealous of all of you on the other side of the world - I'd like another round of Spring this year ;-) Have a lovely week xo

With charming architectural details like that surrounding you in your neighborhood no wonder your work is always brimming with deliciousness!
