NEW WORK CONTINUES
Untitled #1
Untitled #2 in Process Untitled #2
I am continuing with the Terra Series but am now considering making the Terra Series a part of the Journeys Collection which would be composed of the Terra Series and Celestial Bearings (working title). The Celestial Bearings would continue the theme of mapping but rather than the earth or geography, it would be a mapping of the skies, but certainly not this galaxy.
My first attempt is Untitled #1 above which though it has some good qualities seems to lack a sense of depth and interest. My second attempt is shown above as Untitled #2 and is the end product that starts with the process shown in the preceeding image–Untitled #2 in process. The first image is the foundation for the detail which is laid on top with India ink. I find the theme intriguing and challenging and reminds us all of the journeys in our lives.

I love this piece, I think the black really makes it work well with the other colors and shapes.
if you would like to exchange links I would love to have you on my blog roll.

I like the new work…the sharpness of the overlapping geometrics with the softness of the color blends/shadows. Almost has a galactic planetary feel with the circles and back lighting.

I like the New Works. I had not seen them. Are they Celestial or Terra? I vote for Celestial,
The name and email and website section for comments is too pale and hard to see. I missed some of it and was directed back but everything I had just done including my comments had disappeared.
I really like this map-type watercolor and ink you are doing.
