Eye don’t know
Is it me?
Colours coruscate
Light flickers
Only one eye
Staring back at me?
Knowing nothing
Losing thoughts
I don’t know if it’s me.
Maybe?
Is that me?

Your face is a map
Ink bleeds through paper. Draw around those patches, lines and dots, and you get a patchwork ‘map’ that looks like roads and boulevards, streets and squares. A change of colour for city blocks. Villages line up on roads between fields. Some streets are tree lined, others are concrete. Does it show your age? Are you industrial or agrarian? Modern or ancient? Fortified? Or do you see veins, arteries and capillaries?
Twins?
Ink bleeds through paper and shows up on the back of the page. I usually try and use pens that don’t do this, but sometimes you can see something, and create something new. I used to draw round different areas of colours in the past and I’ve done something similar here. Two cats…
Looking out
A self portrait, using a self portrait photograph then using a texture filter by photodirector. Finally I used a flood fill to lighten the surrounding sections. I never know what is going to happen when I start. But something emerges. Something changes. And I end up with a picture that interests me.
Stems abstract
Waiting fot the green to grow
Looking for the water flow
Abstract colours
Leafy feeling
Are your colours
At all appealing?
Glossy green,
And deep blue
Lots of subtle colour
Hue.
Bottle oven abstract
I’m writing this because I’m trying to avoid watching the news about Ukraine again. People are dying. Food and water is running short for Ukrainian people. Russians attacking them are not ‘saving’ them. I just want to cry. I will say it, I think Vladimir Putin is evil, or stupid. Or both. Prosecuting a war because he feels bothered by Ukraine wanting to join Nato, when they didn’t have an application in? Why murder people. Why be so appallingly evil. Stop the WAR. I’m just a little person in the UK, I’m unimportant, but I’m disgusted by what is happening.
Yellow purple complement
Playing with complementary colours. I like red/green and blue/orange but a favourite is this combination yellow/purple. I yexturised the original pattern then mirror ed two of each, original and textured. Interestingly the colours seem to change as I used the texturising filters so I put them through Instagram to boost the intensity of the colours. It’s just a fun pattern.
Tree art
Capturing tree abstract ideas today. I saw a wonderful silhouetted tree on my slow, short walk this afternoon. Looking at the world is important. You have a chance to see things that you wouldn’t if you just stay home. But getting out is not always simple.
Life can get in the way. My knees ache now. But I’m glad we went. The air was clear and cold. I enjoyed walking and Ben managed a short bit of uphill walking.
Stars
Green stars abstract. Using a photo of an illuminated star. Duplicating it then changing the textures. The resulting image is a colourful abstract with an antique feel to it.
Pattern again, I like repeating images and tessellations. Must be the way my mind works… I like to learn and play with things till they look good. X
Abstraction, scales
This started as a black and white line drawing but then I played with it by playing with the texture then using a flood fill tool to add colour. I finally put it through an Instagram filter to heighten the colours. Just a little abstract pattern.
