“My childhood in Corfu shaped my life. If I had the craft of Merlin, I would give every child the gift of my childhood.”

― Gerald Durrell, My Family and Other Animals

This enchanting villa on Corfu, with its magnificent seafront location, served as the family home in the popular series The Durells.

Happy people built their inner world,
Unhappy people blame their outer world.

My intention with this portrait was to show the power of being one with yourself.

“Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,

For I would ride with you upon the wind,

Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,

And dance upon the mountains like a flame.”

― William Butler Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire

That's my version of John Singer Sargent's portrait in charcoal of William Butler Yeats. Again I've used the 12 color-set from Rockwell Canada. They dry a bit pale, but the color range and the granulation is wonderful.

Hier bei uns in der Lüneburger Heide gibt es viele Seen, oft im Wald versteckt. Ich habe immer die kleinen bunten Wochenendhäuschen geliebt, die an ihnen liegen. Sie wirken, als seien nicht von unserer Welt.

There are many lakes here in the Lüneburg Heath, often hidden in the forest. I've always loved the small, colorful weekend cottages beside these lakes. They seem enchanted as if they're from outside our world.

 die meeres/gabe 

du gabst mir meer

ich gab dir meine träume

du brachtest mich an den rand der welt

und darüber hinaus ich schaffte uns neue räume 

wo nur unsere liebe es ist die zählt

kein sturm keine flut können uns trennen

meerisch verbunden durch brandung gestählt

fest ineinander verschlungen doch frei

eins im dem wissen wir haben uns gewählt
