Happy Christmas Eve

 

Mingus Christmas Eve 2016.

Mingus Christmas Eve 2016.

Sunny and 60 degrees this Christmas Eve.

Thought I would share this photo from last year. It was so beautiful.

And here is the painting it inspired. A gift  for my brother and his wife.

Joy to the world! The Lord is come;

Let earth receive her King;

Let every heart prepare him room,

And heaven and nature sing.

—Isaac Watts

Posted this tree on Instagram. Also some cool shots of these black birds.

 

 

Take a look if you haven’t seen them. Don’t forget to follow me, and I will follow you back!

 

Merry Christmas everyone!

Think I am ready to count the flower as done. Apologies for the bad image. It is breaking up a bit. Larry suggested that the large dark spots were conflicting with the yellow shapes in the center of the flower. I was only concerned with the two on the bottom. Looking again, I noticed just how distracting they were. Four corners of a square. So I painted over, added some new smaller splatter to fill the voids, and I am happy with the result. Thank you Larry!

And thanks to everyone who shared suggestions!

To the next small start, I added Shiraz Inktense lines. I see hills, snow. sky. Still considering adding textures. Had that idea in the beginning. Might be more to come with this one.
