Wood Painting

It's the school holiday at the moment and every mum knows how tricky it is to achieve anything while the children are on holiday ...
Nous sommes en periode de vacances scolaires en ce moment et toutes les mamans savent a quel point il est difficile d'effectuer quoi que ce soit lorsque les enfants sont en vacances ...

I did manage, though, to get started with painting on wood. My former next-door neighbour had some interesting wood slats at the very back of his garden, what he was calling junk, what I saw as a treasure ! They had been left to face the hardship of the weather for a very long time and I had to sand them to see what the true colour of the wood was.
J'ai cependant reussi a me mettre a la peinture sur bois. Mon ancien voisin avait des planches de bois interessantes au fin fond de son jardin, ce qu'il appelait des ordures, ce qui representait un tresor a mes yeux ! Ces planches ont ete abandonnees au bon vouloir des intemperies pendant longtemps et il m'a fallu les poncer pour reveler leur couleur d'origine.

Of course, it had to be a little goose !
Bien sur, il fallait que ce soit une petite oie !
