"Garden Dancer"


"Garden Dancer"

This is the March Lesson from the online course I'm taking @ Chris Brandley Art
Unlocking Color Secrets - season 2

It's an 8 x 8 acrylic on wood panel
that I painted gold.
It turned out better than I expected
which is always a nice surprise. :)

"Crying Moon"

 


"Crying Moon"

10 x 10 acrylic on studio canvas.

This was an art challenge from the online course I am taking by Chris Brandley Art.
She uses dice with words on them and of the 5 that roll out you choose a few or all, compose and paint using the words. I chose these 4:
City Scape - Blue - Sorrow - Zooming Out

I found a way to use "sorrow" by painting a 
"crying moon." 
It really does tell a story, but in case you don't "get it," I painted a war-torn city scape and feel I used the words well. The situation made the moon very sad.

On to the March lesson of a frilly flower.
It looks difficult and so I did the challenge first
leaving the rest of the month to take my time on it. :)
