Third Art Class

Well I am not sure I want to show what I did this week.  We worked on our textured board that we made last week and whilst I enjoyed experimenting I really do not like what I produced at all.  I think it is too abstract to me (either that or just a plain mess!) The result does not really match the picture I was trying to 'copy'  I did learn a little about mixing colours though which was useful.  It can probably do with a lot more work on it yet, but in reality I am not sure I am going to bother.

  1. I love it - I see it as a road leading towards a bright future - not sure if that is what you had in mind but I love it and can imagine that with the texture it would be even better. I can see it as a tapestry too. Don't be too hard on yourself - it's great.

    1. You are too kind! Like lots of paintings I think it looks better from a distance which is hard to capture on a photograph, but I don't know it just isn't my kind of thing really. I did enjoy doing it though so I guess that is something :-) Funny you say that you see it as a road...I didn't (and that is not what the original photograph was of) but looking at it across the room from where I am sitting, yes I can see a 'road' which is quite interesting. Great to get another perspective anyway.

  2. It's lovely ... I'm seeing sandbanks ... or rock ledges ... the edge of the ocean ... and a gorgeous sunrise or sunset ... depending on what side of the country you live in :0)

    1. Thank you for you comment and your interpretation. there is indeed a sunset so I must be getting something right!

      My younger son likes it so it has perhaps been saved from the 'to bin' pile after all!
