Have you read Ursula Le Guin’s Earthsea books?
Soon as I saw this, memories of Ged in his boat Lookfar approaching port sprang to my mind…
I am a long term and huge fan of Ursula Le Guin. I think I have read just about everything she wrote, most of them several times and i always learn something new each time. She has been a good friend, mentor and spiritual guide through the years: through her writing of course, I never met her. I did however write to her on her eightieth birthday to say thank you for all that she had been in my life and i got a beautiful hand written and illustrated letter in reply. I was so pleased I had written. So, moving right along …
I hadn’t thought of Ged in Lookfar but it certainly does remind me of that now you mention it. This painting i did several years ago, I was thinking of Ged.
