This weekends theme "Water" from Patrice was a lot of fun to play with
How can you not think of water when painting!
As it is a vehicle that moves the pigment around your page
It is also the only element that can be found in a solid,
liquid or gaseous state on our planet
It is so vital to everything we know that it is often overlooked.
So thank you Patrice! for giving us a chance to remember.
Please visit Her blog for more on the theme Water!
I love your 'water' interpretation Kristen! The water colour so different in each, and the brush strokes are beautiful. I so enjoy visiting your blog - loved the photos in the previous post too!
ReplyDeleteHi Kristen, I love that you wrote about water. and really, sometimes do not think about how many things in our everyday life is water. In fact a high percentage of our body is water.
ReplyDeleteI like your four small (I guess) paintings.
a hug!
hail to your lovely, soothing stills, just the ticket for me, today;
ReplyDeletethey partner up well too, i think, the deserted (?) island being my number 1, or would it be, could it be iceberg? ;)))

Dear Kristen,
ReplyDeleteI love how you move the pigments by water. Are you painting on glass? (I was wondering inwardly at your yellow pic with sweet armadillo). The transparence, the brushstroke... hmmm!
Wonderful row of pics and thoughts!

I always like to see your interpretations of these drawing challenges…you always have a unique perspective to offer which I find both intriguing & amusing.
ReplyDeleteThey´re wonderful. Each painting tells another story.
ReplyDeleteOh I love them! I don't know which one is my favorite, I'm totally in love with these small images! I want more!
