She Leaps (fillip)

leaping with spring

enlivens one's spirit

~

I wanted to join a new (to me) group of artists

the prompt is: Fillip

there are many meanings:

enliven, flip, excites, stimulates

flick, spur,  and so on....

I was going to draw a fairy flipping through the air

but when i sat to draw.... 

it was as if the fairy played a joke on me,

I totally forgot my original idea!

you see there just is no controlling what a fairy wants to do!

if she must leap, then leap she must ;-)

but i can play and flip the art ;-)

two meanings:

flip and enliven

Tree Spirits

the wind shouted to the trees
fire is coming with this breeze
be mindful of your dying stance
for that will be your very last
then you'll stand just like that
a guardian looking over the land

a friend showed me a tree spirit

then i noticed many more

long ago, 1988 a fire raged through this land

leaving these mighty beings behind

Springs Butterflies

drawing whatever comes to mind

enjoying springs butterflies

didn't mean for the animal in the art to be this pup; Lucy
but seeing as i was around her a lot at the time.... she might have snuck in ;-)

Lovely day to you

Inner Stillness, Inner Life

resting

lightly

sweetly

within

calm waters

give rise to peace

Blessed Beltane

as Beltane is upon us

the half way mark between spring equinox and summer solstice

this painting came to life

a man and his kin bear

most likely because the bears around here have woken

they now walk  the earth with us

daily i think of them

~

Lovely Spring to you ~

Watercolors

learning

playing

exploring possibilities

of watery paint

a new journey

 

two very different styles

the first i drew with masking fluid, waited for it to dry and filled in the spaces with watercolor

the second was painted...
