A March wind is blowing...and we are still in February.
Meanwhile, indoors, this mixed media painting that took 3 weeks to come together, is finished! I've had this Gibson-girl type in my portfolio for a long time and I tried to use her in collage, but it never worked for me. A while back I pulled out a 10 x 10-inch canvas and started layering with some vague idea that I would draw/paint a figure on it. Not much happened; I continued to layer, change the colors. Then as I was going through my pile of stuff, I came across her, and everything clicked.
Moral of this story: Don't be in a rush; if nothing is happening, leave it alone because the answer will come! In actual fact, nothing stands still, something is happening, only you can't see it!
I like that moral - one I should tape to my forehead x oxo and yes, I will rescue you from the faery ring... but wouldn't it be fun to stay? :)
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful...I wonder if her name was Camilla? You do this soothing aquamarine no no other....elegant. Like you. xxx000
ReplyDeleteThat is so true! I like this painting/collage....the color is feminine and yet not frilly, love the little peek at the printed page behind, the flowers, and the girl is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the sentiments and your art is stunning! xo
