TAKE A WORD


WEATHER OR NOT

This week, in honour of much needed rain pouring down over Perth, Western Oz recently, we have UMBRELLA as our word for inspiration.  My mind turned to 'raining cats and dogs' which made me wonder if they said that in Oz or whether it rained kangaroos and wallabies instead .... and wouldn't it be much less fuss all round if we had a tap (faucet) we could turn on and off for rain as needed .... Oz could get more and we could have much, much, much, much less.   My Muse gave me a steely stare and said that was silly and had me create this instead.

Credit to NumbBumm for the lovely cloud formations, and Sharing Tubes for most of the rest, whilst the blended backgrounds are my own.

Thank you  for looking.

That rain must be pretty toxic! I think I'd prefer to fly away with the geese. Wonderful whimsical art full of imagination and glorious style!xx
