Pink petals

Daily Draw: Green Witch Tarot, Six of Wands


Hmm what's going on here? A moral victory over a military one? Not all those faces look wholeheartedly happy for this guy (even his own smile looks a bit fixed) and we can't see the soldiers' expression at all. Are they there of their own volition or were they ordered to be. I wonder if the rider chose his fancy costume which contrasts so with the plain dress of the observers or if he was told to wear it. 

For now I am going to focus on the sparrow and the pink petals. Time to get out in the garden among the birds with my paints.

  1. Hmm... this does look more like a personal victory than a group one. I didn't know you painted - what a great creative outlet! Hope you have an enjoyable day in the garden.

    1. I am an absolute beginner painter. If it hadn't been for my ego in the past - expecting to paint well without any practice or instruction - I would be further on now! On the upside I'm glad I have moved past the belief that if I am not immediately good at something it is not worth doing :) I hope you have an enjoyable Sunday too.

  2. It definitely looks like that parade is for show. Impressions can be lasting. Let them think everything is going well. Think it and then believe it.

    1. There is a lot to be said for lipstick, a good bag and shoes and the odd private power pose :)
