a buxom country woman…. the title my friend gave this painting…… yeah… so it seems at first sight… but then is it really ? could she be something else…?? let’s hear a little more about Marguerite

answer to my friend’s email 🙂 :

Hello my Friend 🙂

I’m glad you like her  a buxom country woman … yes that’s what she seems to be..mmmmmh… but did you notice the scale pattern on her dress? Is it even a dress,  is it a fabric pattern … or could they be proper fish scales … making her a mermaid in disguise?? An elderly,  buxom one, but also mermaids grow older … 😉

and that is how this painting got it’s title……. MARGUERITE A BUXOM MERMAID. because yes… also mermaids grow older and expand a bit, well some do, others don’t. it is the same everywhere 🙂 so here she is…. Marguerite. i think she enjoys visiting our world, enjoys being in contact with humans… her family is big, but her children have moved out of their home, got married and had children of their own… same story everywhere. but Marguerite had one big wish … and that was getting in touch with us humans. her disguise is…. very down to earth 🙂 not what you expect a mermaid to look like. but then, how should mermaids look ? does it always have to be ‘glimmerglimmerglitzy? no certainly not. Marguerite likes her disguise, she sells fish on the market… and she is happy to be know as Marguerite, the fishmonger, and that is that….

Marguerite, a Buxom Mermaid in Disguise

so… Marguerite a Buxom Mermaid in Disguise would be the full title, but that’s a bit too long for some sites…. so let’s just stick to the original version.

Merci mes chers amis et amies … take care, have a lovely afternoon, enjoy it………. have fun 🙂

love and light to all ……….. Pat ❤ ❤ ❤ 🙂

p.s. yes of course she is for sale… if you are interested, just contact me through my DailyPaintworks.com homepage.

A Spring Greeting from Switzerland

… so now that i am here more often again … i am running out of titles …..

for my postings LOL 🙂 no seriously….. i just spontaneously opened this page without thinking what i was going to write. my art? yea… a bit i guess. my latest artwork….. 2 Dragons and a Unicorn… is an intutitive painting, as all of my paintings and/or drawings are. this latest one actually is a drawing… drawn on a painted background. so now you tell me… what is it. a drawing or a painting? i personally call it….. “mixed media drawing with collage background” … quite a mouthfull isn’t it… but then.. that is what it is.

is the concept of “intuitive art” difficult to understand ?? is it really? even though i tell everyone that my art just happens… i still get questions like.. what is you concept, what do you have in mind when you paint ?? … nothing.. that is just it.. i do not have anything IN MIND…… i just sit down and take out my paints, pencils or papers… glue them on to the paper, just going with what i feel is right… i do NOT have a conecept … or perhaps that IS my concept.. not to have one ?? who knows…. so before getting too technical and boring… here is my latest art….. 2 Dragons and a Unicorn.. i hope you enjoy 🙂

2 Dragons & a Unicorn

as usual… this art is for sale… for more info just contact me 🙂

have a lovely weekend all ! much love and light to you…….. pat

…from unicorns to queens and oracles …. symbolism rocks !!!

ok i have been quiet.. once again.. forgive me please 🙂 been running around a lot and unfortunately this takes its toll on me… i feel washed out and exhausted … my energy levels heading towards “very low”… however.. art keeps me awake.. energizes me even… well we all know, that art heals ! so art gives me all the good energy i need.. but …. writing something in my blog is a different story … …… anyway.. got nothing planned til next tuesday so i can rest…… and paint… and rest some more….. paint some more.. etc etc 🙂
so……… here is my latest painting.. all in acrylics.. AND on stretched canvas …… rather rare for me.

.. no i won’t add a title .. even if i am told to do so :)

no title

yes.. being a bit rebellious again…. but that is me…. this little mixed-media drawing just comes along without a title… nothing.. nada.. it is so totally up to you, the viewer, to create your own story from this. does it speak to you? yes ?? then what… where… who.. which one.. what is it, that speaks to you.. sparks your imagination to create your own story? i would love to hear that.. but i realize… i wont get any replies.. or perhaps just one or the other… it would be fun to hear what you have to say about it however….. 🙂

so i do wish you a lovely day.. enjoy it… make the best of it…. life is beautiful….. so … LIVE 🙂

here is my latest piece of art… from down below sealevel – see my previous blog entry – now we land in a garden.. my inner child makes us land there… in this – i have to say so myself – lovely monlit garden.. where a row of tulips is bathing in the light of the full moon… some nightcreature is flying towards the garden on the far right.. an owl perhaps ?? i don’t know, and the creature is not defined .. so let us just leave it as it is… flying into the night….

... or in other words... can you smell it ?? do you notice it ?? spring is in the air.. most definitely... yes it is still cold - around zero degrees centigrade - it's been freezing last week but now the temps are going up slightly... but.. the sky is blue and the sun is shining and there is just that SPRING feeling ... and that inspired me to a new series.. a new collection of digital art. yes i know.. i have been complaining about my computer being not equipped for really creating digital art... but i have the time to wait for it to "work" and do the necessary renderings ... taking it's own sweet time.. so i am going wild on flowers an blossoms.. and her are my first creations of that series 🙂 here is a list of where all these floral designs can be purchased..
