Today we went to the Human Rights Festival in Athens, Georgia….while there we saw two unique autos.

The first one was an old truck completely covered in Bottle Caps…

Angels and Saints…….

DSC_0011Must confess the frog and bat are my favorite…..but the spirit of these artists really captured my attention and imagination….they acted with full courage to bring their vision to the public and the tenacity to make their visions came to reality.

There is definitely a lesson in there for me….

Our family got the chance to visit southern California… and one of the beautiful places we got to visit was Joshua Tree National Park. The park was enormous and we only got to drive through about half of it. There are plenty of places to pull off to get out of the car and go exploring.

Even though the temperature was in the low 80’s …it being the desert….it felt much hotter….and the intensity of the sun was a bit overwhelming….but none of this stopped our kids from scrambling up onto the boulders and wondering down a path or two.

Below are a few pictures of that day….I decided to make these photos as black and whites…felt like it really expressed the starkness of the desert’s beauty.

Georgia is a green state….but I like the black and white version of this forest photo best because the lines and shapes are more pronounced in the BNW photo….

Had to cut loose with this self-portrait. Usually don’t paint like this…..but boy did it feel good. Not sure if I like this painting, but the feeling of freedom while working on it makes me love it.

Life of an Artist…..Out Scouting for New Painting Subjects

Georgia, the state I live in is beautiful, but I really don’t find the landscape very inspiring. So when I go scouting for something new to paint…I focus in on small hidden treasures that I find in the forest.

I was looking for something that had good lines and would lean itself toward abstraction. Below are pictured a few of nature’s wonders that I found interesting.

Image

Image

The above picture is called ‘rabbit ear’ by the locals because the leaves are very fleshy and soft to the touch….like a rabbit’s ear. 

Image

 

The one pictured above…was a shocking find. Who would have thought such a lovely orange colored thing would be found growing out of a fallen tree limb on the forest floor. 

True to form on such hikes is one of our cats….an old tom cat named Tiger. He follows me around like a dog…minus the barking.

Image

Image

When going on these little hikes I always find an interesting tree. The bark or sometimes the lack of it can be very interesting.

Last picture is of me with my ‘forest coat’ on….would not be caught in town with it on, but it is perfect protection against briers. I just shove my hands into the deep pockets and press through the thickest brier patches.

Image

Said last picture, but I have to post these early blooming daffodils. These were the last find in today’s hike.

Image

Great artistic day….even though I didn’t get any time in the studio. Got lots of ideals from nature for new paintings. Plus being outside is an important thing for me personally. 

Hope you get the time and chance to see something wonderful outside today.

This is an original oil painting of an abstract seascape on a stretched 5×7 inch canvas.

 

This is an original miniature abstract landscape oil painting on a 3×9 inch stretched canvas. I live in a rural NE Georgia and the inspiration for this piece is from a farmers field and house near our home.
