Several different artists tackled spring this week.
All, of course, see the colorful season through different eyes.
That’s the whole idea of art — and “06880”‘s online art gallery.
No matter what your theme or medium — and whether you’re a first-timer or old-timer — we welcome your submissions. Watercolors, oils, charcoal, pen-and-ink, acrylics, digital, lithographs, collages, macramé, jewelry, sculpture, decoupage, needlepoint — we want whatever you’ve got.
Age, level of experience, subject matter — there are no restrictions. Everyone is invited to contribute.
Email it to 06880blog@gmail.com. Please include the medium you’re working in — art lovers want to know.
“Lily” — oil paints with cold wax (Sally VanDevanter)
“Spring Sunshine” — oil/acrylic on canvas (Dorothy Robertshaw)
“Central Park Conservancy” (Mary Sikorski)
Photographer Peter Barlow says: “The plants are called lupine. They are more common to Nova Scotia, but are growing in my Connecticut garden. The part I like best is the big round leaf with daisy petals. My garden needs some weeding.”
“Hang Ten” — acrylic abstract wave (Patricia McMahon)
“Sunset Geometry” — digital composition combining photographed elements and Photoshoop manipulation. Ken Runkel calls this “a meditation on the interplay between the natural world and human intervention, inviting the viewer to contemplate the beauty and fragility of our surroundings. It is a visual symphony of minimalism, geometry, and nature, designed to evoke a sense of tranquility and reflection.”
