Waterlilies

Waterlilies by Sheila Gay is a unique arrangement - grouping a bunch of waterlilies together without being on water - you really get a sense of their own coloring and vibrancy. (Click on the image for more info and zoom.)

Blue Jay

Being on the west coast for a while, I really miss East Coast Blue Jays so when I saw this piece, it really struck a deep chord with me.

Thought

A textured acrylic painting done on canvas by Nancy Soulliard. I liked it even before I saw the profile - I love it when you just keep seeing more in a work of art the longer you look.

Bon Voyage

The 'active' brushwork on the sky gives this work an odd surrealistic character - the lack of ground/land seems to add to that feel as well. (Click the image for more info and zoom.)

Rifts Of Echelons

"Rifts Of Echelons" - a cool piece and a cool title too. I also give the artist credit for the description, "A timeless, constantly shifting void of energy amasses and dissipates during it's ritualitic meandering and metamorphing." (Click the image for more info and for zoom.)

The Canyon

Thought I'd take a break from traditional art for the moment and highlight some digital art for a change. When I saw this image (by Ryan French), I was reminded of Atlantis, but then, I have a fascination for Atlantis - LOL. Anyway, I thought this was haunting and mystical in an ancient civiliation kind of way. (Click the link for more info and zoom.)

Snowhill

A work by Tiny Vaziri. I'm guessing it was done in pastels, although the medium isn't specified. It softly captures that fleeting moment just before the two people join hands and proceed up to the mansion on the hill. (Click the image for more info and zoom.)

Autumn Sunset Butterfly Blossom

The Autumn Sunset Butterfly Blossom art print is described as a reproduction of a watercolor painting by Waylan Loyd Jr. It also has the look of digital imaging in some ways. In any case, I liked the quirky subject too, and the soft colors. (Click the image for more info and zoom.)

Wedding Peacock

The green and blue in this watercolor piece just sparkle. The artist used this image as the basis for her own wedding invitations - very creative! (Click the image for more info and zoom.)
