Day 21: 30 Days - 30 Paintings - Feb. 2018

Gothic Quarter - Barcelona 

The walls of ancient cities carry with them character, aged materials, and beautiful muted colors.  The Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, Spain is a warren of narrow streets bedecked with imprints, designs and hues that reflect centuries of use and wonder.  This painting  celebrates the mystery of the old building walls in the meandering, narrow streets of this beautiful, unique city.

Enjoy!

Starseed

Due to the combination of rich colors and fluid design elements, to me this painting has a multidimensional quality.  It evokes an ethereal sensation which can transport the viewer to a more inward-looking, meditative state.  In the world today - it seems that may be a pretty good place to spend some time...

Enjoy!

Day 30 - 30 Paintings - 30 Days - January, 2016

Sunset in the City

As of today, the sun is setting on the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge -  January, 2016. The experience of making the commitment to produce a painting per day may aptly be termed a challenge in the midst of the happenings of 'daily life' - especially if the process is outside of what one normally does.  

What I love about the process is that it moves you out of a place of the severe inner critic and allows you to accept the goodness of what you produce as an unfolding.  some days I loved what appeared on the canvas/panel/paper and other days it was more of an acceptance and learning of the potential of what could evolve in the next painting.

I also love the interaction with my many painter-friends - many of whom have become wonderful 'cyber-friends' and great supporters.  I have learned so much from each of you - old and new.  Thank you so much!!!  Thanks also to Leslie Saeta for being the catalyst to allow this all to happen.

Gilded Diamonds

The Harlequins strike again!  The series keeps expanding.  Today's painting includes warm and transparent Quinacridones paints along with metallic Gold.  Unfortunately the deep and shiny Gold is difficult to capture in a photo.  It truly exudes a rich and warm glow in person!

Going Green

At times I shy away from working in green because it seems to oftentimes be a very fickle range of colors.  Then, I get my hands sloppy with paint and delight in the variety of shades of green that can be mixed - and I have a great time.  Here I'm peering through the illusion of a barrier that holds me from playing with greens...before I decide to just have fun and go green...

The Grid

I'm enjoying the underlying grid that peeks in and out throughout this piece.  Once again, the metallic copper color does not come through in a photo - but adds an attractive sheen to the woven  elements.  There is also an airiness that pervades the piece.

Spiralocity

The spiral is a common shape found in nature and an ancient symbol in many cultures. It can have several meanings such as growth and evolution or it can represent a person coming back to the same point in one's life, but with new and enhanced understandings.  The symbol of the spiral can encourage a viewer to become more flexible and have trust when things change.

Enjoy the journey.

Stonehenge of the Southwest

One of the most unique and awesome features about Phoenix is the downtown Burton Barr Public Library.  In 1995, architect Will Bruder built an amazing structure to house the educational written word (among other things)  for the community.  

On the Summer Solstice - through deliberate, perfect geometry and intricate architecture - the expansive top floor Great Reading Room is miraculously transformed into a truly awesome experience.   Precisely at Solar Noon on the Solstice, the Great Reading Room's walls, glacial blue skylights and soaring pillars morph into a huge sundial and become illuminated from the sunlight directly above causing an outrageous ethereal light show.  The tips of the 28 pillars suddenly resemble freshly lit candles and the stone side walls begin to glow.  The visual effect lasts only a short time, but is enough to take your breath away.

To actually witness a celestial event because of the very intentional, pre-meditated design of a huge public-use building is phenomenal.  Sometimes referred to as the "Stonehenge of the Southwest", the Central Phoenix Library is something to be acknowledged and lauded.  Very cool...

Purple Print Four Ways

The mono-print below appears to be one of those that has can be viewed rather successfully from any side - vertical, horizontal, up or down.  

Which do you prefer? #1, #2, #3 or #4?

Let me know.

Also - did anyone notice any shells in the mono-print? (Refer back to Days 6 & 7 for the significance of the shell in my work.)
