This art work is encaustic on board, and I love the "feel" of the image. Have you ever stood on a dock at night and watched lights shimmer on the water? Sometimes the reflections are many more than the lights creating them. Perhaps the lights on the water create a time of magic for you. Perhaps they cause you to reflect on the past and into the future. Perhaps a revelation is born in your mind. A thousand lights. A thousand new ideas. The plot of a novel. A new innovative thought for a painting.
"Lights on Dark Waters" is a special image for me. What do you think?


The darkness of the background is marked, very brightly by the yellows and whites. I could easily imagine the whites are from the lights of the city where the yellows are the stars in the sky. I love your paintings and how they are formed by the title you give them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like lights from a campground. I see the hazy smoke, too.
ReplyDeleteBirgit and Diane, I appreciate your comments. I especially like to know what you see because, in these paintings, everyone has their own visions. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI actually see numbers as if the vision is trying to speak to me
ReplyDeleteWow, Birgit, that's interesting!
