there are many things
that mesmerize me
in this life...
water
is one of them...
| caribbean water on the beach... |
so on my art journey in
this sweet life...
I decided to get back to painting..
and I chose water abstracts
to
play with...
| wip.. in the middle and on the left black and white photo image... Prismacolors, NUPASTEL |
I am using NUPASTELS again
which allows me to shape the chalk and draw as well as blend with water
and use a brush.. they are so versatile..
I generally break them in half to use one for drawing,
and the other piece lives
in the tray and I use it as a watercolor paint pot..
| the water and sand at Lake Michigan |
there are a couple of completed pieces, below
and I am working on the idea of some collaged pieces as well...
what I am wanting to
do is create the
FEELING
of water..
the images that
inspired me are underneath the two pieces..
from my personal photo stash...
When I copy them in
black and white, it allows me to use whatever colors
speak to me...
and lets face it, water comes in so many colors...
| green, brown, blue, water of Mackinac Island |
the first of the small mini series..
That's what I have been up to...
what is going on in YOUR January?
C4N!
