Description This is a piece about inspiration, imagination, and how it can be found in the most unexpected of places at the most unexpected of times. It might be a touch obvious, but while doing this I had in mind J.M. Barrie and his Peter Pan stories. I like to think that all artists possess the ability to see pirate ships flying across the moon if they keep their eyes (and hearts) open enough. Stock used for this piece comes from =Falln-Stock for Mr. Barrie, ~ehtele-stock for the pirate ship, and sxc for the background.

Peter Pan is one of the most thought provoking stories. How you captured this is so true to the story itself. I applaude your demonstration to pull us into the legends of peter pans adventures. Bravo my illustrious beauty.

Beautiful piece. I love the concept and execution. And I'm a big fan of tall ships whether in the sea or the sky. There always seems to be such heart and depth to your work.

Sweet ! Gives a whole new meaning to the word Spaceship. (To be honest those ships I see when I close my eyes looks more like the Enterprice )

great piece!! and yes... perhaps Mr. Barrie saw Captain Hook's ship on a night just like that... thx for sharing your art

the capacity to dream is one of the things that should never be lost... it's always good to remeber it, don't you think?

wolfmorphine In reply to Hawkmistress [2006-07-10 17:28:09 +0000 UTC]

That's what I would like to think, too. I remember after first reading Peter Pan for the first time as a child, I would check for pirate ships in the sky almost every night. Sometimes I still do.

A great piece. Imagination, It's so obvious that it's what we all need, but some like yourself have more than others.
I've been diving into ehtele-stock too, great aren't they?

Oh my gosh! They are! My fiance ~sethmetoyer and I were both in there yesterday afternoon and must have downloaded her entire gallery between the two of us. Her account is just what I needed.

this mr. Berrie reminds me of Willy Wonka (which was also played by Johnny Depp in Tim Burton's movies). Maybe mr. Wonka might also appear in Neverland? As far as the idea goes anything is left to imagination, so he might?
Anyways, I just love those swirl star thingies o n the sky. ^^ I just maybe wouldn't let them go over the boat (left lower corner) And I reeeally like colour scheme you've picked for this piece. Good job!

wolfmorphine In reply to LeaSmith [2006-07-10 17:40:14 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, my boyfriend thinks that I must have subconsciously given Mr. Barrie a purple coat in this because, as he can tell you, I love the Johnny Depp portrayal of Willy Wonka and watch the DVD constantly. Then there's the fact that Barrie kind of looks like Johnny in my head now because of Finding Neverland.
