evokes a feeling or represents English literature. In many of the gothic novels I have
read such as Wuthering Heights, Rebecca, Jane Eyre,to name a few, there is usually a full moon,
a rocky outcrop, a craggy coastline, stormy seas and a dark mysterious old house sitting on a hill.
This is my entry into IA this week. It was fun. To see the other entries go here.
Now back to my book.

Great wave drawing and this one really reminds me of Rebecca... which is one of my favourites... it was a fun challenge wasn't it...xx
ReplyDeleteYou captured the Gothic novels perfectly with this painting! I can almost hear the waves crashing against the rocky shore and feel the wind blowing my hair (well, maybe not MY hair!)
ReplyDeleteOh my! This is so dreamy, so magical! Excellent job, Gemma! Oh to draw/paint on this level!
ReplyDeleteGemma this is just perfect - in fact, I'm sure I can see Heathcliff and Cathy being chased by Dracula (on a visit to Northumbria) - and there goes Jane Eyre getting all wet and feverish as she learns the truth about Mr Rochester...
ReplyDeleteMany of the English novels were set in places like you represented in this piece. You did true justice to this theme. I love it, and your painting, too.
ReplyDeleteI love your big wave under the full moon :).
ReplyDeleteStay inspired!
