Jack now sporting a divinely / devilish goatee and Jill always the dreamer, now sporting a resemblance / to the flower children of the sixties, a favourite era of mine…..This also / works rather well becoz aswe all know, after Jack fell down and broke his / crown, he fixed it up with vinegar and brown paper…since Jack is drawn on / brown paper, he won’t have to go too far for a plaster / l) trace over the briliant design with a black texta / m) colour in the brilliant design with whatever’s handy and stick stuff on when / drawing fails completely and you don’t know what else to do..also…when / all else seems to fail resort to those old gum rubbers with star and flower / stampings i made an aeon ago…yep…stamp, stamp, stamp.. works well! / n) to make the bucket…i had stuffed it up completely….so with nothing to lose / i poured ink on paper towel, then cut towel into bucket shape and / stamped it… / o) i used pastels and coloured faber castell pencils plus a heap of charcoal / and some acrylic paint in the mix…. a messy and fun process / p) play with it in photoshop!! a lot!!! / / Mounted Print / Jack and Jill at Twilight Prints and Cards

Amazingly there are 20 species of Magpie in the world. Not quite sure which I have painted here… looks more like an Australian magpie Many people consider them superstitious, they certainly have their place in folklore, some believe they bring good luck, others believe bad. I remember being played Rossini’s Thriving Magpie when I was quite young; it is said they have a panache for shiny, silvery things which they like to steal and hide. / Here the magpie has found a key! I wonder where it came from? I see him as a ‘Keeper of Secrets’. / The selected text comes from a traditional rhyme I was told as a child: One for sorrow, Two for joy, / Three for a girl, Four for a boy, / Five for Silver, Six for Gold / Seven for a secret never to be told This is an acrylic painting on canvas.

Time is like green meadows of the mind, / Every passing slowly changing / imperceptible to the eye. Time is how we gauge the way we occupy our lives, / Can I do it or must I pass it by, / do I really have the time? Nothing happens that we know of / Lest it happen in a time. / To go beyond it challenges the creative mind. It seems to take forever / Going from infancy to growing up. / Then it’s over in the twinkling of an eye. Looking back at what has been, / We call upon memories to share with friends. / Where did the time go that I spent with my life? This work is part of my entry into the Fractal Frenzy Challenge. I could not resist adding a poem inpspired by the image. Fractal digital art created with Apophysis fractal art program.

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod (Dutch Lullaby) / by Eugene Field (1850-1895) Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night / Sailed off in a wooden shoe—- / Sailed on a river of crystal light, / Into a sea of dew. / “Where are you going, and what do you wish?” / The old moon asked the three. / “We have come to fish for the herring fish / That live in this beautiful sea; / Nets of silver and gold have we!” / Said Wynken, / Blynken, / And Nod. The old moon laughed and sang a song, / As they rocked in the wooden shoe, / And the wind that sped them all night long / Ruffled the waves of dew. / The little stars were the herring fish / That lived in that beautiful sea-- / “Now cast your nets wherever you wish— / Never afeard are we”; / So cried the stars to the fishermen three: / Wynken, / Blynken, / And Nod. All night long their nets they threw / To the stars in the twinkling foam-- / Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe, / Bringing the fishermen home; / ‘T was all so pretty a sail it seemed / As if it could not be, / And some folks thought ‘t was a dream they ‘d dreamed / Of sailing that beautiful sea— / But I shall name you the fishermen three: / Wynken, / Blynken, / And Nod. Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes, / And Nod is a little head, / And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies / Is a wee one’s trundle-bed. / So shut your eyes while mother sings / Of wonderful sights that be, / And you shall see the beautiful things / As you rock in the misty sea, / Where the old shoe rocked the fishermen three: / Wynken, / Blynken, / And Nod.

Drawing and digital manipulation. / ‘Polly put the kettle on’ was published in 1797. The origin was the author was watching his children (3girls and 2 boys) play. He observed that when the girls wanted to play without the boys they would pretend to start a game of ‘tea party’.”Polly put the kettle on” and the daughter called Polly would put the toy kettle on! As soon as the brothers left Sukey(Susan) would take it off again! Their father was so amused that he set the words to music and published it as a nursery rhyme! I Think our modern version is Polly get the Tupperware! He he!

This was an entry I did for a prop contest at my friends Yahoo group. The idea was to have a spider (the chosen prop) somewhere in the image. My entry didn’t win… oddly enough.

Most people who have children or grandchildren are familiar with the Itsy Bitsy Spider song. When I spotted this very tiny spider (which I almost missed seeing altogether because it was so miniscule), I thought immediately of that childhood song. I took its picture and in PS, I placed the lyrics of the song right alongside it in remembrance of all the times I sang this with my children as they were growing up and am still singing it with my grandson who is now four. This may be a Mabel Orchard Spider, but I’m not sure. The field guides say it is 1/8 inch long. If anyone knows what kind of spider this is, I’d appreciate a word from you.
