In sept 2017 I visited Teton Range and Yellowstone NP. I am still in contact with our guide, Helen.
We meet on IG and blogs. She posted a photo from her last trip to the Norris Basin. I decided to try to paint it. The above is the result. From the start it was really just a try to find the right blue colors to the hot water. So, this is just a simple A4 paper. Maybe later on I´ll try this or one of mine, on watercolorpaper. This photo was squared so not A4 size.
I found a new friend that has an oldfashioned countryside shop.
I took some photos and ideas as well and played around in PS.
The lantern in the center I bought it. It is now on my balcony. It looks like a birdnest.

I guess this might not perfectly meet Rains promt Villains this week. As it is really an Archangel doing the kill. But, might be close enough. In my eyes - Evil is evil no matter the situation.
This figurine is a gift from my daughter and granddaughter. They know I love angelwings like the one in my header. That angel too is a gift from them. If they had looked closely to the bottom of this piece they might not have bought it. I have a problem with accepting bad things, so, if I don´t comment too much on your posts this week I hope you forgive me. But I will visit!

Ohh these are wonderful Monica. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteMonica, I know how you feel about bad things from our conversations. I love the Archangel defeating evil. And your watercolour is beautiful! xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pieces!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, evil is evil. And there's too much evil in the world! My Auntie used to say, 'A villain in a posh suit and polished shoes is still a villain! Have a great day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteYou captured the blues in a beautiful way in your first piece Monica, beauty always outshines evil in so many ways. Happy PPF take care of yourself Hugs Tracey x
ReplyDeletethanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat art projects, and I especially love your beautiful painted scene at the top!
ReplyDeleteI like the blue water.
ReplyDeleteNice art. Luv your St Michael
ReplyDeleteMuch💜love
:)
ReplyDeleteI love your painting and I know the water is hot so it looks hot. I am not sure there is a way to paint water hot ... maybe put some steam coming off of it. Your photo shopping is always excellent. I love the lantern and it wouldn't surprise me if it became a birds next in the spring. Yes and the Archangel is killing the devil who is the villain in the scene. Beautiful piece of art. Your daughter and granddaughter sure enjoy you ... you are lucky to have them close. My granddaughter just graduated college then promptly moved away ... :( Stay well my friend ... get your booster and your flu shot, then all will be well :)
