Look Out Wassily Kandisky — Here I Come!

I have comfortably settled into my Hanging Out With the Guys” gig. I have sketched trees, read books, found suitable creative music, taken charming photos, fetched the dog in the lake, and gotten a sore throat.

Now I’m ready for the real stuff.

Wassily Kandinsky is an artist famous for his Concentric Circles paintings. Loved his work. He seems to have won out as the biggest influencer of my future Art discoveries.

My goal this fine Friday morning is to start to create a series of circle paintings of my own. I’m thinking six to eight in the series, all based on a circle and a background and a title.

How Picasso-ish I feel!

These creations will not have the luxury of watercolor or oil paints or stretched canvas background., Glitter pens are in my forefront, along with plain markers and colored pencils. The designs will all be different, with a singular thread connecting them all.

These drawings will not win any prizes at the art fair; they won’t be on the cover of magazines or make the circle of modern art studios.

But they will be fun, and they will be mine.

I’ve been wanting to break out into another Creative field for some time now. My backups are still there – writing and crafting and rock painting, all fighting to be first in line behind me. But now (at least for the next two weeks) they’ll have to take their place behind a gel pen painters dream.

I’ll show you the paintings in a few weeks if they merit viewing.

If not, there’s always making homemade spaghetti sauce to fall back on …
