Deep in the magic of the woods, I touched and felt.
I need a top up of that feeling soon. Starting to wilt.
oooohhhhh… I love this.
Thank you Holly!
Wow, that’s gorgeous.
Thank you Rosie. It is a special place
It’s a lovely drawing too
You’ve really captured something here – love it. The trees are almost dancing. 🙂
Yes, I really see it now! Arms aloft, making an arch, spiralling backwards. It could be a Busby Berkeley number.
🙂 🙂 🙂
Dancing trees is correct. It looks like a portal. (K)
I should have walked through, who knows where I’d be now!
Gorgeous
Crazy title
There’s a blue in the middle that reminded me of my school tie, bizarre, but when you are flailing around for a title…
You always choose enigmatic titles.
I’ve asked before I think, but did you ever read Iain M Banks’ Culture novels? If so, you will see the connection.
No I haven’t, do you recommend? I only have one rule; the title should have nothing to do with the image, unless it does.
That works!
Sure, if you like good sci fi. He was a master. He died a year or so ago, said to his wife he hoped she would do him the honour of becoming his widow. I liked that. His fiction is on a grand scale, populated by vast artificial intelligences called Minds. These take names as bizarre as your titles. Player of Games, and Inversions, are probably my favourites. I’m going to revisit them this holiday I think.
I will give them a look at some point. I’ve just spent 1&1/2 hours of precious time painting a picture I can’t even bear to look at. How dispiriting
I absolutely love this!
I can hear birds and feel and smell the thick forest musk.
That’s great! The place was full of life
What is this done with? Guache?
Acrylic mostly, the trunks are printed on oil paint and there’s some water soluble crayon in there too
This is great – riotous and uplifting!
I love the trees are ‘riotous’!
