I have a shed-load of stuff that I could share for #SundayPixHandmade but I’m a bit under the weather today (lack of sleep/food/drugs) so I may do some tomorrow evening if I can muster the bluster.
Beach scene. There's a curved line dug into the sand, and a drawn hand above it. A small wave is crashing towards the drawing. The late day sun gilds the sand in red-gold.

Mizzly canal path
I have no craft skills, & no patience for knitting etc. (not like Mum & Sis!).
Painting has always been my thing. I’m trying to do a daily sky throughout Feb (but might have to miss the odd one).
This is today’s mizzly canal path. I’ll take a better pic in daylight tomorrow.
