that moon doesn't half beg for attention. it is hiding the subtitle laguna, which could also be read as lacuna, the wild orchard of space i've been living in. funny how over the months of these drawing challenges, i have been into round shapes {here, here and here}. i wonder what moon will be shining where we're heading this weekend, besides all of those over on patrice's. ... for now, you will find us getting....

... lost. that shouldn't be too hard, it seems any calle echoes the previous one, both in name and outlook. we're two minutes off piazza san marco. we may gently phase passers-by from our sunny {?} outside spot, sipping a recommended spritz. we shall be sniffing lagoony air, and quaffing ristrettos till our lips burst. both my hands dangling in the eau-de-canal, bell will mind the camera, NOT letting it drop outside the gondola, thank you very much. this is what we hope for. but plans, hand on ♥, we have not. besides getting lost. see you on the other side of travel! {or in other words: next week} tally-ho & aaaah-hoooo...

I love your drawing of the little gondola man in the moon dear Woolfy.
ReplyDeleteI will think of you trailing your hands in the waters of the canal, sipping vino and having an utterly lovely, well deserved holiday.
Buone vacanze!

yes to getting lost in Venice - I've actually done it, and it's magical!
ReplyDeleteyour moon drawing is possibly my favorite, there's something so beautiful about its simplicity: few colors, round shapes, a man lost in a laguna on the moon. Gorgeous.
see you on the other side of travel :)
Lucky you are!!! I love Venice... and your pictures of this beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time in Venice! Whenever I look up in the sky at the moon I'll think of you being lost and enjoying every minute of it. Love you man in the moon..............xo Carole
ReplyDeleteyour moon, a soft place full of dreams and adventures, the gentle rocking of a gondola.
ReplyDeleteyou getting lost in Venice will, i'm sure, bring us a treasure of pictures i'm already looking forward to. enjoy dear Woolfie, xx
je post maakte me blij.
Your moon is just wonderful. I love the little man in it. It feels so very friendly! I hope you have a good time in venice, enjoy getting lost!
ReplyDeleteI love your moon laguna and its perfectly perfect circle – so much creativity… I affectionately love your man in the moon sailing in a moonlit lagoon. The asterisk like shapes within the letters reminds me of a Zen expression: “No snowflake ever falls in the wrong place.”
ReplyDeleteI’ve never been to Venice, but feel as if I will experience an even lovelier version through the eyes of Nadine.

the moon too.
if i had to choose...
it would be the moon after all. but a spritz in the moonlight is not bad either!
Oh wow, so lucky you to go and see the moon over Venice!
ReplyDeleteIf you really get lost, call me, I'll come and search through the alleys to find you! ;o)

P.S.: In case you should get lost with some pretty Italian gondolier, stay there! We'll all come and visit you for sure! ;o)))
