"Message In A Bottle" fantasy composite by Robin Griggs Wood
Not the exact idea of this particular image, but I thought it would be fun to challenge you with the same challenge I gave my Arcanum apprentices ... to add something in the comments based on the following scenario:
You're walking along a beach. There, in near distance, sits the ubiquitous washed-ashore bottle. You're not close enough to it yet to see it clearly, but as you walk closer, your mind meanders over to the classical story of someone on a long distant island or sinking ship tossing it into the water with a message inside; a last, desperate plea for help or a note of enduring love to a faithful companion.
At last you arrive …
and find that there is, indeed, a curled piece of paper tucked inside the sealed bottle. It's a love letter, with the full name of the person to whom it's addressed and last known location.
How will you react: with action or indifference?
Don't read anyone else's until you've added your comment … ;o7
(I've got Sting singing in my head now ... ;o7)

Action...no question.
ReplyDeleteAmazing artwork!
Robin Griggs Wood Superb image, Robin! I would immediately contact the person for whom the letter is intended! No doubt about that whatsoever! :-)
ReplyDeleteWe are still working on it....Will let you know at the end of the year. ;)
ReplyDeleteLauri Novak -- high fives and thanks, dear!
ReplyDeleteJasbir S. Randhawa -- high fives to you, too! ... thank you, my friend!
ReplyDeleteAction, definetly would track down the person whom it belongs to;) awsome piece
ReplyDeleteJake Johnson -- heheh ... true that! ... ;o7
ReplyDeleteThe picture tells its story very powerfully.
ReplyDeleteIf I were able, I'd take a trip and try to deliver the bottle and message. Otherwise, I'd have to try to contact them.
ReplyDeleteFabulous!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful work Robin Griggs Wood
ReplyDeleteFantastic & Surreal Photos
Very nice image Robin Griggs Wood
ReplyDeleteI'd try to find them and send it to them.
ReplyDeleteWow. This is wonderful Robin Griggs Wood
ReplyDeleteI would try to find the person. I love adventures and I love stories. :D
ReplyDeleteAction! I would bring it to its destined recipient. :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo!
ReplyDeleteI would do my best to contact the person the message was for.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous picture.
If I were one of these children I would immediately take it to my father. He has enough romance and imagination to want to find the person whose name is in the bottle. We would find it a great adventure. Maybe he would get a detective or the police to help. I get butterflies in my stomach just thinking of the excitement these children feel at this discovery! Thanks Robin Griggs Wood for creating and sharing this wonderful photo!
ReplyDeleteWonderful work!
ReplyDeleteI would seek, out the recipient. I would try to continue it's passage.
ReplyDeleteI would send it to that address , awesome image!
ReplyDeleteI would have to find the person it was intended for ... Hopefully I could deliver it person, but at least get it to them somehow.
ReplyDeleteA genuine message in a bottle is something too unique. I would keep it un a safe place and let the person it was intented for kown I have it by any possible mean : last known address, social networks, etc.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, great work ! And now I have Sting singing in my head too ;-)
Only one Word. Wow! !!*♡♡♡☆
ReplyDeleteWell action if I could, but you do not tell us in what time- period the last known address is. If in the past wouldn't it be amazing to time travel and deliver in person. Still it would be an amazing adventure to trace the family and still deliver the message in person to the ancestors of the love letter. My mind is off and running in many different avenues, thanks Robin Griggs Wood
ReplyDeleteAction. Seeing how it is Saturday I would hire one of those seagulls that works for the Express Seagull Saturday Post :)
ReplyDeleteI would like to think that I would take action to get the letter to the person that it is intended for.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a post, can I read the other posts now?
I would want the person to whom it was sent to receive it. I would send it to the last known location with an explanation of how I found it.
ReplyDeleteI would try to find the person named and send the letter to her/him.
ReplyDeleteI would try to find the person and deliver it. What a great adventure! Love the image!!!!

ReplyDeleteWonderful image Robin. I wonder what the message is?
ReplyDeleteHi Juan Carlos Gonzalez-Najera!! Always nice to see you, my ol' friend ... ;o)). The boys were indeed holding a message, but I never got to find out what it was, darn it!
