"A warm smile is the universal language of kindness." - William Arthur Ward (American motivational writer).
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" for the 28th of December is "smiley in selective colour", a theme chosen because this is the last theme of this year. Where does the time go? Now this theme sounds fairly easy in comparison to some we have had this year, but whereas some of those more difficult themes have been easy for me, this one was far more challenging. Why? Because I don't have a single smiley in the house, and I have no idea where to get one from. So, I decided the only solution was to draw my own, which I did with my beloved Derwent Studio pencils. I did that on purpose partially because I needed a smiley, but also, because the theme is selective colour, I wanted to show the name of the colours I used in the photo in the black and white portion of the photo. I hope you like my choice for this week's theme, and that it makes you smile like my smiley!
As this is the last "Smile on Saturday" before the New Year, I should just like to take this opportunity to wish everyone in the group a very happy New Year. May the year ahead be filled with happiness and joy for you all.
Derwent, or the Derwent Cumberland Pencil Company, is a manufacturer of pencils and other stationery. The business began in 1832 in Cumberland under the name of Banks, Son & Co. The company was bought by Acco UK and became a brand of their product range.
It's the first time I have used selective colour but I think it works with this flower. Really bad day for weather but this flower really stood out overlooking the ocean.

The sun peaked through for about 30 seconds, on an otherwise drab day. I thought it was nice, the way the maples were lit up in the forground, adding contrast to the backdrop.

..........Snowberries….As children, we always said squabbles ( Knallerbsen) about it here. It always banged so nicely when you stepped on it. My father always threw the berries when I didn’t feel like running anymore 😃
The light was great, the weather was mild, but the air heat and turbulence still scrambled the details this many miles away.
Terraces at Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park, WY. One can't help but like like they are in another universe on another planet walking along here.
