I have done two now for this challenge…

The third is undesirable.. I really don’t know what to do with it… or what I could possibly turn it into.

Never mind…

I was busy yesterday with a ‘paid job’ so that took precedence.

Today I finished the second one for this challenge.

I got a lot of inspiration for this challenge by watching the ‘Colour in your Life’ series with aussie artists.

Cheers

Merri

Painting is a complete distraction. I know of nothing which, without exhausting the body, more entirely absorbs the mind. Winston Churchill

Well done Merri! Doesn’t matter where inspiration comes from – and that sounds like a good source.:)

Edit-I hate the way iPad changes my words because it thinks I meant something else! Grrrrr

Almost done, I think it just needs some glitter. I tied it in with the Halloween theme for the fantasy/sci fi project.

Okay, I’ll be the canary!

I tried many different ways to photograph this to get the illusion I wanted to show. When the work is viewed one way the gold is visible, the other way and it’s the teal colors that appear. But the camera, or the eye, can’t see this without moving.
