I have here a real mix of Orange as examples of today's Roy G Biv day search. The first one is a mixed media piece on a wood panel which includes paper, paint and cloth. The second piece is all beeswax on wood except for the square buttons and paper writing strips and the third is a cloth piece which includes stitching, beads and ink.

Gorgeous colors! As always inspiring!
ReplyDeleteJeane, Thanks so much. Orange really can be orangey...fun color.
DeleteI especially adore the first piece, with the birds. Glorious work, all of it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like this piece ...I did a series of three works of birds and this was one of my favorites.
DeleteHi Mary Ann- Your oranges really "sing"! Love them all but most intrigued by the stitched piece. Thanks for joining in this month!
ReplyDeleteJulie, I agree about the color orange singing and I'm so glad you like this stitched piece...I used it as a sample.
Deletewow, such rich color saturation, did you dye the cloth? those yardbirds of yours are wonderful...
ReplyDeleteCaterina, Thanks so much...I paint my fabrics with either fabric paint or acrylic paints.
DeleteThe birds are my favorite. Love the combination with the abstract background. - eric
ReplyDeleteEric, The birds are my favorite too...such plain little birds but such fun to watch. Thank you
DeleteA lot of people seem to like including birds in their artwork. But I must say, your bird piece is not only original, but the combination of colors, texture and whimsy is perfect.
ReplyDeleteBarbara, Thank you for stopping by and for your lovely comment...so appreciate your words.
Deletethis is so GREAT! LOVE the bold colors!
ReplyDeleteSue, Thank you...Orange and more orange!
DeleteThese are all so different, Mary Ann! I love the birds, but that saturated orange on the beeswax piece makes my heart sing!
ReplyDeleteSharmon, Thank you. Every so often I polish it with a soft cloth and it glows and the scent of the beeswax returns.
DeleteThe top piece is especially striking - I love the contrast between the texture of the fence and the (implied) softness of the birds ... and that orange of course - so vibrant!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much...this piece has been a really big favorite today!
DeleteGorgeous piece with the birds & love the contrast in the 2nd
ReplyDeleteThank you, this bird piece seems to be well liked...completed several years ago so it was fun to share again.
DeleteI love the orange-themed pieces you've shown us here - very joyful! The first one particularly drew me with its vertical elements... Thank you for a very enjoyable visit!
ReplyDeleteArzigogolare, Thank you ...glad you stopped by!
DeleteTruly love the third piece -- wonderfully rich and textured! In the midst of winter, the use of orange is striking, too!
ReplyDeleteKelly, Thanks for stopping by...I like the third piece too...it was a piece that taught me with textures combined in new ways.
