Mary – you are wise and I don’t even think you needed to tell us that you were going for emotion. Your piece has a total ephemeral vibe. Like passing over … or brief second in time. Sort of like movies divulge when portraying ghosts that disappear into thin air. That kind of thing. Well … shadowing is good, great even, but it’s not always inclusive in art. Many graphic arts don’t use shadowing at all. Your’s works and you know what, that’s what counts, right? Great choice on song, too. I thought of that one, but went with Cash instead. I hope more people play as there are a veritable smorgasbord of songs with WALK in the title.
Did anyone besides me go looking for color charts after Carole’s class the other day? I will admit I already had some favorites I made and stored, but I did go look. There is great inspiration out there in any of the painting supply houses, but then again, there were a ton of options readily available on Google. I found a load of ones, that were generated by movie films. Movies have great lighting and often use colors we don’t often keep in our day to day visionary scheme. If you get time, go look, some of them were awesome.
