Monday has arrived! I know everyone is not yet ready to face a new week. We are still craving for that weekend’s rest. Let’s look at our local artist’s work in today’s Monday article!
Watercolor has a sense of tranquility when you see a piece. I have always been interested in art, and watercolor has always piqued my interest. One of the accounts that I follow on Instagram is that of a local artist. She does watercolor portraits and bookmarks and her artworks are truly inspiring.
Take this image for instance. Although she hasn’t posted new artworks but her previous works strike some semblance of peace inside you. The combination of colors as it transitions from light to dark offers a relaxing sensation. I love how the first bookmark shows a mountainous horizon yet it plays with the purple hue, capturing a night sky in a different color.
The second bookmark still depicts a night sky, but this time in an open field. The white, black, and purple play creates a familiarity as if you have seen this exact location before. The touch of pink in the piece also gives another layer of beauty.
The last image is my favorite. It shows a lonesome man in the wilderness amongst a sea of clouds. I love the subtle blend of baby blue and lavender in this image. The subtleness of the two colors simply blends together and produces a new layer on how we can see firmaments during the night. It even appears there’s a hint of lightning between the clouds, hinting at an impending storm. I love the part where only one figure is in the last image. A silhouette of a man overlooking the horizon, somehow unworried of the coming storm.
