All my creative pursuits.
This week, I didn’t have any good photos for Cee’s Black and White Challenge theme, but the wildflowers are in full bloom and I snapped a couple pics along my walk. Both of these shots are scenes I’m planning on painting, in color of course, but they make interesting monochrome images, too. See the flying insect I captured in the first one? Good timing!
I’ve got a particular fondness for poppies, not just for their connection to the Great War. They’ve become a favorite subject to recreate in my artwork. Here they are in pencil, ink brush and paint:
“Flowers” is the theme for Cee’s Black and White Challenge this week. My gardening is really behind schedule this year due to the late arrival of spring AND a backyard catastrophe: our well line ruptured and a new one had to be installed which resulted in digging up the back yard in spectacular fashion! So here are the wild flowers that grow in the nearby woods and the grass:
