Creative inspiration is everywhere! Sometimes you just have to look down to see it.
I’m at it again, trudging the pavement, finding inspiration in the most unlikely places, this time under my feet in the sand filled cracks on Weymouth’s esplanade during my daily walk this week.
The damp weather had pressed the sand blown from the beach into the cracks on the ground creating these wonderful expressive lines suggestive of primitive art…
I captured all kinds of creatures and characters with my iPhone from opera singers to judo players. I gave them titles so you can enjoy them too…. The photos have not been edited (except two, one where I removed a distracting corner of a bin and a second where I removed my feet).
Can you give me a title for the very last image in this gallery?
I’ve left the last one blank and I’d love to hear your ideas for titles.
I have some plans to take these even further artistically…I will keep you posted.
Next time you’re out for a walk, pay attention to the ground…you might find yourself on an unexpected journey and new inspiration for your art!
Looking forward to hearing your ideas for a title for the last image below!










It’s your turn. Can you think of a title for this photo? Please let me know in the comments below.

The boogie man rises again.
Love it Judy! I can certainly see your Boogie man rising here 🙂 Thank you!
Glacial Waterfall
Fire Eater
Broken Heart
So That’s It Then? (I can see a person with their arms in the air)
Ha! Ha! These are all great suggestions Oliver…I see you have an open and creative mind. My favourite is “So that’s it then?” Thank you.
I see a dog standing on his hind legs catching a ball. So I’d call it “Dog catches ball”
Wow Pennie…great imagination…I am getting glimpses of your image …but I’ll keep working on it. Thanks for your suggestion. 🙂
Too funny. To me it just jumps off the page. First thing you notice is his tail, everyone has such a good imagination!
I see a Fire Eater in the last one
‘He has the whole world in his hand – or at least North America!’
Ha! Ha! Yikes…Got it…Thanks Martha 🙂
I see someone ‘Reaching for the moon’.
I like that!
Casting a Spell
Oh yes! For sure. Thanks Denise 🙂
Inspiration Strikes!
That definitely works. Both for the image and the topic of the article. Nice one Phyllis!
Romeo and Juliet
Ah yes! I see that. So romantic…thank you Carolyn.x
Rain …at last ..
That’s lovely Dale; the outstretched arms welcoming the downpour.
Forked lightning
Yesss! I can see that Carol, especially if I darkened the surrounding area.
Setting the World on Fire!
Yes…great one Anne…in a good way of course 🙂
Or … Releasing 2020 and Letting Go …
(I see someone with a lantern with a candle inside about to set it free)
Now. I like that idea Anne…and yes, I see your lantern person….thanks so much for your interpretations Anne….so much fun to see how our minds try to make sense of scant, suggestive lines. All different, all valid.
I’d call the last one, “Lightning in s Bottle”
Great one Dean. That definitely works!
Jimi Hendrix
That’s a stretch for me Bloom but I think I can see his arms…?
Ha, that’s the fun of it :). I see legs, with a guitar neck jutting out, body curving….now I hear music!
Thanks for the hint….I am getting the music now too :-)! Fantastic!
Cock of the Walk
I can also see “A man who is too confident and thinks he is better than everyone else” Great one Lurline. Thank you!
