The is a saying in hebrew (though the translation is lame): Create your own teachers.
I recently did, I aquired two great teachers, one for touching colors, and one for touching the abstract.
Here are some works inspired by the first (I'll keep the second for nextime)..
A visit to
St. Chapelle, with its color-filled stained glass windows.
|
A cold day, inside the remains of the church, with huge windows, I was looking for a huge quiet and free place, but wound up in a small crowded place with admission fees.
In any case, the colors were stunning!

I loved this photo, for the phisical presence of the paper. |
|
Two markers at teh same hand. |
|
And a sketch to finish off |
Next Session, at the Cafeteria of Galerie Lafayette.
And this one truely surprised me... I let go the pencil and used just colors, and suddenly felt very Duffy-ish as the city-scape unravelled.
After doing the bottom half, I had to risk it, so I spilled random spots on top. I am really happy with this one!

I could stare at these ones for hours and not get enough. The first one is just something else, I always say it, but I must say it again and again, you have a unique style.....
