Winter On 3rd

 


Winter On 3rd

Finally I made it till winter. It wasn't easy to paint 4seasons with just colors without changing the composition but it was some learning experience. By painting them I had some understanding about colors, specially textures that I never thought about applying paints, guess I'll never know until I try them.

It is still pretty hot in Los Angeles but my heart longs for a bit of cooler weather. I'm enjoying much simpler images lately at the same time exploring different shapes, colors and textures.

Summer On 3rd

Summer is here on 3rd street! I was going to paint with hot colors but somehow I ended up with mostly cool colors. I thought I might feel the heat by painting cooler colors, does it make any sense? Anyway exploring the seasons continues.

Spring On 3rd

 


Spring On 3rd

Since I started taking photos manually I realized something, for a long time I have forgotten how to see things around me. Being in my familier environment I somehow forgot to pay more attention to whatever comes into my line of sight. Staring at a window I was infatuated by this bouquet of flowers, the more I look the more I mesmerized by it. At first I thought how boring it was but by staring at it for a long time I was so infatuated by it, colors,shapes and textures. I could almost smell the scent from the street. Hard to explain but I loved it! Simply by changing my attitude, just strolling the neighborhood can be something special, best of all its free!

Homebound

 




Homebound

29"x29" oil on canvas

Is it just me to have the urge to hit the road without planning anything, no direction and no destination. Wondering over ride my fear of everything with my curiosity. New roads, new landscape, new town, new aroma, new people, new light and new sounds.....it's a luxury to experience unknown at first hand this day and age. I should hurry and get going still I can walk and nothing hurts on my body. I still love to embrace living with my own senses before it's too late.

A Camera

 


A Camera

24"x29" oil on canvas


Recently I purchased a camera out of necessity although I had not much of interest in photography. All I wanted was just a point and shoot camera but this camera started getting under my skin against my intention. Once I switched to manual mode, something magical things started happening. Like a riding a bicycle, taking off the training wheels is the scary things to do but once I started playing with all the manual settings, I was hooked. Loves the feel of the metal andi it has just right amount of weight further more it nicely nestles in my hands. The more pictures I take the more this camera grows on me. Switching from full auto to full manual, I never guessed it would be this much fun.

Route 66

 

 

Route 66

29"x29" oil on canvas

Off the beaten path I made a pit stop in the middle of nowhere, all I hear was crickets chirping while I was enjoying the sent of fresh grass. It's so peaceful and relaxing.  I was standing there for  a long time just being thankful that I could embrace the moment.
