Child’s Play 2

/ Flowerpoet / Leave a comment
Paint. Cut. Paste. Well it’s comfortably cooler here this morning. The clear matte coating on my fun art is drying a bit slower. Fine by me!
This is a the same piece in the shade on our balcony this morning. Lighting is truly important in the arts, even child-like art like mine. The textures don’t show up but that’s okay. Acrylics on watercolour paper with beach glass on canvas.

Playing It Cool

Taking my mind off the heatwave by playing with art, I created this piece I call Child’s Play. It’s a simple process of Paint, Cut, Paste. Acrylics on watercolour paper with beach glass all on a canvas board with a matte coating.
The colours look more blue here on our balcony in the morning shade and the details of colours with texture are less apparent. I like it when art changes with lighting. I feel like having a glass of water when I look at this piece on another day of our heatwave. June 28, 2021

Patience

I am like a child with a new box of crayons as I play with my new digital art app. Here, I am reminding myself to have patience as I learn and grow. ☺️💕✨

I’m just at the beading phase of my new weaving ‘Victoria’ the name of the city on Vancouver Island where I’ve lived over ten years this second time around.

Celebrated Arts

/ Flowerpoet / Leave a comment

Perhaps, like me, you’ve come to see

the Artists we most Celebrate,

in every Art that we create,

succeed through geographical Location

and supporting networks-Association.

How often Celebrated Art is a case

depending on glue and glamour of place,

depending on who it is Artists know,

spreading that glamour wherever they go.

On the global ‘Web’ I’ve come to see

Artistic Treasures to buy or admire for free

by Artists outside the Great Art Game,

not following the rules for Fortune and Fame

or knowing those who invest to profit and win

more wealth through Art and Artists now ‘in’.

I Celebrate Artists who stand apart

quietly creating their wondrous Art.
