drawing challenge NEW THEME | IMAGE

it's been a while, our weekend meetings across the globe. have we been distracted by an overwhelming surge of images? on many blogs i am reading of similar concern, to the point of an inevitable where are we now question.  


in a sense i'm not phased about the dynamics of the image. is this because i perceive the image rather as a story, consisting of many layers, not unlike poetry? i'm sure this is also where the attraction lies, images speaking volumes.

in michael cunningham's SPECIMEN DAYS a luminescent bowl, surviving time and age in three separate parts to the novel, impressed me as such a strong image of the power of being. i am convinced both imagery and word are allies rather than they are competitors. 

so, what in effect does the image mean to you? in what way has it entered your life, and where do you think it will lead you, us? no fuss either, you can answer in images... ;-))) would love for you to participate. ♥ 

 DRAWING CHALLENGE date : sat-sun 15-16/08/15. simply leave your message, and you will be added to our list... and thank you. will be there : veronica, jo, ariane, bee, patrice, miss herzfrisch, stefanie, tammie, katrin, norma, leena, carole, rachel, eric, roberto, ...
