Digital art, abstract fractal. This abstraction reminds me of some hi-tech buildings, devices, style and so on... Technological image,

Watercolor on paper.

Soft Beachy Feel abstract acrylic painting. My large entry needed a new painting, something calm to not distract from an ornate carved table below it. I love the ocean, the beach and painted this abstract scene to bring that feel into the room. So relaxing and dreamy to look at :)

A painting of a yellow calla lily, also known as zantedeshia.

The face of the universe

I thought this would make a nice scene--five ladies, each with a hand extending from behind--makes a curious piece that creates a few questions: Are they waiting on someone? Are they playing a game? Why are they there? What's going to happen next?

New Groupings from the Judaic Series....

Natalie, I love Antonia!

This is called "The Holdout". Someone who refuses to conform despite what's around them. The lesson here is always be yourself. This is a 3D rendering, modeled and rendered in Vue, textures and final paintwork done in Photoshop. This image took me about 3 weeks to complete. It's not a new idea, there are houses like this in the world an in other artwork, but I wanted to do a version in my own style!

The tiger is my spirit animal. As this magnificent creature is endangered, I want to bring its beauty and plight to light.

A woman flamenco dancer...with an aged crackle technique.

part of a story i am inventing, a space pilot jumping into a black hole because he has no chance of surviving. i read that you see the future unfold in an accelerated way once you pass the event horizon.

Tango dancers lighting up the floor with sass and color!

Was a bit wiped out after these 2 versions of a Chinese landscape.. seemed to struggle with location and size of objects but I think I got it!

Sorry wrong discussion

Sorry wrong discussion.

This is my impression of orchids slowly cascading into a sea of various shades of violet, purples and lavenders. I especially wanted these flowers to appear to be floating in the air.

An perfect day at the fair would be sure to include a ride on the gigantic ferris wheel, joining the 103 other delighted passengers in a free-wheeling ride way up in the air to experience from far above all the festive sights and sounds on the midway down below.

Only On Topsail uses the popular photograph The Best Kept Secret to accommodate a couple of hippos! It's fun. It's cute. And only on Topsail.

Creating this series based on my experience with Lyme Disease, the classic bullseye rash that sometimes appears, and the emergence of even more deer ticks than usual this year...

The fabric of space conveniently folds into regular clock-time intervals, with meandering swirls showing faintly through the orderly hours, and thankfully surrounded by a few glowing ribbons of imagination to remind us to save a bit of time for playful expression and free-spirited improvisation.

Digital art, abstract fractal. This image tells me about two things which are rather close to each other but other different the same moment. I mean I see here mirror in an abandoned house. Spiders enveloped this mirror with their webs. But on the other hand, I see here another kind of web. I see here the Internet which is also a mirror for our world.

Painterly version of a photograph I took of a girl walking on a dirt road surrounded by pine trees and vines.

Rhythms of Life by Natalie Holland. Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances. ~ Maya Angelou

Homage to Gary Kendall, by VIVA Anderson, is my homage to an FAA painter/member, who I admired for his elegant, minimal art, and whose support I so appreciated. This is painted in the tradition of minimalism,with the palette knife and rich,heavy texture.

Koi 2 by Phyllis Beiser.

The Circle is a Nvidia Iray 3D render with twelve elephants walking in a circle. Lots to think about here, exampled by what's in the image and what is not. Contemplate the circle, the direction, each elephant, what each one is doing, where they are going, where they have been, where they are, why are they in such a perfect circular formation, what are they accomplishing, what are they thinking, what is their goal, how long have they been doing this, how long will they continue, what will stop them, what will keep them going, what message are they sending, could they be considered a unit, yet is each one an individual, are they related, how are they related, how do they differ, how simple is the image, how complex, is there symbolism, what about concepts, do you see patterns, what kind of patterns, could this be related to life, how could it be related to life, perhaps a situation, perhaps a lifetime, how does this apply to your life, how does this apply to the life that you observe, what would you do to change it, how would you do it, what effects would the change have, what structuring do you see, what does the structure mean, is it an acceptable structure, is this something you would apply to your life, what strengths do you see, what are some of the weaknesses, what about positive effects, how about negative effects, what are some consistencies, what are some inconsistencies?

The human reach extends beyond the waters edge.

The Obsessive Thought. How many of us have had this happen?

Graceful lavender strands twist gently above seven large translucent pastel blue and purple beads as they float past a row of luminous peachy orange waving bumps, all drifting by, by and by.

My grandaughter picked a bunch of wild flowers from her garden, a gift to me and placed them in small glass jar.
I used watercolour marker pens for this chosen time, to give a bright and colourful affect.

Here is my latest pastel art of a pretty yellow pumpkin blossom. I think they are one of the more ornamental flowers of the vegetable garden.

3D rendered scenes using Nvidia Iray--love working with these elephants.

A pastel landscape of a scene in upland farm country in Central NY.



An acrylic painting of three geese taking a break on a pond in upstate NY during their spring migration.

Non-objective abstract art on a dark background. Ominous feel? I hope so.

Part of a new series featuring a common color palette. Trying to design this series to work well on fabric—pillows, t-shirts, bags, towels, etc. Products that work better with an irregular border.

Pen and Ink watercolor " The Happy Couple"

Just a silly cow I almost painted over. I enjoy painting cows and farm scenery. I live in a rural area in Michigan, so there is lots of inspiration here to paint from.

Ancient Treasure, painting by VIVA Anderson, is my imaginative, abstract, response to the splendid secret vaults of the Pharaohs, the glow of golden light within the gilded walls of their tombs, where they resided in the afterlife, among their treasures.

These two paintings, depicting the beginning and the end of the Sabbath, align themselves visually as well as spiritually. I had no idea until I placed them side by side today....not surprised!

Took this shot during the pm light, the urban abstractions are everywhere, did a bit of color touch... here it is... simplicity is the key, thnx

Fairy Tales and Mother Goose meet in the forest in this creative piece for children. Is there an old woman who lives in the shoe? Where are her children. Are these two Hansel and Gretel? And why is the dog bewildered? Make up your own story to add imagination to creative art.

My Global Warning Piece (yes, I spelled it that way). The title is "Let it Floe" (yes, I spelled it that way on porpoise).

Ice floes are where polar bears hunt seals (but not Croft). This animal looks like a siamese polar bear, but there are no polar bears in Siam (and there is no Siam anymore, either). I'll just call it a thing. So the Thing is sitting on the ice with floes behind him (her?). Having a drink? Of course! Things go better with ... oh, you know.

There have been comparisons made between the unconscious and the abyss in philosophy and psychology-be the moon breaking out of and rising above the abyss.

My latest compilation of pieces of abstract expressionist paintings....

Something fun to do with my day...

Pen and Ink watercolor inspired by the first motorcycle I rode as an 8 year old kid.

Good evening from London. The Grind Don't Stop

A new little work finished recently which helps convey how fish can be camouflaged in their own environment.

Digital art, abstract fractal. This is just my fantasy. I don't know where can be such order and which benefits it gives to its owner, but I think that it can look like that.

"Hawk At Heckrodt" oil pastel on panel. As I consider the frame as part of the artwork because I make my own frames, this one is finally done, even though the drawing was done last year...it waited to be complete until today. The frame is Chechen, Canary Wood and Walnut. The hawk really did pose for me like that in the photo that I used as a reference...a fake hawk.

Purple Magic Flower by Anna Bliokh.

This dynamic abstract Sunrise is full of brilliant oranges and yellows and crackles with kinetic energy and movement.

Pen and ink drawing.

Hello everybody!!

There are little panda - shots, being made in Chengdu, China.

Derivative art. (Maybe I should start a thread for derivative art since it is neither photography nor "traditional" art but it is still sometimes both and more.

This started with a photo (the busker). It evolved using Photoshop, painting on a WACOM pen screen, blending, color adjustments, and much much more.

A single illuminated labyrinthian line winds its way round and round this illuminated clockface mandala, never beginning, never ending, perpetually marking the endless sweeping of time from present into past.

Here's one. It's a pastel.

this piece is of kings college in Cambridge england

https://fineartamerica.com/featured/tin-zebra-jean-jonquiere.html

Colorful whipping tendrils surround a rustic warm purple daisy with lyrical looping petals and a glowing yellow-green center, all hovering above an organic bowl with rhythmic waves of leafy undergrowth.

Minimalist watercolor landscape. It's also an experiment in several different watercolor techniques: coarse sea salt for texture, rolling a length of twine across pools of colored water for ditto, wadded-up tissue paper to absorb colored water to create soft-edged light areas, liquid mask applied with a sharpened stick to create the illusion of tall grass, scoring the paper with a needle to create the illusion of tree trunks in the forest in the background, and a lot of thirsty-brush work.
