Worm Family Home

[Artyczar]

I didn't know if I should post this in Landscapes or Contemporary, but here it is. This is a brand-new watercolor on Arches. It is 22.3 x 30 inches.

Definitely an attention-grabber, Ayin. Interesting shapes and subject matter! I like the somewhat distorted point of view!

 

[Donna T]

So that's where worms live! This is such an upbeat, whimsical piece and it's beautifully painted!

 

[ZenDruid]

Cool, love the assemblage of shapes and colors.

What a colorful and fun work! I know it's desert, but it has a feeling of flowing to it, like it might be underwater. Very cool!

 

[Enyaw]

Very flowing. Great piece of art.

 

[Terri]

Wow! This is so much fun to look at. Colorful, playful and full of detail.

I am pondering how the worms peddle that bike.

Your imagination never fails to amaze me.

That painting, overall is really great Arty, I love it, but I have to ask if the worms are dancing on the rooftop or is there that much of them that won't fit in the home?

 

[Bongo]

This is classic Es at its best. the bike - genius. Worms usually have earth-tone colors. So since the earth is Crayola -luscious it's fitting that the worms are too!

 

[snoball]

Arty, do make a painting or drawing of those worms riding the bikes.

 

[Artyczar]

Thank you everyone! I truly appreciate all your comments and compliments. It gives me warm fuzzies.

Sno, I'm not sure how many worms live in the house, but that could have been a day they had extended family over.

Worms can't really ride bikes which is why the bike looks a little broken and bent. Many of the worms have tried to ride it to no avail.

love it!

So cute! and so clever. What a great fun piece.

Excellent watercolour, Arty.

 

[Artyczar]

Thank you so much Iain, truffles and ntl. I should thank everyone individually really. I have been so busy lately and have not been on the forum as much as I should be.

I have been painting and trying to get a lot of other tasks done lately. I have finally caught up (just barely) with my schedule now and I need to stay on point toward getting all the work done for my show, especially since my gallery threw extra work at me . An extra aerial oil painting and two small watercolors aside from all the other work, but I feel I can get those done now that I'm caught up in the main schedule.

I just finished one of the small watercolors, which I'll probably post today. The other one may have to wait until later next week since I have to do a shit-ton of dental procedures.

The other aerial oil painting I'm going to put off for now. I'm going to get the other watercolor done so I can frame all the finished watercolors (Yay!). Then I'll be working on two or three other oils before the last aerial...I'm going to give myself a break from all those dots!

Definitely fun to look at! Do I spy a little worm hole in the front door?

 

[Artyczar]

I didn't see that Patrick! Maybe I put that there subconsciously?

 

[Katie]

It grabbed my attention immediately and the bicycle is great - I really think it adds to the painting.

 

[Artyczar]

Thank you so much for your kind words Katie. It's great to see you!
