Clearing Art Space



Water Colours

Rummaging through my office today attempting to bring some order to my art space, I came across these four watercolour paintings I did a few years ago. I love the flow and unpredictability they bring; the light and shade that naturally occurs even when your not trying.

Top Left: A Queenslander home                             Top Right: Landscape (Friends Forever)
Bottom Left: Sturt Desert Rose                               Bottom Left: Ride the Wave

I find it interesting how I like different mediums at different stages in my life. Maybe times when I need to trust and go with the flow (water colour), when I need to be bold and strong (acrylic on canvas), to be contained and delicate (card making) and push through the resistance  (clay).

So with analogy in mind, I guess I'm being bold and strong whilst balancing with contained and delicate gently flowing between.
