These are gorgeoud, Paivi! Ilove seeing the layers build and build. And I so appreciate that you teach the art of expression, which I think is the hardest part of art.

In reply to Mary W. Thank you, Mary! You got it right! However, these were not created with Daniel Smith's like the one last week. Most of these are made with Van Gogh watercolors.

That was fun! My guess is that the 1st began the 3rd painting, the 2nd began the 4th painting, the 3rd began the 1st painting, and the 5th began the 2nd painting. Your landscapes are perfect in my eyes – full of imagination and beautiful scenes. And COLOR! Always, beautiful colors. Your wasting no time playing with the Daniel Smiths and your results are amazing.

You are hands down one of my favourite artists! Rarely can I sit through and read a whole post but you captivate me through both your art and words. Thank you.

I love these so much! I wish I could be as free and playful as you are in creating. I, too, found it much easier to paint watercolor on smaller pieces of paper. It was fun to match the backgrounds with the finished paintings!

In reply to Linda. Thanks, Linda! About combining abstract and realistic: I will show many ways to approach the topic, so don't worry!

Delicious Paivi! Your need to know the code, the logic and the principles behind the image shows how you use the whole of your brain – the creative and the analytical whereas most of us who create use just the left side of our brain! I enjoy looking at these pieces but feel somewhat anxious about trying this approach myself in Bloom and Fly … but, it’s all about the learning …..
