This is the real
secret of life -- to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here
and now.
And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.
Alan Wilson Watts
The
images in the blog post are photographs I took of an old WWII bunker near Port
Townsend this last weekend. The Graffiti artists make marks, the park worker paint
over them, rust happens, along with the patina of time. I just came along and
"found" them. I am using some of them as part of my small collage
Recipe for fun: a day, a friend, my camera, time.
ReplyDeleteNext: collage with found images. - More fun!
sat down for a quick glass of water and
ReplyDeletefound you busy finding.
this is one of the reasons i like my batfone...that i can frame an image and see it without squinting and then capture it and keep it in my pocket.
the whirled is full of magic, we just need to keep our eyes open
je me réjouis de voir les collages! un petit salut...
ReplyDeleteFun is good! A magical recipe indeed!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are beautiful, Leslie. I love the header too. It reminds me of your paintings.
ReplyDeleteLAM - it is amazing what presents itself when we have time to slow down and look. Love the found paintings. Go well. B
ReplyDeleteI love it when if feels like play, those are the best moments.
ReplyDeletegreat finds! I do love old floors and bits of weathered buildings, rock faces, so many bits make great paintings! And fun, yes fun! That's my word for the year! Although I am liking my daughter's word, which is ease. I think they fit together nicely. Happy fun days!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful finds... so much texture and layers - very wabi sabi... amazing how they can look like real paintings.
ReplyDeletep.s. is your new header one of the found paintings? it is lovely.
ReplyDeletejust beautiful - sometimes I wonder why we even bother ourselves when all around us are such gems to be found, in graffiti, in nature .... yet for some of us the need to create is just primal. Look forward to seeing where you take these images.
ReplyDeleteWhat a spectacular eye you have Leslie. These are just small examples of how open you are to see the beauty waiting to be found in this world!
ReplyDeleteYour found paintings are wonderful! Can't wait to see them in your collage work.
ReplyDeleteLovely blog and lovely works. I will be adding your site to my blog list.
ReplyDeleteI love it when I see you have a new post. Your art is just so interesting and different. I love the neutral palette you use.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely way to see art.
