For Seven Days of Shooting. Today starts a week of the study of “instruments”, with the usual Sunday theme of “Geometry”.

 

This photo fits both Wednesday and Thursday Challenges: the instruments are a bit worn and it is in BW.

Je poursuis mes dessins dans l'expo sur les instruments de musique. Cette fois-ci gros plan sur certains des outils du luthier.

Even in evil, that dark cloud which hangs over the creation, we discern rays of light and hope, and gradually come to see in suffering and temptation proofs and instruments of the sublimest purposes of wisdom and love.

If you use this, link here or leave a small copy in the comments -- I'd like to see what you make.

they taught me at school that it's a violin, so I was taken aback when a friend of mine told me about her fiddle lessons etc - I wasn't sure what instrument she was talking about. only later, when I asked her what is the difference between the two, she responded: 'a name!'

I've painted for as long as I can remember.

I believe if you are a creative it is NEVER just in one field...

I photographed one of my paintings, 60x50, and inserted it; I was so surprised when it actually matched the colours on my palette!

I painted it from memory, a tour of Bretagne.

I had been most impressed with the rough rocky coasts, the often emerald waters, the ‘wildness’ of the place.

 

Some of the brushes I used belonged to my grandfather and father.

 

The painting is actually done completely with pallet-knife, my fave tool.

I painted with oils like this here, watercolours but I made hundreds of soft pastels.

I don't paint anymore now; I might again, one day, who knows?

My most creative period was when I had a lot of turmoil in my life, anger, sadness, disappointment and love.

I painted furiously day and night!

When that was gone, the photography kicked in again ad eventually took over.

I believe you have to be in a specific ‘state of mind’, plus, I must admit that over the years photography has satisfied my creative needs more and more.

 

PERMEKE'S PALETTE

Constant Permeke (1886 - 1952)

 

Biography: Born in Antwerp. Belgium.

Died Ostend.

 

Constant Permeke was a leading Expressionist painter in his home country during the period between World War I and World War II.

In 1914, he was severely injured and sent to England for recovery. Permeke returned to Belgium five years later, eventually building a home and studio in Jabbeke. His paintings normally depicted the aspects of life in a coastal town and portraits of fisherman.

He was a contemporary of Picasso.

After 1935, Permeke began creating sculpture as well.

 

Permeke's work was an extension of his personality. A giant, he worked in large studios on large canvases; even his drawings are large. His character was uncouth and quick-tempered yet gentle and generous.

He was direct and single-minded.

 

When he built his house in Jabbeke, just outside Bruges, it was very avant-garde.

It is now a permanent museum for his work.

 

On a visit, in his beautiful studio (atelier), the family have left it untouched, the huge unfinished painting on the easel; I photographed his palette with brushes, preserved in a glass tabletop display.

 

With all the reflections not the easiest photo to take, I included a small photo of one of his paintings, for those who are not familiar with his work.

Balancing Instruments of Power in a Multi-Polar World

The shamisen is a three-stringed Japanese traditional musical instrument and played with a plectrum. Tsugaru is the area around Hirosaki. The tsugaru shamisen refers to the instrument itself and the way to play shamisen.

In Barsana we found this guy, waiting for the next customer, a player in a wedding band perhaps?

From Sept. to Oct. 2016 there was an exposition of lampion installation at the so-called Donauinsel.

Photos taken for work of students at Madison Elementary School receiving new band instruments, a gift of the Des Moines Public Schools Foundation. The school, a participant in the federal Turnaround Arts program, has gone from now students in band two years ago to more than 20 and growing today.

This is my Grandfather's german accordian...and that's a picture of him playing it. The picture is dated November 1965, but he passed in April 1962. The photograph was developed after his death so I'm not sure when it was actually taken.

Inside and outside.

 

I love light and often I see lanterns old or new that I like.

How dark our nights would be without the brightness of light!

 

We can be grateful for so many things.

How many 'creatives' did it take to come to this result? LOL

 

With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
