As I was working on sketches for IF this weekend, I couldn't get away from the concept of "beneath the sea", until it finally turned into "beneath the pier".
Beautiful work, this is a great idea, there is so much going on around the pillars of a pier! I have also a blog award waiting for you on my blog, your work is fantastic!
This is si sweet, I am teaching myself watercolours at the moment, and would love to try to emulate this little scene in watercolour, just for my own practice, would this be permissable? I would of course, credit you as the artist.
I enjoyed "Beneath" and a couple others and used them to illustrate a poem from my morning prayer/meditation ...
The Grace of Presence
my boat (The Grace) my book written on the swells out beyond the shore
I’m writing my own book the book of my life walking exploring wonder wandering out from God’s book of Love written being written increasingly in and out through my own heart mind spirit by feet, hands, head and heart as I’m graced with joy explored and shared
each new pier each pillar planted beneath the water each new boating adventure taken slowly with oar and sail
I am an art teacher who loves to draw and paint, as well as illustrate for children. I also enjoy printmaking---especially block prints. Whatever I do as an artist, I have to remind myself---no pressure---it all starts by just putting pencil to paper.
This is adorable. I love the hair dipping into the water and the curious fishes checking it out.

ReplyDeleteThe Grace of Presence
my boat (The Grace)
my book written on the swells
out beyond the shore
I’m writing my own book
the book of my life
walking
exploring
wonder wandering
out from God’s book of Love
written
being written
increasingly
in and out through my own heart
mind
spirit
by feet, hands, head and heart
as I’m graced
with joy explored and shared
each new pier
each pillar planted beneath the water
each new boating adventure
taken slowly
with oar
and sail
each
a race
a joy
a discovery
