T stands for.... Kitty dreams of swimming

Hola Corazones,

Espero que estéis tod@s bien. Hoy hace un buen día por aquí, está nublado por momentos, un corre un aire fresco y apetecible. Desde ayer lunes podemos salir un poco más que antes, pero yo no salgo, no hay prisa,  y tengo la suerte de que mi hijo va a comprar y compramos online también. No hay que arriesgarse, puesto que aún no hay tratamiento ni vacuna contra el Covid-19. Mejor quedarse en casa, siempre que se pueda.

Hoy es martes, y ya sabéis que los martes me tomo un té o café con Bleubeard & Elizabeth , de Altered Book Lover, y la maravillosa pandilla del T-gang. Hoy en particular, me he tomado un café con galletas.  Y os enseño una tarjeta, que seguro le va a gustar a Bleubeard, puesto que  hay un gato. 🐈🐈🐈🐈. Os invito a visitar su magnífico blog, porque está lleno de bellísimo Arte.
--------------------------------------------------------

I hope you are all well. Today it´s a good day around here, it´s cloudy sometimes, and a fresh and appetizing air runs. Since yesterday, Monday, we can go out a little more than before, but I don´t go our, there is no hurry, and I am lucky that my son is going to buy, and we buy online too. There is no risk, since there is still notreatment or vaccine against Covid-19. Better to stay home, whenever it´s possible.

Today it´s Tuesday, and you know that on Tuesday I have a tea or coffee with Bleubeard & Elizabeth, from Altered Book Lover, and the wonderful T-party gang. Today in particular, I have had a coffee with cookies.  And I show you a card, which Bleubeard will surely love, since there is a cat  🐈🐈🐈🐈. I invite you to visit his magnificent blog, because it´s full of Wonderful Art.
Happy T-day !

He creado esta tarjeta usando acuarelas de varios colores sobre un papel de acuarela de 300 g, y una vez seco he dibujado la palmera y el gatito con un rotulador permanente negro. Es muy sencilla y ofrece multitud de posibilidades.

I have created this card using several colours of  watercolour painting, on 300 g watercolour paper, and once dry, I have drawn the palm tree and the kitten with a black permanent marker.  It is very simple and offers many possibilities.

El   INDALO, símbolo de Almería
The INDALO, symbol of Almería
Mi foto

El Indalo es el símbolo más emblemático de Almería.  Está cargado de magia, y puede que represente un dios o un cazador que sostiene un arco. Su origen procede de una série de pinturas rupestres que datan del neolítico, unos 6500/7000 años de antigüedad, y que se encuentran en la Cueva de los Letreros, Vélez-Blanco, Almería.
Fue descubierto en 1868 por el arqueólogo Manuel de Góngora y Martínez. Se cree que protege de los males infinitos o de las tormentas. Esta cueva fue declarada monumento Histórico Nacional en 1924, y más recientemente Patrimonio de la Humanidad.

The Indalo is the most emblematic symbol of Almería. It´s loaded with magic, and may represent a god or a hunter holding a bow. Its origin comes from a series of cave paintings  dated back to the Neolithic, some 6500/7000 years old, and that are found in the Cueva de Los Letreros, Vélez-Blanco, Almería. It was discovered in 1868 by the archeologist Manuel de Góngora y Martínez. It is believed to protect against infinite evils or storms. This cave was declared a National Historic Monument in 1924, and more recently a World Heritage Site.

  8. Happy T day CAty. And I also want to say thanks for being such a great hostess for us at Try It On Tuesday for the last challenge. I love that painting too. I think that kitty has a really nice view. I wonder if he's run off if I came and sat next to him. Perhaps he is friendly and would like a little pat. Hope you are well. Hugs-Erika

  14. Que atardecer más bonito en el fondo que has hecho me encanta, y esa palmera y el gatito son los elementos necesarios para hacerla perfecta.

    Me alegra leer que todos estáis bien, yo sigo saliendo de paseo desde la semana pasada y ayer con el día tan tormentoso que tuvimos el parque estaba vacío, era una maravilla. Como siempre gracias por compartir las fotos de tus paseos y de tu ciudad me encanta. Besitos, María.

  20. Oh Caty, I am SO sorry I'm late visiting. I got really sick and just couldn't continue on Tuesday. I'm sorry for not being a very good host.

    I love your card. The background is gorgeous and the kitty is adorable. Beautiful scene, too.

    I was quite impressed with your Indalo. What a great, almost magical symbol of your city. LOVELY photos of your city walks, too.

    Enjoyed your beautiful tea cup and tea at Christmas. What a great way to bring back a fun time and I'm sure great memories, too. Thanks for sharing your art, your photos, and your tea with us for T this week. Again, I'm sorry I was late visiting.
