and there, by the sea one day, the little girl met
driftwood man.
he was shaped by salty water and wind and he had travelled a long way.
he was filled with stories, tales of shores near and far,
he told her about the secrets of the sea.
Mano presented us with a theme which tingles the imagination,
please take a look at this creative centepede's blog,
you'll find more driftwood there.
wishing you all a warm weekend

he may be a little grand for my own imagination, he is even scaring me a bit, seriously. but i'm impressed by his veins/muscle though.
ReplyDeleteunexpected, this!

Dear Renilde,
ReplyDeletefirst I thought of a skeleton, but the little girl seems to be fearless... Now I see, of course its a (huge) driftwood man!
Amazing the story, a fairytale, very well-narrated and painted by you.
Love
Ariane.
There's the seed of a lovely book there-no?
ReplyDeleteyour fairytale is so lovely. first I thought "the poor man", but when I read your words, there is a great magic and I'll meet him for to hear his stories. beautiful driftwood picture with great sky - I want to go denmark now...
ReplyDeletethank you for participation in this challenge! :-) mano

Do you know the driftwood sculptures made by Heather Jansch? Thats what I thought of, when I saw your lovely painting. It must be able, making such a person too, or not?
ReplyDeleteGreets, Katja
I think it's beautiful, very fascinating and dreamy! I love the colours and what a breautiful sky! I wish you a nice week and thank you for your comment!
ReplyDeleteYou must see these and maybe you will be inspired to build your driftwood man.

Renilde I can count the goosebumps this gives me on my arms and everywhere!!! I wish this were a storybook completely illustrated by you. This is magic to me...this painting...what it evokes in my own imagination. Driftwood Man has such a regal stance. Even though one can see through him -- to the ocean beyond, where he came from, he is not scary. Just regal. Gosh this is awesome. My hat is off to you, art friend!! Hugs, Norma, xo
ReplyDeleteI wonder what it would be like to meet a drift wood man on the beach...and I agree with Annamaria you are so ripe for a book of stories!!
ReplyDeleteyour drift wood man is so gorgeous. very eye catching :)
ReplyDeleteGreat match between the story and image! Bravo Renilde!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for sharing.

Have a nice week****

ReplyDeleteI love the little girl with driftwood man I can feel the wind whistling behind them and the sound of the waves beautiful!!!!
