After the hacking yesterday I had to get my self together and make a post. It was really scary waking up to the fact that someone got into my site and made a really crazy post with probably dangerous links. Luckily I was the only one that saw the post on the site but all got a notification. Deleted post, took him off as author, installed security plugin and made a complete scan. All OK

About Art Work

This is another experiment using Joan’s prompts. Basically I used 2 colors + black and white.

  1. יום קשוח, אבל ציור ממש יפה מטורף שהוא עשוי רק משתי צבעים מרגיש כל כך יותר

  2. Carol – the boundary-busting spammers do leave us unsettled, right? Predators of cyberspace. They drive me bonkers.

    But this piece! Like a softened Rutenberg painting! I adore it!

  3. Carol, I absolutely love this piece. The composition, colors, textures, organic lines/marks and rhythm are both evocative (make me respond with my own interpretations and meaning), and compelling leading to the intersection of paths in and paths out beyond edges.

  4. Thanks so much! One thing I learned from this set of prompts was that one told me to divide with 2 lines ,turn 90, and then with 3 more. What I took away from this was that I need to structure my work earlier in the process in my CWM.

  5. Thanks so much Sheila. Yes, it’s amazing what one can do by setting limitations, color, tools, etc. Hope all is well with you. Brachot.

  6. ahhhhh, the gifts of a limited palette! I’m pulled to explore the cruciform composition, the contrast of linearity and softnesses, and the varied values. I like that following the prompts has led you to see that you need to structure your work earlier in the process—and you give me something to consider as well with that learning. What does CWM stand for?

  7. CWM is cold wax medium. I make my own. Thanks so much for your feedback. Thanks for pointing out the cruciform composition. I hope to make a set of prompts for my oil painting with cold wax. I love linework and since my workshop with Sara Post have been using it more and more,
