written in ink

I am still playing with feathers. I wish I had wings or a tail like a mermaid. :-) This one's about fairy tales and how our lives are written in ink.
Feathers are I think from a blackbird (a cat may have run off with the rest of it). A couple of stones and a snail shell from my garden. A creative spark....

where the sky touches the sea

There is something special about places where two elements or two opposites meet. They are a places where anything can happen, where anything is possible, they are magic and romantic, they may even transform us. I've always had a thing for mermaids. Maybe one day I will become a mermaid.

Longing

The words are from Inkheart by Cornelia Funke and they are so true for me. I love the sea and it always fills me with longing to watch the waves, but in some magic way the sea satisfies the longing as much as it creates it.

I love creating these surreal images. They all just fall into place and colouring in is ever so soothing... anyway, I thought the two ladies should have male company. ;-)

The buildings and the hat/glasses can be found on Creative Market, the font is Justice by Dirt (the commercial version not the free version) :-)

the world in a leaf
A picture of a birch leaf mixed with a map of the world. Leaves travel the world on the wind... :-)

the magic of the leaf
I always felt leaves were magic - the way they begin from simple little buds and then the way they change their colour through the year and fall to the ground to make a rustling carpet of leaves to return on the tree the next spring. Wonderful.
