Two very different pieces but plenty of pink! The first one "Silent Alcove" is from my Citadel series and the second one is titled "Morning Prayers". Both are mixed media on paper. This is my contribution to the Roy G Biv day ... PINK! I'm interested in seeing more pink here on blogland ... first stop will be Jennifer Coyne Qudeen
Really beautiful, especially the top one. Love that soft color.
ReplyDeleteThank you ... in those days I was using an electric sander on the heavy paper ... being careful not to sand fabrics.
ReplyDeleteas always, I go WOW!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeane, I try to remember creating some of these older pieces ... a blur but a pleasant blurr!
Deletewell the first one stole my heart.. just spectacular..
ReplyDeleteThank you Caterina for these good words! Funny how some pieces just reach out and touch us.
DeleteMary Ann, "Silent Alcove" is a gorgeous piece - it speaks to me of ancient time and serenity. That shade of pink is uniquely fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharmon, I was going for a time of serenity using the photos and descriptions of "The Alhambra" in Spain as my inspiration. The gardens and water features alone create an oasis and so this series was brought into being. Pink is not an easy color for me but I grayed it down and added the yellow ochre squares which muted it even more. I have enjoyed re-posting this piece and I'm so glad you like it too.
DeleteHow lovely these are - especially the top one with it subtle salmon pinks.
ReplyDeleteCharlton Stitcher, Thank you, This piece is from an older series and nice to know its still holding up!
DeleteSuch lovely pieces! "Morning Prayers" really speaks to me...it seems so full of joy.
ReplyDeleteArzigogolare, Thank you, I remember this image fell easily into place and yes, about the full of joy ... for me too!
DeleteAnd I go for the hot pink variations and the cool geometry of Morning Prayers.
ReplyDeletePatrice, Thank you , you said it better than me! I like it too!
