A veil of moonlight on her lovely face...
I love reading between the lines when these two write to each other. Look at that... he writes so clearly until we get to the sling or is it fling? I fear Y's intentions are not too honorable, but then can we blame him. X is a bit of a tease and made him so jealous when she went to Cuba.
He taunts her with his dreams of an oriental princess, yet still reaches out a hand if she would but cross the oceans to him. I think he might be a terrible flirt!
This lady is a mixture of technique. She is watercolour drips, pencil sketch and PhotoShop texture. She oozes passion and temptation for our weary traveller. Will he succomb or does his heart already belong to the girl from the valleys?
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then please check out the Postcard Challenge and the full back story of the intriguing correspondece between X and Y.
Also posting for Paint Party Friday.

This is one of my absolute favourites of all time... I love this page lady and love the story as well...I loved visiting Raffles years ago and so sorry that it was full of middle aged men in Grey suits... they were mercifully absent when I visited...xx

ReplyDeleteAll of your post cards are a tease. They make me want to read all about each and every life. What a clever idea it was to have this challenge. The water color wash is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteLovely creation and great story ~ thanks, namaste, ^_^
ReplyDeleteyep - this man seems to be at his most flirtatious when he is at a safe distance from any kind of relationship reality... if she is wise she will let him play his game but not get involved, what kind of idiot sends a woman a picture of another beautiful woman?
ReplyDeletegeez louise, she can do better than that!
love the drippy drippy style this week

Sounds so interesting and intriguing and the face on the card looks like she's had a few not-so-innocent nights in Havana. lol She's beautiful! Wish I could return to Cuba (my birthplace) someday...I think I'd look like this woman and start writing postcards myself!
