Moon

Over the last couple of month I have been inspired by the moon. The paintings I have created so far have sometimes a dreamlike feel to it but also depict what I experienced last March at a clear night at the Ross Creek Centre for the Arts in Canning.

I started to pay even more attention to the moon in the last couple of months. I will continue to explore the shades, the light, the lines and the night colours.

Post at Brain Pickings blog on Creative Rules

One day I will come up with my own rules, so that I can break them over and over again. (smile) For now I share with you the following post on Brain Pickings blog. Very inspiring. Please read on. 10 Rules for Creative Projects from Iconic Painter Richard Diebenkorn by Maria Popova   “Do search. But in order to find other than what it searched for.” On a recent visit to the Richard Diebenkorn: The Berkeley Years, 1953-1966 exhibition at San Francisco’s De Young fine arts museum , I was taken with a small, simple sheet of paper handed to visitors, printed on which were the artists’ ten rules for beginning a painting — a sort of manifesto that read more...
