Drawing / Wings



Birds on the wing in the summer cupboard, summer...giving me wings too.
Warm south wind, flowered breezes, gliding through the house are having that effect on me.




And the ancient dream; how would it feel to have wings, or is it just the longing, the magic of that dream that carries a greater value.
(acrylics on a lid of a wine box)




Just when she thought she had grasped it......
(gouache on paper)


The drawing challenge this week is hosted by the creative and free spirited Jasmin over at Jazzy two shoes .
Thank you Jasmin, x.

Wishing you all a happy weekend!

    Beautiful! to me this speaks of freedom, longing for the flying dream and how giddy it feels to take flight and yet natural like we really know somewhere inside us how to do it. Very inspiring post :)

    Often I dream of flying, and I love it, I never have wings.

    Wings take us places, wings usually mean we have birds eye view, we see farther if we are able to take flight.

    We believe angels have wings, they can sore in the heavens, among the stars.

    Great, great, photos and art! I'm loving it!

    Thank you, for sharing!

    First of all, I love that you have a "summer cupboard".
    Your paintings are so rich, in color, meaning, and thought. There is so much to read there.
    Thank you for sharing, as always.

    Dear Renilde,
    yes, your seagull is very pretty! Did you made it with plaster?
    A summer cupboard... giving me wings too... and even the pretty shells tells from the seaside.

    Your paintings exhales freedom, femaleness and mystery. Wonderful.

    Thank you so much for all your comments, i really do enjoy these drawing challenges, both the creative side of it as to look at all the wonderful work and visions everyone comes up with.

    Sweet Ariane, the seagulls in my cupboard are made (teared out) of very thick handmade paper, x

    hay un cuento de unas zapatillas rojas que al ponértelas no puedes dejar de bailar y tampoco puedes quitártelas.

    me encanta la perspectiva sin gravedad de esta última pintura
