Spring Awakening


Easter and Passover seem to be a good reason to re-connect.
This image, also a crop from my Original acrylic, is quite different
from all previous work and is the first image to be digitally altered.

Only the color and hues have been altered from the original painting.
In tribute to the sculptor, Giacometti, I look to minimalism to see which hues reveal the most information;and here I see success in the
revelation of
the amythyst-robed figure floating effortlessly
above the Early Spring garden barely noting two lovers embrace
in the lower right corner.

Remembering Paris

C'est La vie en rose...
It appears to be the most impressionistic, in flavor,
of all my details to date. What Do You See?
My focus and impression is on the sunlit cheek of a once elegant white-haired
woman in purple feathered chapeau, head slightly bent,
reflecting on images surrounding her life and times in Paris
years gone by.

I also see a piece of added amusement:
the painter in white smock at center bottom,
fully bearded, facing right (I chuckled).
