This week I have played with architectural sketches. I am an organic-line-person and drawing straight lines is a challenge for me. I am trying to find the balance for the architectural sketches and watercolors  I have started to explore and I would like to capture this beauty of the lines and colors

Work in progress

An interpretation of color

Interpretations

Sometimes we cannot explain why we find something attractive. It can be out last experiences or a color scheme might seem really pleasant. As an artist I often don't have the explanation in words and suggest to the viewer to enjoy their own interpretation.

I am exploring making architectural sketches

Character. This is an illustration of unwritten story.

Travel

I was asked recently and if my art is influenced by my travel. My reflection on it ended with the answer: yes, but not in direct way.

Going through exhibits I find little gems that capture my attention. These inspire me. I might look at them, copy, redo or just improvise on the theme of one.

I think it is a time for a new post.
There are lots of new sketches that I would like to share with you. I will keep on posting slowly :)

Sunflowers turn my head as I anthropomorphise them in my head. Here is a version of a sunflower character.

This is from the balloon head series. You will see more of these. Last year I have made a balloon head for my Halloween costume too :)

Creating forms with lines. This is in development as I fell I can push it more.

We have been working over the summer on a new project!

This is a collaboration with an amazing writer. Sam has been writing over the last several years and this volume contains flash fiction stories based on my drawings.

Find 'Stories about the Heads' on the virtual shelves on  October 17!

Details coming soon!

Mass Moca

Earlier in the spring I had a chance to visit a great art institution Mass Moca
Most of these will be on the exhibit until 2019 and it is very much worth a visit for one or even two days to enjoy the outside arts as well

Some highlights besides the incredible VR journey in the Chalkroom with Laurie Anderson and the Perfectly Clear by James Turrell are:

The Uncertainty of it All 2014 by Alexandria Smith 

The Archaeology of Another Possible Future by  Liz Glynn

Thumbs Up for the Mothership by  Dawn DeDeaux  and Lonnie Holley 

 The music instruments galore at the at Gunnar Schonbeck's assemblage in No Experience Required

Sol LeWitt colors made me dance :)

Super-Superfine: the art fair

It is fun to be exhibiting after a little break and meet fans and artists.
