Tuesday Textures in Art

Posted on February 8, 2022 by Mama Cormier

…I love texture in art

I am very much drawn to colour when it comes to art but I also love the use of actual textures. It is very hard not to touch art that uses textural materials. At WAAC there is a show on right now, called Collage and there are several pieces with loads of texture. I’m a big fan of Deniz Seker, Janet Potter, Margaret Rodgers and now Catharina Goldnau.

When I go to a upscale department store the last thing I expect to see is a display of oddly coloured and oddly arranged fuzzy slippers.

In the neighbourhood we have utility boxes that are normally grey and boring but lately artists when bee commissioned to paint them. Here are a few in my neighbourhood.

Lucille is an Odd Duck….

Posted on February 5, 2022 by Mama Cormier

…or should I say bird?

Lucille may be odd looking but she brings a smile to my face as does most of the art that Deniz Seker makes. She is one of the artists that is a member of WAAC and one of the first people that I was instantly drawn to when I first joined the Women’s Art Association. Thanks Deniz for introducing Lucille to us at the Collage Show.

Coloured Snow – Square Odds

Posted on February 3, 2022 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to Becky B for hosting February Squares, https://beckybofwinchester.com/2022/02/03/the-square-odds-3/

Clearly the snow is coloured by humans and I suspect there are children in this house who had a wonderful time creating these colourful discs of ice to add to the snow bank on their front yard.
