Though I am from science background but one thing is for sure that arts brings happiness and takes the stress away. Keep up the good work
The predominant blue gives this a different feel, which corresponds to the advent of colder weather, as your text explains.
So glad you see it! Thank you, my friend.
Beautiful
Thank you! 🙏
Happy November, Marina! I adore this tree and don’t find the lines “harsh” in the least. (But who am I to quibble with the artist?) I find the blue color soothing in its taste of fluidity. November is a truly fluid month – transitional between seasons, between moods. Your monthly trees are always a delight. Keep ’em coming!
…and who am I to argue with you! I really don’t like adding descriptions to my paintings as I don’t wish to ‘guide’ in any way the viewer. I put these haiku-like texts just as an accompaniment. I wouldn’t pay too much attention to it! 😉
It is a fluid month and watching the changes is delightful.
Thank you so much for the encouragement, my dear friend! xoxoxoxo
I think your philosophy about descriptions of art is smart – who knows what any viewer “sees” in a painting or photograph – or even hears in a piece of music? (I also enjoy the music you post from your husband’s blog although I don’t comment much at all these days.) I also meant to remark about your recent zodiac posting but the days got away from me – I think it was stunning. I hope November brings goodness and kindness and health and happiness to you and yours! 🙏 🌷 🌞 🌟 🙏
Ah, thank you very much, Babsje!
All those I wish for you, my dear friend, wrapped in love. 😘💗🌷🌸💗
Aw you say the sweetest things, thank you! 🌙 🌟 🌞 xoxoxo

You have the best emojis – many more than my little android system offers. Have you ever thought about creating your own emojis? Perhaps selling them to a big company or even individual people through your usual art store? xoxoxo
A ha ha…. When I first started blogging I used to make fun of them. Gradually they’ve become a cute kind of dialogue code! With other friends too, wondered why so many symbols are missing, but haven’t thought of creating any. Time though has other plans! 😉 xoxoxoxo
I love this piece Marina. Really beautiful work…
Ah, thank you so much, my dear Tanyeno!
Enjoy a beautiful month! xo
This is sublime.
It may feel the oncoming winter, but I love this time of year.
This is an emotional painting for me (personal).
xoxoxo
Dahling, I’m doing a Dog post soon, and want to use Hera’s pic and link to your Pitties awareness post. I know you said I can use what I want, but I still check!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
What I said applies always for you dahling! No need to ask! Not to mention that Hera is overjoyed!
I’m with you on this time of year and watching as the skies change and nature shifting to another mood. So happy you like it, my sweet friend!
Sending baskets of love and hugs and….

Beautiful November tree that looks cold like our sudden drop in morning tempts. It was -8.3º C yesterday morning and this morning.
Thank you, Tim!
Brrrr…. that is cold! We’re still in the mid 20s! Sunday we reached 30C! So you know, I’m still trying my best with the rain clouds!
We had been in the 2 to 5C range in the mornings and into the high 20s low 30s C range in the afternoons until Tuesday morning, then boom -8 for the low and 8 for the high. It’s 15 C this afternoon.
I recall you saying about your huge range of temperatures. -8 to 15 … wow!
The tree is in mourning, weeping.
Ah yes… in a way. Or trying to resist the transition. Thank you, Liz! Enjoy a beautiful month!
You’re welcome, Marina. I hope you have a beautiful month as well.
🙏😌😘
November is a shitty, transitive month but you’ve made it beautiful with this gorgeous tree! Love it, CNL xoxoxo
Awww…. you are too kind dahling CNL!
Wishing you a beautiful November.
❤️😘❤️
I tell it like it is!! I wish for you as well, CNL 💖💞
😌❤️😘❤️🌹❤️😘❤️🤗❤️
Another most excellent Tree Marina… and November I feel will herald in some harsher lines into our view..
Autumn here in the England is late, as many trees still full of green leaves…
Much rain which your lines remind me of here, flooding also.. Which your blue reminds me of too…
But I also feel a ‘Flooding of information’ which will also come forth in November Marina…
Loved your painting..
Sending love and some November Hugs xx 🧡🍁🍂🍁🍂🧡
Ah, thank you, my dearest Sue!
Autumn is late here too. We’re in mid 20’s, temperature wise and not much rain.
I know the ‘Flooding of information’ you refer to.
Love to you and many hugs and wishes for a month of light.
🙏😘❤️
Lots of love ❤️ 🌟✨️🌟✨️ and light ✨️ ❤️
❤️✨❤️🌟❤️
So wonderfully written & painted, Marina. November for me is the start of winter & this month, a time to rest & renew. Here, the rain is washing away perhaps more than we would wish but the earth will be renewed & so there is always hope. 💚🙋♂️
Ah, how beautifully said, my friend!
Here’s to that renewal and hope.
Thank you very much, my dear Ashley for your kind words. 🙏💚
Art like this brings contemplative joy
A wonderful watercolor painting & poetry, dear Marina ~ wishing you a happy November, my friend 💖
Thank you so much, Phil! A wonderfully creative November to you, my friend! 🙏🌿
TY dear 😇
😌🙏
Nice colors for a grey month, just waiting and longing for the snow and December to arrive.
That is so nice to hear. Thank you so much JM! Enjoy a creative month!
I like your interpretation of transition. Happy November. Yamas!
Thank you, Frank!
Enjoy a wonderful month!
Yamas!
Nice work Marina. And November is one month closer to where I want to be.
Thank you very much, Neil. The way this year flies, it’ll be so very soon!
