Juliette's Parasol and Other adventures


JULIET'S PARASOL




Parasols and Umbrellas
have always intrigued me...
They have often apeared in my dreaming world..



Even loved ones across the veil
are carrying them..




I have an Umbrella that used to belong to my Grandmother
and it means alot to me...
It has been a constant symbol in my waking and dreaming world..
passing through worlds and veils with the magic of a parasol!


I love Parasols and Umbrellas..

They seem Magical to me
...Protective..Comforting
Mysterious
*

I Hope you enjoyed meeting Juliet's Magical Parasol...
and her Blue Spirit-Cat!
*
I started her a couple days ago..
She has a vintage-y vibe to her..
I feel like i know her perhaps from another time..
The color palette and patterns
were unusual for me....but fun and expressive!


 I am joining the beautiful and talented artist
Renilde
and her
art challenge this wkd
for Parasol and Umbrella
*
Thankyou Renilde!


Wishing you the Magic
of Umbrellas and Parasols
Wishing you many New adventures
and Travels in all Dimensions..
and in your Dreams...
and waking world


The Dreaming Palette
*
Also Joining Paint Party Friday



Wishing you a Creative wkd
and magical week ahead...
Victoria

Thankyou for your thoughtful visits
and sparkles..

Hi Victoria!
You couldn't have chosen a better title for your painting. Juliette intrigues me. She seems all dressed up for cold weather, I like her mitains and the white spots here and there suggesting snow.
I would love to possess an umbrella such as Juliette's.
This is a beautiful composition. Hugs.

Anne said...

Wonderful paintings, magical parasols! <3

Heather said...

i love the woman in red with the birds and parasol.
these are truly beautiful. i agree parasols are wonderful - happy friday!

renilde said...

Your parasols make me think of a field of forget-me-nots...nothing more lovely on a clear April day and something to dream of in February, you made me just do that. Lovely!
Thanks for joining us dear, x

Carolyn Dube said...

I agree wholeheartedly about parasols- they remind me of such a romantic era! Loving all the details in your paintings!

La Abela said...

True, this lady of the umbrella use colors more bright and cheerful does perhaps your are in very good time in life?. I really like also the last has a lot of movement.

Netty said...

So loving Juliet and her magic parasol, I wonder what adventures it will take her on. Loving the other two paintings as well. I once saw a lady at Ascot with a parasol hat would you believe.......now theres a thought....lol Have a great weekend Victoria, hugs Annette x

Jennibellie said...

I adore all of these especially the different colours - you are usually so warm, but this is wonderful. Your paintings remind me of Renoir - how's that for a compliment!!

EVA said...

I love Juliet! Such gorgeous colours and (finally!) a hint of a smile (Yay!). Also love the detail of her stockings - very cool!

Tammie Lee said...

Victoria, this piece is gorgeous. I love your colors and textures and Juliet is a beauty with her impressionistic and lovely umbrella!

Christine said...

you've taken us back in time with your beautiful parasols!

Faye said...

Your new paintings and umbrella are beautiful. I love the elegance of that parasol that Juliet is holding. She looks ready to step into some exciting new adventure, although perhaps just a mite hesitant. Most of us hesitate, at least a little, before stepping into the unknown. Your colors are vibrant and gorgeous. I had a parasol when I was very young. i remember the great aunt who gave it to me warned me that it was for sun, not rain.

Mother of Twenty Daughter's said...

Wow, these are all my favourites! Just love them all :)

KAT said...

you have a wonderful flowy feel to your art it is so wonderful!

Annabelle said...

Juliet is stunning as is her Blue -Spirit cat.
Adore her parasol and matching sofa. Lovely work as usual Victoria.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

I've always had a Mary Poppins fetish, myself.

Lori Saul said...

Your paintings take me to another place- a magical place filled with story and meaning. This takes me to Paris in the Spring with all the time in the world for pleasure and dreams!

That cute white cat does it for me with the Lady holding the Umbrella.
Your art is magical.

Sophia said...

She is SO amazing. Her parasol is stunning. Look at the detail and how amazingly beautiful it is. Nice job again. :)

demie said...

gorgeous, romantic umbrellas/parasol. you have a way with colors : )

Mother of Twenty Daughter's said...

Thank you so much <3

Ariane Reichardt said...

Dear Victoria,
love your flowery parasols! Lucky ladies who wearing them...
Thanks!
x Ariane.

♥ w o o l f ♥ said...

vintagey, too right!
i am also reminded of such films as THE WINGS OF A DOVE, BRIGHT STAR even; even if no umbrella/parasol is in sight...
it is the thought, or the feel of the parasol, that counts...
great, abundant colour palette too!
n♥

Gloria said...

Hi Kiki. Oh my goodness. I love your ladies. Juliet is just so beautiful. I get lost in your paintings when I come here. It feels as though one gets transported to another place and time. Awesome work as always and I still can't believe you are self-taught. It's just amazing what you do. Thank you. Have a great weekend amiga.

Hagar said...

Dear Victoria,

I've had this post open on my computer for hours meaning to come back and leave my comment.....I've spent all day getting ready for a dinner party, but I wanted to make sure I told you how much I love these women with their parasols...so magical and wonderful. I LOVE these!

Faerie Moon Creations said...

Oh how very gorgeous Juliet is!!!! And her spirit cat. This painting is so reminiscent of the Impressionist period. I love the bright colors and the look of happiness on this sweet lady's face. Parasols ARE beautiful things, indeed. :) So magical, Victoria!
