sailing in aqua waters
under
a big fat moon
last month I made this sailboat for my grandson's birthday
I thought that hanging by a window
or from the ceiling
it might inspire wonder filled
daydreams
This week Michael chose: boat
to inspire our art
I thought that good timing having just made a sailboat.
Visit Michael's to find out who else is sharing art!

Bonjour chère amie,
ReplyDeleteMagnifique ! J'adore... Une incitation aux voyages, aux rêves... et puis il y a la petite chanson que me chantait ma grand-mère : "Maman les p'tits bateaux"...Maman les p'tits bateaux
Qui vont sur l'eau
Ont-ils des jambes?
Mais oui, mon gros bêta
S'ils n'en avaient pas
Ils ne march'raient pas.
Allant droit devant eux
Ils font le tour du monde
Mais comme la terre est ronde
Ils reviennent chez eux.
Va quand tu seras grand
Tu sauras comment faire
Pour lutter vaillamment
Contre la mer et le vent.
Gros bisous 🌸
The picture is great I love such motifs!
ReplyDeleteSweetly the boat for the grandson you have tinkered great!
Happy day
Elke
The fabric boat looks great I am sure Grandson will imagine many adventures sailing the 7 seas. The painting is sailing along nicely as well. Great sea swirls
ReplyDeleteYour pieces are fantastic Tammie, make me realize how much I love boats.
ReplyDeleteYou MADE the sailboat? Amazing. And I love the painting. It has such charm. It reminds me of being at the lake (though truth be told, we see more jet skis than sailboats there, but I'd rather see the sails!)
ReplyDeleteVery soft and beautiful. Wonderful use of colors.
ReplyDeleteLove your fabric sailboat and your watercolours are lovely and soft and fluid.
ReplyDeleteLinda,
ReplyDeleteA lovely peaceful scene even with the waves - the sailboat seems secure. And isn't it interesting you just made a fabric sailboat?
Blessings,

ReplyDeleteThe fabric sailboat is also lovely - great idea for a nursery decoration.
You are very talented Tammie.

Linda, your painting is so pretty and magical too. And I love the fabric boat. What a wonderful gift for your grandson. I do hope it sparks his imagination.
ReplyDeleteoh, this is lovely. I like the little curve at the end of the boat. & that handmade boat is so cute, I could imagine myself there in that little corner, taking a nap, if I was a fairy or tiny being.
ReplyDeletetwo very lovely take on boats.
have a lovely day.
Was admiring your boat painting, then... Bonus! a darling cloth boat as well! Love them both.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fine idea to make a sailboatgift for a grandson! And WHAT a beautiful handmade sailboat! Also the watercolour is very nice and friendly, full of day-and-night-dreams for grandsons and grandmas and....
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I just love that fabric sail boat... and the painted one too. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, Tammie. I love how you really capture the texture of your watercolor and paper. Love the bunting off the side of your boat. :)
ReplyDeleteYour painted boat on a painted ocean is such a lovely illustration. The boat is tossing gently on the waves.
ReplyDeleteI do like your real boat too with its little flags. What a lovely gift for your grandson.
Lovely work, Tammie, both in your watercolour and fabric pieces.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift. I can only imagine the sailboat will bring wonderful dreams to your grandson.
