Interesting start

Don't know where I am going with this.

T'will be interesting to see where you go from here.

 

[laf.art]

Morning all,
I'm just about to finish a collage, just got the odds and sods to tidy up.will post later.

 

[Iain]

Thank you laf and sno.

I am working on something loosely based on the bone breast plate of the Native or First Nation people. I have always admired their use of colour, design and material.

Finishing up on a cave wall, too.

 

[laf.art]

Ok here it is. Some of you may remember the sketch I've used. I also used various bits and pieces from failed paintings or prints of my own stuff. Thinking of calling it Private Beach - unless anyone wants to offer an alternative

 

[Artyczar]

Cool start Iain. Keep going!

laf, I am liking what's happening here. Private Beach seems like a good title for it.

 

[Bizzibee]

Just go with the flow of your creative mind Iain.

Laf.art that is very creative and inventive and clever, too!

 

[snoball]

Lyn, that makes a very interesting collage. ❤ Beach a La Privacy

 

[laf.art]

Oo la la Sno perfect
Cheers Bizzi and Arty.
It was a lot of fun to do

 

[snoball]

Thanks Lyn but at this point it was far from perfect. I's not even perfect in its own thread but I poked a fork in it and called it done.

 

[laf.art]

Great attitude ha ha ha

 

[Iain]

I like the french title for the collage which is really well done, I would like to see it first hand.

 

[snoball]

I don't know what these are but you've got a bunch of them! You could make them with rolled colorful magazine pages.

 

[Iain]

It's bamboo, sno, grown here. I was near completion of a "cave wall" and got way laid with these. I guess it will end up as decoration. These are only the ones I have coloured. Probably have as many not coloured.

 

[snoball]

Very interesting, and they are very pretty colored like that. Be sure and post whatever you do with them.

 

[Iain]

Thanks, sno. I will.

Been a while since I have painted a little still life setup from life...

Ceramic cup and matches. Oil on Masonite, 10 x 15 cm.

Oh yes....this is great....

 

[laf.art]

When I look at the bamboo I picture running a chopstick down them to create sounds, like a sort of xylophone.

I like this, the blue is really lovely and its good to see the brushstrokes

Spot on, laf. The sound they make as I move them around reminded me of traditional Indonesian music, Gamelan. Maybe I should make tens of wind chimes.
