Loving the depth which I seem to struggle with 🙄 the colours are very vibrant.
The texture you see comes from layering palette scrapings on top of palette scrapings (dried acrylic), and colours always seem to look brighter on a computer screen don’t you think…Thank you Rose
A real powerful cornucopia John with many shed memories for ghosts to play with. Hope this is a clean up in preparation for many new artworks to come.
I like the idea of a “cornucopia” of colours Robert. Although this photo was from before I am in fact in the middle of (another) clean-up, or purge, right now. To make space for the muse to appear in…
Now I envy you John……cleaning up/purging is not one of my strong points…..and I know it is so necessary. I’m sure your Muse will like it too!
Excellent poem. I’ve had a long day and almost thought it said peeled from abandoned potatoes. But thank goodness I reread it. It’s funny how words can lead us into other directions. Thanks for sharing your art my friend. Enjoy your weekend.
“peeled from abandoned potatoes” I like much better than “palettes” – it’s so surreal and makes me smile…thanks for coming by Terry
I really appreciate how much there is to see here! Nice!
It is a bit of a pile-on but seems to work somehow. Thanks Debra
Nothing is a waste. Everything can be put to use. Nice potrait…….nice words.
You’re absolutely right Clare, the art of the discarded! Thank you for your thoughts
Ah, and these vibrant skins have certainly kept your magical forest blissfully occupied! Beautiful couple with your haiku, my friend.
Nice image Marina, like a film of the process of painting run backwards. Good to see you my friend, as always
