It was before the storm Xynthia, which blew in the night of last saturday.The little boat felt away.
It was the conjunction of a very strong tide and a heavy wind (160km/h)which devastated especially the Vendee, 150 km further on, where 50 poor people died at home, drawned.
We luckily were spared, having no water in our house, as some neighbours had.
Glad you are safe, Sylviane. Hope you see your boat again!
ReplyDeleteBelle peinture. Quelle tristesse... ce qui vient de se produire.
ReplyDeletethank, Claire & Martine, et bienvenue sur mon blog, Martine, quelle surprise...
ReplyDeleteWow. What a contrast the events are with the peace in the painting.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to know you are well.
I like the composition with distinct simply defined masses of colour. The cabin, the waiting boat, the light, suggest happy hours to come.
ReplyDeleteThe painting is very peaceful when contrasted with the event!
ReplyDeleteLovely painting. Glad that you are ok.
thank you, everybody, for your kind wishes.
