Rock portrait #7 2010

Rockportrait#72010

Resumed painting still life

compositions of rocks.

My own idea, I came across

paintings of rocks by Georgia O' Keefe

however and even more recently star

Jennifer Aniston is posed sitting in a

towel on beach rocks

for the ad of her new perfume.

So I am in good company.

Hope you enjoy this image.

Have a pay-attention-to-spirit

kind of day.

Helen.

Another entry in my series

of still life paintings of rocks.

Hope that you enjoy this

image.

Have a challenge-yourself

with-something-new kind of day.

Helen.

Rock Portrait #4 2010

This is the next in my series of

still life paintings of rocks.

Former editor of House and Garden,

Dominique Browning, also collects

beach rocks. She has carried them

home from afar even carrying them

onto airplanes. See her blog at

slowlovelife.com. She writes

in a deeply personal fashion

and her site is one of the blogs

I read daily. Her site may also

be of particular interest to gardeners

as she is passionate about her garden.

Hope that you enjoy this image.

Rock Portrait #3 2010

Another still life painting of rocks.

Love the shapes. The deep blue is

actually an irridescent acrylic paint.

Hope that you enjoy this image.

Have a slow-down-and-pause

once-in-a-while kind of day.

Helen.
