Ruins of the Grevenburg, Traben-Trarbach, Germany. Painted yesterday, from a photo taken last year. 10 minutes pencil, 10 minutes pen, and 20-30 minutes painting. Ran out of time to detail the town in the distance.
A watercolor painting depicts an ancient stone structure with arches overlooking a river, with a German flag hanging from the building and tents pitched along the riverbank.

Drawing practice. Trying to focus on process rather than product, although I’m actually quite pleased with this one.
A hand-drawn sketch of a symmetrical building with a central tower, arches, and decorative circular windows.

Exploring parts of Trier we haven’t been to before, including the (formerly) 20,000 seater arena.
A long, rectangular fountain with water spouts is surrounded by trees and pathways under a partly cloudy sky.

First mixed double pickleball tournament, and first tournament ever for Cecilia. Entered for 3.0, but admin error means we‘re bumped up into 3.5. Results so far: lost 0:11, lost 1:11.

Haven’t had many dry days yet in 2026. Took advantage of this one for a (muddy) walk.

Finished reading: Moonflower Murders: A Novel (Magpie Murders Book 2) by Anthony Horowitz 📚 Enjoyed this as much as the first in the series. Whether it’s these novels within novels, or the Hawthorn autofiction, I think he’s a clever writer.

Finished reading (a few weeks ago): Mr Penumbra’s 24-hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan 📚 Second or third reading of this, but not for a little while. Love Robin Sloane’s work.

This was the view from my hotel window in Madrid the other day. The former offices of the Spanish newspaper ABC. I still can’t get over the beauty of this scene: the colours, the plants gradually reclaiming the space, the sunlight reflecting off the hotel windows…
A sunlit, abandoned urban area features overgrown vegetation and dilapidated buildings with a clear blue sky overhead.

I’m always surprised that iOS doesn’t have built-in image resizing. So I made a shortcut.
The steps of a shortcut which receives an image, asks for a width and resizes, converts to jpeg at 85% quality, then either copies to the clipboard, saves to photos, or saves to files.
