Melkerull and Mermaid Magisk

I am nestled back in bonny England, after blissful Norske springing adventures with a Pocahontas and a Pixie... all my pumpkin carriages are tingling to voyage there again. My heart is still nested there and my feet are hovering far above the meadow grass...



The 'Circus' exhibition at The Green Tree Gallery was star-spangled, and my poetry book is half pisked together. Now we are dowsing the barn in ocean~gleam for 'Coast'... I have been buried in books ever since touching English shores, voyaging into the wonder~woven worlds of Medieval, Renaissance, and Persian art, discovering magical tales of sirens and mermaids and nixies, and gathering seaspray to sketch the characters I will weave into finished paintings... seahorse are my new favourite creature.



Wednesday wonder~wishes and winks to you.

Such a lovely post - it took me back to the magic that I experienced in green, fresh, soaring mountains, fiord filled Norway.

I grew up with a Marine Biologist grandfather who kept a small tank of sea horses for my grandmother. I remember one called Manawar - I think. I was only 7 or so, must ask mum. Anyway, I was mesmerized by the lovely, gliding creatures, quite magical!

Imagining your journeys with Medieval to Persian art... sirens and mermaids.... sounds inspiring! Look forward to your painted weavings.
