The Three Muses: Angels / Enkelit

Kolmen Muusan ensimmäinen haaste tälle vuodelle on "Enkelit". Pienet linnutkin tarvitsevat mielestäni suojelusenkeleitä, sillä niiden maailma on täynnä vaaroja. Niinpä yritän tässä altsukirjani aukeamassa kuvitella, minkälaisia lunnunpoikasten suojelusenkelit voisivat olla. - Peipposenpoikasten valokuvat ovat Jaakko Julkusen ottamia (julkaistu Helsingin Sanomissa 4.6.2008), kolibrit ovat jostain mainoskuvasta, siivet Itkupilliltä.

The Three Muses' first challenge for this year is "Angels". I think that little birds need guardian angels, too, because their world is full of dangers. On this spread from my altered book I try to imagine what the baby birds' guardian angels could look like. - The photos of the baby birds are by Jaakko Julkunen (published in the newspaper Helsingin Sanomat on 4.6.2008), the colibris are from some ad image, the wings are from Itkupilli.

  2. Voi ei, tämä on aivan ihana! Todella kaunis kokonaisuus. Pidän sinun tyylistäsi, siinä on jotain herkkää ja koskettavaa. Ja koskettava tuo ajatus, että linnutkin tarvitsevat suojelusenkelinsä.

  4. I love to open your blog each week Eila to see what wonders you have created in your altered book and I am never disappointed. This is inspired my friend and very timely with all the bad snowy weather, those little birds do need a guardian angel.

  5. I live in a place which is never very cold and there is no snow or even frost. I often wonder how birds survive the harsh winters in countries where it is freezing and icy. Your altered book is a treasure for us all to see. Your artwork is exquisite.

  9. A wonderful thought about birds and their angels. Don't you sometimes feel like a baby bird yourself, all vulnerable and helpless? Oh, angels have SO much to do! This is a beautiful entry. Thank you for sharing!
