Being creative energises and stimulates my mind. Planning, researching, and working up a concept for a watercolour is fun. The execution is an intense balance of speed, improvisation, allowing the paint and paper media to work their magic, and not overworking the image.
The painting process is often over too quickly and my inner critic is harsh.
Inspired by a stone trefoil with coloured glass, this abstract picture is carrying on the ovoid shapes theme with the colours intermingling rather than having hard edges.
I used left over paint from the previous watercolour with some extra colours.
As a teenager, I signed my work with Rx and the year of production. As I am tapping into the creativity of my inner child, I have revived this tradition.
Inner critic??? Who is that, dismiss it.
Thank you 😄 I will try harder to dismiss the hidden critic.
I like the whole, but isn’t it absolutely fascinating how segments are their own painting?
I couldn’t agree more, thank you for commenting.
Most welcome 🙂
Let your inner critic turn into love. you will be rewarded by what you create in light rather than the dark shadow of inner critics which cannot grow seeds planted by the light.
I had not considered the light dark point of view, thank you. I do aim to live and create in light rather than dark however, restraint/critic/darkness looms at the edge of my awareness.
Only you can vanquish the dark by changing your thoughts around this.
Your words in themselves are illuminating, thank you.
Love it keep creating!
Thank you ❤️
