I love and admire these two for their simplicity. I love their use of color. I seem incapable of creating art like this. I just can't seem to stop adding, fixing, fiddling. I guess I would need someone to say, "Step away from the canvas..." (although mind would more than likely be watercolor paper instead of canvas, but I quibble...)
Oh this bird, I fell in love with him. I wish I could have him, but he was way beyond my ability to buy. I simply had to admire, gush at the artist and get permission to photograph it. Perhaps I can make one like it some day.
I love these for the texture and the unusual shape. I stared for a long time, trying to catch every detail!
There were several people who made art with found or recycled objects. I took a few of these kinds of photos for Ethan since he was not with me to appreciate their artistry.
I love this man's art every year. Perhaps some day I will have one. I would love to see his workshop or go shopping/finding with him. He must be very intense and interesting to create such art.
I love the whimsy of the art this woman creates. I might be moved to create my own version of this kind of art.
These abstract flowers are wonderful for the color and design.
I was so moved by these that I went home and started a painting the next day. I was inspired by very different styles and the result, while my kids loved it, was very incongruous. I may have another go at it. I am not sure if I will post that attempt or not.
In the mean time, here are a few fun videos related to the holiday that I wanted to share:
"Fireworks" by PES
If you like this one, go onto youtube.com and look up "Human Skateboard" by PES.
Here's another that Ethan found:
I hope your head will be swimming with inspiration soon, too.
