262 - BUTTERFLY FLOWER - DAVE EDWARDS - COLOURED PENCILS - 2009 by BLYTHART

This flower grows on the lush banks of my imagination. It’s difficult to define whether it is a flower or a butterfly. When it’s asleep I suppose it is a flower, but when it wakes, as it is doing here, it becomes a butterfly living inside a plant and occasionally flying off for a while. I used coloured pencils for this. And yes, I was a little inspired by Tiffany lampshades :) THIS WAS FEATURED BY THE FINE ARTS GROUP- 2nd July 2009.

the eternal sea by Karön Melillo d'Vega

Featured in Impressionist Art June 2009 / Featured in Fine Arts 27 June 2009 / Featured in Freedom in Words & ART June 2009 early one morning i waked from a dream with this image in my mind. i was in the sea and the colours were vibrant and brilliant – the world was so surreal i got out of my bed and immediately began painting this work. after about 5 hours i set my paintbrushes down. the painting stayed untouched for several years. one day i felt compelled to paint the image of the horse glowing in bright light. there is a native american flavour. while i am only 1/4 native american, i am strongly and inherently influenced by my native heritage “the eternal sea” is my self-portrait / started in 2000 finished in 2004 multi-media / Acrylics / Acrylic Laquers / Acrylic Enamels / Glitter Gels / Acrylic Metallics 20×16 inches / premium canvas panel

There are movements which impinge upon the nerves with a strength that is incomparable, for movement has power to stir the senses and emotions, unique in itself. This is the dancer’s justification for being, and his reason for searching further for deeper aspects of his art.” / — Doris Humphrey (1895-1958) Part of a series of dances…. / / / / /

Recent Work

Giant Kingfisher by Debbie Schiff

This little guy was pictured sitting on the edge of a causeway somewhere in the Kruger National Park area. This is the larger of the Kingfisher species.Common in the southern eastern parts of South Africa. In pairs or singly, they are found near wooded rivers or dams sitting on bridges or wire waiting for movement in the water. Hover briefly before diving in to catch their prey! Painted on Waterford 356gsm watercolour paper using mainly W/N professional paints. I was inspired with this photo taken by a friend Christa Tappe. Colours used…..FUMB, B Sienna, a touch of L Yellow.
Portrait of Alan Bidstrup by Lynda Robinson

Pastel on Burgundy Colourfix Paper – 70cm x 50cm Each year for the Seymour Agricultural Show I do a portrait of one of the members of the Seymour Pastoral & Agricultural Society. In 2005 it was the turn of this fine, upstanding gentleman who is very well known and respected in the area, having been farming in the district, with his family, for many years. I really enjoy portraits of men who have reached ‘a certain age’, and who have so much character in their faces. (Ladies in a similar situation always want to be made to look younger for some reason)!!! I achieved a good likeness with Alan, and he was very pleased with the result and now has it proudly displayed over his mantlepiece! This work was featured in the group ‘Mature Men’ – Jan 2009

About This Group

The appreciation of all styles and mediums in art making (No photography please).

So this is the group for all you Fine Art Artists
(please no Photography or Digital Art, there is a Fine Art Photography group for your beautiful Photographs)
a few rules though….

1. Only TWO works per day.
(if you put more than two on, I will accept two and reject the others.)
2. All Fine Art mediums (drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture etc)
3. No photographs or digital works please, as there are plenty of groups on Redbubble already existing for photography and digital art.
4. Nudity is accepted if painted or drawn, no photographs again, no photoshop art.
5. No writing unless it is writing about your art making, other artists, exhibitions and questions about art or materials – but remember we have forums that we’d like you to participate in and they are a more appropriate place to write in.
6. IF YOU SEND EITHER myself or a cohost abusive emails than you will be removed from from the group, if you cannot speak nicely, than you can join another group.
Thanks everyone. BillyLee
