weekly photo challenge

Wall iii

For today’s Weekly Photo Challenge Cheri asks us to, “Share an image of a wall that reveals something about a place, people, or you.”

This wall in my studio will be familiar to those of you who follow Studio 365, which I started on my blog on the 1st of January this year with the goal of posting every day throughout the year.

If you would like to see the wall in more detail I invite you to visit today’s Studio 365 where I have posted a slide show of many of the wall’s images for Day 72.

Only 293 days to go!

Studio 365: Day 72

Day 72

For today’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Wall, I posted this photograph in response to Cheri asking us to Share an image of a wall that reveals something about a place, people, or you. .

For Studio 365: Day 72 I thought I would add a slide show of the wall’s somewhat eclectic content for those who might be interested. It includes photos of places like Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, St. Antimo, Tuscany, paintings and photographs of mine that may be familiar to some of you, and a special treasure, a painting by my daughter. The pieces keep changing of course but the gallery makes for a great record of a moment in time. I hope you enjoy it.

Using the orange background I created for yesterday’s post I re-visited Day 48 today.

Studio 365: Day 68

Day 68
 
“Colour exists in itself, has its own beauty…I used colour as a means of expressing my emotions and not as a transcription of nature. I use the simplest colours. I don’t transform them myself it is the relationships which take charge of them. It is only a matter of enhancing the differences, of revealing them. Nothing prevents composition with a few colours, like music which is built on only seven notes”

Henri Matisse from The Path of Colour in Matisse on Art, 1947

The small framed postcard is of Matisse’s Nature morte aux grenades, Vence 1947 from the Musée Matisse in Nice; perfect for another Matisse Monday. The oranges are from Cosco.

Lost a few petals whilst I was away but was rewarded with Day 60’s image after eighteen
attempts painting with light tonight.

And the Oscar goes to…

…our wonderful late parents to whom we gave this golden Oscar to celebrate their Golden Wedding in 1986. What a special day that was. Lovely to remember them on thechangingpalette on Oscar Day and particularly my mothers advice to always “Count your blessings.”

Rule of Thirds applied.
