My rushed entry for Inspiration Avenue's Architecture challenge.
I didn't really have time this week, but then suddenly a spare few minutes caught up with, boffed me on the head and said "slow down chickie" - relax and make some art. So I did!
Some more collage practice. A holiday home from Uruguay with delicious yellow walls set against the bluest of skies made abstract then given a bit of a colour and texture boost in photoshop to really. Funny how such a confusion of images still says 'South American'. Well, it does to me anyway.
I loved the headline - Concrete Poetry -a verse or two away from some of the monstrosities gracing our cities today. But it's true, there can be so much beauty in the unlikely.
I cut the images out of World of Interiors magazine. Gosh I love that publication. Imagine being a photographer and journalist for them, travelling the world in search of the most magical of abodes. I'm part way compiling a blog post on my dream house. I would be lying if I didn't admit to snippets of ideas making their way from these glossy pages. Country Life also makes its presence felt in my dreams.
This is a lovely abstract Lisa! The yellow and blue work very well together and the repeated lines are really interesting.
ReplyDeleteI also love the phrase you use - "beauty in the unlikely" - I believe beauty is everywhere, it's just a matter of learning how to look I think :)
Very nice - I love the colors used here and I agree it does say 'South America'.
ReplyDeleteNice work - How do you just produce this on the spur of the moment?

I love the title of this piece, the colors and the little jolt of red at the top. Reminds me of a playground ;)
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to your dream house post.
What a fantastic idea!

ReplyDeleteVery cool
So modern and lively! I like it! And the bright vibrant colors do say "South of the Border"!

ReplyDeleteagree with you that beauty can be found in unlikely places...most places really.
Very cool looking,love the colors.
ReplyDeleteYa.... it's very cool Lisa!! I love the colors that you've used!! It all works very well together!
