Hide And Seek

We can often surprise ourself when we are in creative mode, I thought I would try to do a painting of my daughter from a picture of her hiding behind the Popcorn tree. I did it in sepia tones , My kids always played Hide and seek at night. I So miss those days
I Call This
HIDE AND SEEK

Waterseller Ghost

Study of The Waterseller of Seville (Velazquez)1618-1622 I did in class . Water mixable oil on Acrylic pad. I chose only 3 of the elements from his painting I did not included the boy and the old man, as I am not good with people yet. The Ghost is a man standing in line in the shadow, but I saw a ghost instead, OOOOw. As I looked at his painting the more I liked it. You can Google The Waterseller to see the painting it's history and his other art. I liked the water mixable oil it was different and blended nicely and layering washes nicely. Rich colors as well and the look of oils .

Blue Bird On my Shoulder.

This is Blue Bird on my Shoulder. I just finished her this week.

Watch Where You Are Going . My Art teacher handed us photos she took and I picked a land scape that had a side view mirror in the lower corner. Well I just had to play, my imagination took over. After thinking and comments from the class i had to add the watch tower. LOL I may call it Going East and leaving the West Behind. What do you think. Any Suggestions?

The Rocky Banks Of Cry Me River

It took years for her to walk the long journey
to The Rocky Banks Of Cry me A River. As soon as she arrived, All she had been through flowed out of her eyes with tears of all the sorrows, losses, disappointments, and even joys of the experiences of years gone by. Her tears filled the river, and released her soul of pain for a greater understanding, and wisdom of her life as it is.
Her Friends the crows Were there along the way to offer there support and kindness as friends do.
