    i look at this wonderful painting, full of stories (and threads), and then i read your just as intriguing two lines, explaining your painting! now i don't honestly know what i find more beguiling.
    she is beautiful, renilde. so, so ernest and such a deep gaze. the web enhances her direct stare.

  2. Renilde,
    First of all, I was sorry not to join this week. If there's a chance I come up with something I'll let you know.
    Thanks for the invitation!
    And your mysterious painting in lovely sepia tones is beyond wonderful. The web adds delicacy, layers, and time to the story. There is so much to see here and my mind's eye takes it even further!
    I love this theme!

  7. such a beautiful painting Renilde her gaze is hypnotic and the small snippet of story offers endless scenarios of what could be. The skill in this painting is fine. The palette of colours used are restrained and subdued.

    I like this artwork alot Renilde. Ive posted mine which is completely different to this. I love the diversity these challenges bring.

    Thanks for the great theme Renilde

    Have a wonderful weekend yourself.

    Helen :)

  10. Dear Renilde,
    it feels like a real story.
    Your lines... sad and real.
    Your portrait deep, showing the past.
    The time...

    Sorry, I'm late. Finally I come up with my spider/web in theis world wide web.
    Thank you very much for this theme. It has been a very surprising one to me.

    Love
    Ariane.

  11. Renilde, for me this was one of the most enjoyable themes we have had. Don't you love how there are so many differing 'takes' on a theme. Where the artistic bent takes one? I love this myself. I want to hear more about that shed. Oh the romance of it all. Gosh.
    Well your painting is haunting in a beautifully powerful way. Her eyes are enticing to say the least. She is very beautiful and she is beautifully painted. What a beauty of an art piece. Love this. Talk soon, Norma, xo

  13. Dear Renilde this is really a wonderful painting, I like the faded subtle colours it perfectly matches to the story - "only" a sentence and a painting - together the beginning of a romantic story about different lifes woven together - very inspirational!
