    Happy Birthday. My son's birthday was Aug. 15th, he turned 48 years old.
    The blackberries have long been finished here. The birds made a mess with them, as they do every year. I always hated picking blackberry; because, it was hot work in the sun, I would get cuts from the thorns, I would get bitten and stung, I had to keep an eye out for snakes, I always got ticks and chiggers on me, and I could never pick enough to please my mother.
    You have such beautiful views everywhere you take us. Jack always has a wonderful time. Jack is such a good boy. Your painting is beautiful. Two of those berries look ready to pick. Thank you for this video.

      Oh your berry picking description struck a chord with me, I used to think it would be a lovely day out, picking brambles into a bucket with my cousins for my gran to make jam out of, and a picnic, but those thorns and the pesky midgies on a hot day soon made it feel like hard work 😂

    • @shewalksshepaints
      @shewalksshepaints  2 года назад +1

      Ahhh yes picking them was always a difficult task! I was the smallest one in the family so would always be asked to pick raspberries, brambles and gooseberries…but I hated the thorns and all the bugs 😫

    The painting is fantastic. Always amazing to see how the details really make the subject go from flat to three dimensional and superb. Lovely.
    Thanks for sharing.

    Awww once again you have shown how awesome Scotland is. When the countryside is parched like that it looks exactly like Southern Oregon, except our mountains are much higher. Hehe. We also have the brambles and elder trees. Both make very good wine! Jack is still being Jack, gotta love a good pup. The painting is almost good enough to eat! Thank you, Sarah, Willie and Jack. 🥰❤️

    I wondered why North Berwick Law felt so familiar, and it was because, just 11 days ago, another RUclipsr I follow walked this path with his cat, Nala. His name is Dean, and his channel is 1Bike1World. Still, it was great to see it through the eyes of another person. It’s such a spectacular view, and an interesting site, historically.
    Your painting’s subject was a lovely one…and your final work looked like it was plucked off the branch at that moment. I loved the berry that went from blushing pink to pale green. It was beautifully blended through the berry’s colours. And, each ripe berry looked good enough to eat.👏🤩

    • @shewalksshepaints
      @shewalksshepaints  2 года назад

      Ah that’s cool! It’s getting my famous haha! It’s a good thing Nala wasn’t there at the same time as us though - Jack would have chased her around the hill 😅

    I loved this painting. When you started to add the darker color to the berries, it looked like they were sitting there on top of the paper. They just popped right off the page! It has inspired me to plant some blackberries in my back yard for the birds. We also have a blueberry bush for the birds. I love watching them enjoy the berries. I'm glad you had a happy birthday. My daughter's birthday is the 20th of August, so I will remember. 😁🎂

    @marydegenkolb9603 2 года назад

    I just figured out that Jack Spaniel is not a water spaniel, but a dogfish. We have a spot here in North Georgia called Lookout Mountain. From that hill top, you can see several states. It too was a desired hill during our Civil War. But it pales in comparison to that Law. And can you imagine the size of the whale that replica was made from? So beautiful. Thank you for again, taking us along. The blackberries did not do well here this year. Ours show in the spring and early summer. But with the heat here well over 100 degrees F, they dried up in only a couple of days. But again, these look so real and I see the reflection of the red ones on the black ripe ones. Amazing.

    What a surprise to have your video up a day early. Did I miss an announcement? Is this the new day? Either way I'll still be watching. 😉 That looked like a pretty steep walk this time, I was out of breath! What a view though! The whale bone history bit was very interesting; I'm really glad they kept up the tradition, even if it a replica now. Jack looked so cute all wet and covered in sand. I don't know what kind of stick it was that he found this time but it looked like he found his own whale bone. 🤭 The blackberries came out so good and so realistic they looked as though you could eat them. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure, I loved it. ☺

    Lovely surprise to find your video up. Here in NE Florida US I picked blackberries (wild) from my wildflower garden bed all thru April, then cut them back almost to the ground so that my dog ( A Yorkie who needs a haircut) doesn't get tangled in them and they tend to fruit better for me. I hurt thinking of the thorns on those huge brambles, I get enough from mine. Awesome scenery as always, thanks Sarah, Willie and Jack. Are you going to be posting on Saturdays now?
