Lovely prompt Tess. The picture speaks. And what a coincidence! just yesterday was looking up some of his paintings. Hope to post something this time. Cheers!
As I pondered what to write, I realized a piece I'd written earlier in this week, entitled "Disappearing" was serendipitously appropriate for today's Magpie image...
Hi, I looked up revenant and found some very interesting information. I hope this isn't too late--but I have added my link. Thanks for the prompt--I needed it!
Hello, would you please erase the comment by fodder4thought? It should a comment by either Emanita01 or fodder4writing. i will try to post it again, correctly. thanks and sorry for the bother.
I guess I got here a little slower than the speed of light.....seeing this painting....light hit me, and was the only way I could go with it....thank you Tess for another wonderful prompt! :-)
Finally. I cannot believe the timing of this prompt! We just visited the Farnsworth Museum, which has loads of Andrew Wyeth's paintings (though not this one), and once again, you tapped into something I had been thinking about. How do you do that, Tess? Thank you.

ReplyDeleteCheers!
Not sure if the link is working. Interesting painting. I have no idea what it may be about, but I wrote my tale, and now I will google The Revenant.

This strikes me as cold and calculating
ReplyDeleteThanks FB friend for this... have a great blessed week ahead guys!
ReplyDeleteHi Tess. I'm not sure if I got things well here, I didn't research anything on the painting, I just went on a go.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week everyone!

Interesting that the critics often said Wyeth was not that deep. I think making himself a walking ghost is not exactly surface stuff.
ReplyDeleteGreat prompt. I hope I've done it justice.
ReplyDeleteThis brought something icky out of my psyche - very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI've been following/watching for awhile, but this is my first time trying. Great image!
ReplyDeleteNumber 13 with a ghost tale.

Thanks again for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI went totally dark with this one...something I just never do...channeling Poe perhaps...
ReplyDeleteI was compelled by this day to leave my first post - I will return with a piece for today's image...

ReplyDeleteWell, ghosts R me, but this one was a tad different, so ta very much!
ReplyDeleteNightmare stuff! LOL
ReplyDeleteTess,
ReplyDelete(The) Wyeth(s) paintings always press pass nostalgia and hit loneliness.
This one is typical by filling and emptying at the same time

I'm happy I can share with you what I wrote yesterday. Very apt for the image. Thanks, my friend, for providing a timeless portrait.
ReplyDeleteFinally I can see the pictures in the Posts again! So I can at last participate once again.
ReplyDeleteStrange and fascinating. Good choice for a prompt, and my response is up on Irish Gumbo. Really enjoyed this one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great painting. :)

ReplyDeleteVery spooky, I really liked this one, thanks
ReplyDeleteI looked out more of Wyeth's paintings in Google Images. Thanks for the push, Tess, towards this cool,slightly eerie painter.
ReplyDeleteHave always loved the feel of his works. Thanks Tess for offering such an inspirational piece.
ReplyDeleteI love Wyeth's mostly monochromes. I actually tried something a little different...I think! Thanks, Tess.
ReplyDeleteJust wonderful, Tess. I can't wait to read all of these later tonight with a glass of wine. You know just how to challenge us.
ReplyDeleteAlways a surprise! Think I'm be different this week! jane jones Chiccoreal
ReplyDeleteThree generations of Wyeth men, each a great artist in his own right ... I'm glad you chose Andrew. He is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteIt is deathly white! I played to it! Thanks for a good prompt!

The painting gives you the feeling of an unfinished masterpiece, however cliched it sounds..

Happy Blogging!!
