Today I am share the third of 5 paintings created on wooden disks.
Last year I bought five large round wooden disks from our local hardware shop. At the time I didn’t really have a plan, but I was also slightly enamoured with wreaths, and starting to follow the moon phases.
Earlier this year I found these disks hiding behind some canvases and decided it was time to create something with them.
I have already shared with here Crystal Wreath and Gilded Cage. (Crystal Wreath found her forever home just recently!)
Today I want to share with you Wandering Star.
Portishead was a band that defined my young adulthood and to this day I only have to listen to the open bars of their songs and I am transported to a different time.
During the creation of this painting I kept humming their song Wandering Star. (One of my favourites) and so this painting became Wandering Star!
W A N D E R I N G S T A R
Doubled up inside
Take a while to shed my grief
Always doubled up inside
Taunted, cruel
Wandering Stars, for whom it is reserved,
The blackness of darkness forever.
~Portishead
I would love to know what you think!!
From my whimsy world to yours!
