This is Caspar David Friedrich’s “The Wanderer Above A Sea Of Fog” (1818). It is the piece inspiring tyle Imitating art with Salazar at 14 shades of grey.

Oh how gorgeous this painting is! I can imagine being that man, breathing in the salty, fresh, cold air. Spume flying everywhere, feeling and thinking on the power of God's creation! I'd love to stand in front of the original!

This is Olivia Palermo who is the Inspiration outfit with the lovely Twobirds on Inspiration Monday. Who, I think, is wearing an outfit that could have been inspired by this painting. It's one of those serendipitous Inspiration Monday/Style Imitating Art moments.
No, idea where on earth I am finding a link? Ok, maybe I am the link!

Ivory-coloured lace dress (Primark)- Ms Palermo has similar- the painting has lots of spray, waves and white: plus sea water looks very lacy.
Ginger cardigan (MaxC)- Miss Palermo wears a orangy blazer. The man in the painting has ginger hair.
Turquoise shoes (??): Like Miss Palermo. The sea has some bluey hues.
Statement necklace (Accessorize): Like Miss Palermo has. More sea shades Woven ribbon belt in blue shades: Sea inspiration to pull the extraneous turquoise elements together..
Bare legs: Not on your nelly!!!! Black tights to represent the darker lower half of the painting.
Purple coat (Debenhams): To represent the man in the middle (Ok, so no Twobirds link here!)
So have I convinced you?????
You can visit the links above to see how everyone else interpreted both inspirations.

I had a lovely concert on Saturday- we played one of my favourite symphonies, Brahms' 4th symphony. He really writes the most wonderful flute parts: check out this gorgeous flute solo I had the wonderful privilege of playing (as you can see, this isn't me! He plays for the Berlin Philharmonic!) It's only a 1minute extract.
The whole symphony is an utter joy to perform! If you can, have a listen to the rest, it's beautiful!
Our conductor gives me the most gorgeous flute parts to play! In the next concert, I get to play one of the most famous flute solos in all classical repertoire, L'apres midi d'un faun and all sorts of other gorgeous Frenchness!!! So exciting!
I can never quite believe how fortunate I am to be part of such beauty- a real blessing in my life!
I am also very fortunate becuase today was my termly Performance Management lesson observation and I had a reception class, obsvered by the head of Foundation Stage and happily she abolutely loved the lesson and gave me a Grade 1!!!! Yippeee!!!
