- When We Dance
- Today she said itToday she said it out loud. The words hung in the air, heavy and sad.
- Bring it back, bring it back, don’t take it away from me
- There’s a different kind of silence when you’re alone
- Isn’t it strange how things can change you?“You wonder how fast you’ll go when you hit the air. And oh, isn’t it strange how things can change you?”
wow joh! this is super! Really great atmosphere
I like it a lot
Wow! Beautiful! Reminds me of the illustrations in the original The Water Babies book, by Jessie Wilcox Smith or someone like that.
I loved that book as a child & you’ve captured its spirit beautifully!
Wow, this is very unsual (this century) and very beautiful! Especially, since I love fish!!!
How lovely!
thanks everybody

This is so beautiful.

Gorgeous!!!!! I feel as if I am swimming with them… this is magical!
Beautiful piece… feels very classical in an Arthur Rackham or Kai Neilsen kind of way. Just lovely.

I’d forgotten all about the waterbabies; this is great.
I feel so happy that you post your art with all these prompts, because I love seeing what you are creating! This is wonderful!!!
Johanna, those are some spectacular fish. I really like the wispy flow of everything.
sooo cute! i can’t decide which cheeks I want to pinch.
That is so sweet…
Breathless , thats what I am !!
Soooo beautiful Johanna !! Look at that baby , Adorable .
What a cool swimming baby! Wish I’d have learned to swim as a kid.
lovely piece
beautiful illustration – I love it!
What a beautiful, sweet piece. I could just keep looking at it. Great work.
wow, wow, wow! I love this so much!
This piece is beautiful! I love how the child flows perfectly with the fish.
Oh wow!
I love when art awakens my imagination!
Wow! Very beautiful, very imaginative! I like how those fishes swim follow the baby! Great work!
wow. (i think you’ve gotten plenty of those so far, but “wow” is the first thing that came to mind, truly.) such a beautiful piece. the lush, but subtle color really work so well.
I forgot about the water babies too, lovely illustration.
I’ve only just started participating in inspire me thursday and illustration friday. The thought had not occurred to me to double the difficulty and try to combine both themes into one piece! Well done for the melding of the two.
thank you so much, everyone
This is such a poetic piece+ love the fishes!
thanks suana
i loved the book too! thanks for making it come alive again
thanks for visiting, ujwala
Lovely. It reminds me of Charles Kingsley, the Water babies.
Best wishes
I love your painting of the baby, the anonymous baby amongst the fishes. I was listening to claude debussy the piece that reminds me so much of walt disney for some reason, and i came across the image. its so placid and so beautiful its got a georgeous resonance to it. simple and subtle the tones when put together don’t hurt me too much, i mean they sit well to let me appreciate the subject.
cheers
