Finally, though this may appear on top of the postings I've added to our blog over the last 15 minutes, this is a section of a painting I made about three years ago. By cutting it from the larger painting, I unintentionally created what appears to be three bodies lined up and rendered from the waist down. I don't even remember the original painting enough to know what the vertical shapes are 'supposed' to be. But, I can't stop making my own interpretation of what they look like now. Use your imagination - or not. Mostly I let my original painting colors and paint application style show in this re-imaging of the original. You can see I found a fun texturing feature that sort of makes the paint looked crackled. I do like this very loose and abstract style of painting and I've got to get back to it in my current work. However, this particular image doesn't have enough contrast and dynamic tension to be a good composition. It might be better as part of a collage.
OK. That's it for what I've done this week with my new art app. Any comments. From anybody. Always welcomed including negative critiques -- as long as they are constructive!
What have you been up to, Helga? Oh, renovating a house, you say? I hope you get time on the construction site with your camera. Lots of good photo ops at a construction site. Have a great weekend.
