"Autumn tides wash over me
clear, crisp, cool.
They hold a magical promise
of all that will be cleansed & renewed.
I hold stars in my hand, & the moon in my heart
It is time to remember the truth.
Raise my eyes to a secret sky
where my stars & moon come alive."
~J.Guthrie~
A 'work in progress' inspired by Waterhouse's 'Miranda the tempest'.
It's always been a favourite of mine, & has always reminded me of a local cove. And a few
weeks ago I got an opportunity to take some rather gorgeous reference photos. I'm looking forward to getting some colour on this one! :)
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, & a happy Samhain / Halloween!

This is looking great Julia, i cant wait to see your piece finished either. It's always good to have visited a place to be able to add the feeling when wanting to paint it also isn't it. x
Beautiful words and picture. Looking forward to seeing it finished. :) x

April, Nimh was 'killing' the seaweed...before she ran madly across the beach with it. lol!
