Recently I was going through a box with some of my pieces and found a few that I had never shown here, for whatever reasons. But since we have Nicole's Sunday in the Art Room, I feel comfortable showing them here. If I remember correctly, this was inspired by Laly Mille's "Color Challenge" which is part of her "Mini Abstracts" Workshop. I had done a couple of those mini series (green, abstract, and imaginary landscapes) and for this series I had chosen earthy colors. I thought since I love earthy colors this would be relatively easy and quick, but as is so often the case, I was kidding myself. These four little pieces I created in September 2023.
The substrat is four 6x6 inches watercolor papers that I collaged with different papers that I then covered with a thin layer of watercolor. On each piece I used the same papers. But since I'm not really into abstract painting, I only created one abstract piece using a few buttons I had.
For the others I chose some pictures that I had cut from magazines and added them to the pieces.
The following one is my favorite.
The Kestrel in the picture reminded me of the sweet Kestrel we had seen in Kaysersberg in Alsace in 2022. Even the bricks are similar.
Isn't he (she?) super cute?
