watercolor 147 at 3pm
3:14 PM: i began adding color to the drawing i made this morning. ABOVE is the current state of watercolor 147. the geometric elements from the MOMA photo interact with the biomorphic icy creek shapes and the 3 figures, creating a dance of positive & negative spaces. let’s see what happens tomorrow…
drawing for watercolor 147
10:52 AM: i’ll be taking a break at 11:30 & going back to the house for a zoom with our friends in germany, who will be returning to their crestone home here in the baca in a couple of months. so i got to the studio a tad earlier than usual and, after a delicious breakfast of smoked salmon & boursin on a toasted bagel, i began the drawing for watercolor 147, about which i’ve been thinking since last night. we both agreed that watercolor 146 was successfully resolved yesterday afternoon.
breakfast with vuillard
this drawing is based upon a photo by noah kalina: a view from above of figures in MOMA; my photo of figures viewed from above at my space gallery exhibition in denver and one of my recent photos of icy creek on the trail head leading up to tashi gomang stupa.
my vision has been evolving; it now involves layering views of figures from above and views of the creek.
