Great Blunders Are Often Made, Like Large Rope, Of A Multitude Of Fibers

by François-Xavier De Costerd

This piece spoke of travel. A journey through time, space, and discovery. To search.

The proportions work, with the weight toward the lower corner as in the human form and nature. Yes, it’s a map from above but the red winds as a river with black punctuating, resting until more discovery with the little squares and the control of the repetition of the grid.

"Sophia In Blue"

by J S Murdock

The beautiful sanguine repose….

It's not a complicated image but impossible to attain. What is she looking at, what is she thinking about? There is a soft movement, a gesture.

The application of medium fits the mood with delicate strokes of pastel/pencil drifting in and out of the figure. Well done!

"Stonington House"

by Paul McMahan 

Watercolor is hard. The forethought in this painting of necessary white spaces is masterful/

The perspective emboldens the importance of such an iconic New England Mansard Roof home. The pallet is superb.
