back at home in Helsinki (Finland)

 

Hi everyone!

 

I’m back at home,

it’s good to sleep in my own bed again 🙂

The weather in Helskinki has been okay,

no snow, no ice – yet.

I’ve even seen some sunshine, jihuuuu!

 

In Málaga I photographed trees…

Geometric Friday

 

 

I tried to sketch a palm tree,

with ink and water…

Here’s a detail…

This is how it looks….

somehow I like this,

what do you think? Is black and white boring?

  1. There certainly are geometrics in all of nature and the palm trees are a beautiful example. I love your drawing as well. I probably prefer just the trunk because along with seeing it as a trunk, I can see many smiling faces in it. I love art that allows the observer to interpret from their own imagination. Thanks for stopping by my blog …

  2. I like the tree trunk —you caught the essence of the texture well.

    When I saw the small icon on Geometric Friday, I thought it was a tall, cylindrical glass vase, so was pleasantly surprised to see it was a painting.

    Black and white can be dramatic. Without color, we are more likely to look at shapes and lines without regard to color.

    As an artist, I tend to work with color more than B&W, but on some images B&W looks better than color.

  3. It’s always good to be back home. I don’t think the black and white palm tree is boring at all- I love it!! Best wishes for a happy holiday, and happy PPF too!
