"The wind is the singer who sang the first song" This is 16"x21" Charcoal illustration on Canson Mi-Teintes paper. This is the fifth drawing of the Ireland series. Even though none of the reference pics or model were from Ireland, the inspiration came to me while visiting Ireland. Standing outside one night while visiting Malahide Ireland, I noticed how quiet and peaceful the night times were in Ireland. I looked up into the sky to notice drifting clouds and a full October moon. The only sound that I heard was the gentle wisping of the wind. I memory of my childhood came over me of my parents listening to music one evening as the often did. The lyrics to John Denver's Windsong ran through my mind. A song I haven't heard for over 30 years and to still remember the lyrics so clearly, seemed like a sign. *Original for Sale Framed - Inquiries go to http://www.giftsinnboonsboro.com/ or Contact Natoma Vargason at [email protected]
