Gold Spun Poppies

Art & Illustration

I didn’t mean to. It just happened that way that I created an image with poppies that look like they are Dazed and Confused .

I created this image using my usual atmospheric landscape mindset and experimented with red because I don’t really use red. Red is one of those colours that I hate immensely, so I have always avoided using red in paintings.

But I’m finding I quite like this image. I’m surprised at how beautiful it looks and almost traditional it feels in its floral nature. When I took up the activity of painting, in my mind’s eye, I couldn’t imagine myself being a life painter and that’s why I decided to go down the abstract painting route.

However looking at this rather appealing image of shall we say, spun out poppies, I think it is possible for me to pursue being a painter of floral patterns.

There you are! Blue abstract landscape digital

I was inspired by Andy Morris’s Mysty mountain which produced this painting below. The Abstract Landscape course has been on my wish list and I hadn’t got around to watching the full course yet after watching the preview.

Then because my PC has died and I’m saving for a new imac and in homage to my emerging creative talents, I was left with just my phone to tinker around the edge of the painting to make it look more presentable.

So using the phone’s digital capabilities I was pleased to discover another dimension.

A mysterious path has been created instead.

Angry cake

Art & Illustration

I’m currently on a weight management program and I have lost nearly one stone that’s five kilos or 14 pounds.

During the process I’ve been learning about the psychology of why we eat.

So I’ve been looking at emotional eating habits and how to break them.

So when I painted this image I couldn’t help thinking how angry it looks. Indeed when I created it I was angry because I was thinking of a difficult task I had to do and the circumstances that led to it.

So when deciding which digital image would go I thought the fairy cake was the most apt thing.
