these are all shots on the island of cebu...Pedro took us in his fishing boat...about an hour from santa catalina, panama...a wondrous RIDE and wondrous day on the island!
exposed palm tree roots, when the tide was out
(all the photos can be enlarged)
it was such fun examining all things caught in the roots
if BOATS could talk, eh?...
these two children, were one of my fondest delights on our trip.
this little girl was using the back of the boat for a sand box for a long time...then along came her brother...they played forever, then...the little boy dragged a huge log to the back of the boat, placing it strategically like an outboard motor, gave orders to his little sister, who then jumped into the front of the boat...brother revved up the engine and she pretended to hold on tight...he softly spouted new orders and she threw an anchor over the left side of the boat...then her brother gave added orders...she pulled in anchor, flung (with gusto) it over the right side of the boat into the pretend brink...she turned around, said something, they smiled then laughed at one another...as i sat in the distance with a smile in my heart!
fishing boats that are used daily...along with a couple of beach buzzards!

ReplyDeleteGreat photos and of course: I love your painting!!
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing artist! I am just returning to my art after 15 yrs of teaching. I am at the beginning but loving it.
ReplyDeleteI just had the best time looking at these last two posts I have been back and forth at least 6 times and loving that painting so much of the pastel person, woman with the bird. And the fabric collage is also just the sort of thing that draws me to look and look plus,,,,,go and do.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are grand as I have never been to such a place so I look long. I think photos that are personal like that have such a draw as compared to a magazine or book.
I hope your having a great weekend of whatever it is that moves you.
