Summer

 

Heat is here, and after a year of hibernation due to COVID-19, we are ready to reclaim our freedom. So enjoy an excellent refreshing view. God bless you all.

To begin with, it is a view from the Lower East Side. Watch it from the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, unique on its own. Summer is red hot by six o’clock. Moreover, there is much value in looking at it. Further, a meaningful gift that we have overcome the day.

Hence, enjoyment relies upon relaxing and enjoying today’s achievements. If not, there will be another time, for every day, the experience is different.

Water is one of the significant elements in the world, and so more often artists will dedicate the entire canvas to it. They usually enhance the scene with boats and trees. Or built ambiance with a sunset sky which is calming and relaxing. In addition, there is a three-minute video about this subject. Below is the link. Enjoy the music waving at the palette. Building layers in hazy tones.  Then there is a classification of color with dark tones. That creates a moody atmosphere on the water.

Alongside, the pure red and orange inspired me to create this subject. Afterward, this view brings back the memory of an abandoned place full of tales.
There are many advantages when using a la prima technique. It is unique in terms of direction; It makes you get off from the realism technique and the challenges that come with the composition.

“CITY REFLECTIONS”

Watercolor on bristle paper, 14″ x 17″ 2012

 Documenting these series is direct to actual events and another to visualize a projected image in a cold winter.  

Miles David’s sketches of Spain inspire the title. Further, a masterpiece of jazz came out in 1960. Buildings flowing like a fan recall the wind in the winter. The cadence within the image for New York seems to wave at people, “Hello.”

The painting above shows one of the challenges of its various cultures. It represents the solid foundation of New York. But as solid as it looks the forms reflect the blue passive moment from a hard day job. As a result, it makes everybody be part of it and create something new, just like his music.

Watercolor is known for being a transparent medium. Also called translucent, it is suitable for constructing forms, shadows, and highlight effects.

“INTO THE STORM”
WATERCOLOR ON BRISTLE PAPER 14″ x 17″ 2012

Hurricane Sandy hit Long Island very severely. Houses by the front beach flooded with water up to the second floor. Hearing the news announcing the storm was approaching a minute was scary. Then it hit an electric wire, and I stood there, asking for help inside the house. My mother was taking a shower, and suddenly the light went off. We stood without electricity for the cable for a week, and PSG electrical company did not want to move a line before fixing it. Bureaucracy among these companies never fails when one and the other must take charge. Everything came fast, a hardship memory we remember. These are events transformed into paintings. In the first illustration, blue is a calm color, but it is in chaos. They are waving forms in a circle to depict rage. Its dynamic flow over the watercolor paper. In the end, I’m able to blend these two subjectivity movements.

Showcase

 

Showcase, there is no other word to resume our pet’s name in categorizing, which is “faithful.” Indeed the dog does not hold boundaries to protect us. It will give its life away for us. Clumsy in youth but intelligent and versatile as they age, it sounds familiar, like humans. The only reason they do not talk is that god did not want them to, but they have an emphatical That amazes me.

SHOWCASE


While traveling in Costa Rica, taking pictures of the landmarks. I noticed a dog was sitting pensively and alone. Suddenly out of the blue, a pack of eight dogs walked next to me. I was on the floor on a narrow path. Of course, I got scared and did not move. There was an alpha dog in the front. It just looked at the sitting dog. He pointed it forward with its nose, and the dog followed him.

It is fun to paint animals further, for each has a character. Unfortunately, one died while painting it, but not on my account. The pet’s name is Kelly, and she has a sad face. Remember, a dog lasted twelve to thirteen years, and she could not hold sitting for more than a minute. Sadly but true is like she’s talking to us to put her out of her misery, poor thing.

Although, the portraiture is about three pets as a gift from Jacky to her grandsons. This painting I dedicated this to Kelly. Nevertheless, the subject demands how the piece will look at the end. Then

Lastly, oil media is complicated media to manage and relies on time, because of the layers. Then daytime and nighttime provide a different mood, and finally, to give it a flowing relies upon brushstrokes to recreate its similarity.
