What is aesthetic art? If you start to think of it, many forms of art have to do with aesthetics. After all, we as human beings love to have a sense of balance in all things around us and that includes art. We all know that art in its many forms is not always being pretty or balanced and that is why there is the need for aesthetic art, which precisely propagates that – aesthetics. You get this sense of harmony, flow and rightness when you look at such things as stunning ballerina drawings and sketches because they do have an aesthetic aura to them.

Let's get this clear right off the bat... I do not think of myself as a SUPERHERO! But, since my life has been transformed by the grace of God, I know that I have powers beyond myself. So, from the point I spiritually transformed, I put on a "red cape" of righteousness. Here is my testimony... He begins our life before we are even born!

Embrace the essence of Autumn with a captivating abstract interpretation that transports you to the heart of Glencoe, wrapped in the warmth of the season's palette. This piece harmoniously blends a patchwork of geometric forms to represent the iconic scenery, ignited in rich, vibrant hues. Strokes of burnt orange, mellow yellows, and deep, earthy tones reconstruct the traditionally undulating landscape with a contemporary twist. Central to the scene, distinct trees stand with their leaves ablaze in fiery reds and oranges, evoking the essence of Autumn’s transformation. They present a stark, natural contrast to the linear precision of the surrounding abstract elements. The hills and valleys of Glencoe are suggested through sweeping colour gradients that capture the shifting light and shadow, while transecting lines and blocks of colour imbue the print with a sense of rhythm and movement. A masterpiece that is both a nod to nature's splendour and an ode to the abstract form, this print offers an intriguing juxtaposition between the organic and the geometric. It is an artful statement piece that invites contemplation and conversation, ideal for those who appreciate the dramatic changes of the seasons mirrored through a bold, artistic lens. Bring the atmosphere of Glencoe's autumnal majesty into any space with this exquisite abstract tribute to one of the most enchanting times of the year.

A blog about sharing elementary art lessons. With a twist of fun on the side.

I spent a week in Thailand in May and got to visit the incredible White Temple in Chiang Rai. Among many oddities and dark artforms were sculptures of hands reaching out of a pit - hundreds of them. Some with faces buried in the palms, others with middle fingers sticking in the air, and more still with twisted horror-like shapes wrapping around them. It was one of the most inspiring places I've stumbled upon in my travels. I decided to take inspiration from that temple and create this image - being pulled into the darkness, being lifted from it. The interpretation is yours, and depending on the day, changes for me.

The Zentangle tangle Striping isn't simply any old stripes. It's a method of placing striped sections beside each other for interesting effects. Sandy Bartholomew, CZT, offers simple step-outs for Striping on her blog here. One key, of course, is the pencil string; it just doesn't have the same effect if the (guide)lines are in pen. Here is an example of striping, pure and simple, albeit in brown on a Renaissance tile. In a home decor flyer a while ago, I noticed a vase with some twisted stripes. Here's the photo torn from the flyer, and the first tile I did trying this twisted effect. You may want to start with the same 'S' shape you would use for Tidings. Don't. Instead, draw two lines, each with one droplet shape at the end, going in opposite directions. I'm using a five-sided string, but this can be done in a variety of shapes. You want a white stripe immediately next to the 'line and droplet' so you need an ODD number of stripes going through the middle, between the lines. To ensure that, make a series of dots, an EVEN number of dots, between the lines. Next, draw a series of Auras beside each line and around the droplet, passing through each dot. The width of the stripe around the end of the droplet can be wider than the stripes through the middle. Splay the lines out at the end away from the droplet. Extend the lines to the edge of your string. Follow the curves of the lines you've drawn and add more lines. You can do this as I show below, by adding a line at each side, filling around the droplet with stripes, and adding stripes into the triangle point. OR, a simpler method is to fill the entire two sides with lines meeting in the corner near the droplet, as you would draw Munchin. Making sure you leave the stripes beside the droplets white, fill alternate stripes black. Don't forget to shade it (I didn't, below.). And voilà! In the tile below, I began with a 'leaky pen border' and did the twisted Striping in the center, adjusting it as it met the marks at the border. It can be lovely in browns or in color, too. And no one said you're limited to one twist! In the first tile below, I used - I think - five different brown pens plus white, and three or four brown colored pencils. The second began with an orange paint spill. Then I used yellow, orange, red, brown, and sepia pens and three or four colored pencils. Here is some twisted Striping along with other bold black-and white tangles: Tangles: Black Pearlz, Bunzo, Striping with a twist, Moving Day, Pearlz, Zonked Have fun!
