drawing challenge: playing card(s)








card game
nostalgia
memories of summer vacations on the boat
cold and rainy and my brother and I playing a card game
in homage to the past and to us
hearts for him, of course, and diamonds - squares - for me
because of the straight lines that I love

for more playing cards and card games see our host Ariane


drawing challenge: speelkaart(en)

kaartspel
nostalgie
herinneringen aan zomervakanties op de boot
koud en regenachtig en mijn broer en ik die een kaartspel spelen
als hommage aan toen en aan ons
harten voor hem, natuurlijk, en ruiten voor mij
vanwege de rechte lijnen waar ik van hou

  7. Love your cards they are so touching and your story reminds me on holidays with my brother, we used to play cards too. We were playing about my sweets (his were gone already) and I didn't even realise that I could only lose, because his entry was none - or I didn't mind. So thank you for sharing your childhood story and bringing mine back to me.
    Wonderful drawings!
    xx Barbara

  11. It is heartwarming to see those two lovely children playing together. And to see three different ages of the children (or it seems so); three different clothing sets; and three different hair cuts. These two are a team!!! Well...playing for their own 'win' I imagine, but still a team of childhood memory making. I enjoyed seeing the photographs Patrice, and your playing card design is awesome. This was a special post. Thanks, N. xo

  13. what beautiful crafting and a fitting homage.
    seeing the photos of you and your brother remind me of me and mine.
    though my bro is a bit older...
    childhood is such a precious time. so fragile.

    your dahlia with that enormous pink face makes me smile, as do all of those dahlias.
    "every flower has a face" some one once told me. thats what i thought when you showed us that
    giant!
    have a great day.
