With class out I couldn't use the paper cutter to make my horizontals and I thought what if I laid a 5x7 in landscape and put a horizontal line through the center and moved out from the line on both sides towards the edges, that would work like a couple horizontals and they would react to each other and that would be pretty cool wouldn't it?
And I liked it a lot. I wanted to do more with the same game plan.
Liked this one too, but not as much, colors too simple and not dirty enough.
This one went way off track. And you know how when your ship begins sinking you make all these drastic moves but it gets worse with each one? Was ready to consign this to the sacrifice stack but something caught my eye and then I put in those thin turquoise stripes and I am not sure whether to go on or just call it a masterpiece and be done with it.
This one has just begun. Waiting for something to happen.
Let’s just call it a masterpiece.
ReplyDeleteGood starting premise. I do like that first one—it feels like a refection. You're right about the second one; I think it needs more layering or something. My favorite is the third one. That spark of turquoise against the striated amber bits really makes it. Leave it alone before the colors get too muddy to be interesting.
ReplyDeleteNo. 1 and 4 are really interesting to me. I like the massing of color and then the thin lines moving out. Not crazy about #3 - it kind of reminds me of gift wrapping paper— but those turquoise lines against the smudgy brown are very attractive.
