Drawing challenge #48: UMBRELLA


Some poise of body catch my eye... a fortiori when two are similar but different...


 I follow my golden thread... and find her



 'Maman'



Its amazing... 
standing directly under 'Maman' it looks like under an umbrella with its crown and frame...
I feel really protected and the blowing wind isn't cold.


Good visored one can fly!


'Ariadne Poppins' 
is a blend of Ariadne from the Greek mythology and Mary Poppins
Based on the UMBRELLA theme of lovely Renilde she's using it as a means of transportation... to do good. 

I create her of cuttings from magazines and one ball of thread on canvas. For more UMRELLAs or PARASOLs please fly to dear Renilde's stroke of the brush.

      dear Hagar,
      'to be pregnant' with a theme open my mind for very different images. Taking a photo of Mr Beckham at the station was a little bit embarrassing situation... hahaha.

    1. Hello lovely lady Lilli.
      Big, black old umbrellas make me think of India... a friend told me that the umbrellas are standing everywhere and when its rain, each one can take one. After rain they leave them right on that place.

  7. now! you have combined two of my favorite ladies!
    Ariadne who helped Theseus, and that stupid boy left her as a gift to Dionysus, on his way back to Athens - surely she had more fun with him that she would ever have with Theseus ; ) but you know what I mean...AND Mary Poppins! I grew up with both those ladies... I can even say: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious ; ) - no not really...

    your art work is one of a kind dear Ariane! lots of love d

  11. There is always that softness in your creations, typical Ariane and it always touches me.
    I have been intrigued by Louise Bourgeois' work since i first saw it, quite a lady.
    Thanks Ariane, great post! xx
