"A Vessel" ($30.00)

(adjusted price.....$30.00)

The quote today is like an "over the top" statement of the obvious. However, knowing that we all have different qualities does not make us happy. What gives us peace and contentment about who we are is accepting that we each have a set of God given qualities that make us unique. By keeping your eyes focused on your own "running lane"...you can have joy in knowing your vessel is unique to you and only you can be all that you were created to be. You're unique!

This piece is a strong graphic. The contrasts are strong and all the edges are hard. It's in your face! If you are making a poster or trying to communicate a message that needs to be noticed and read...this is the technique for such an occasion. Black and white ( or almost white) plus one or two other colors works every time it's tried.

In other cases, you might want the lettering to be a lot more subtle. I often do. It all depends on what you want the viewer to notice first and how close you want them to be to your piece before reading it. In some cases, you might not want it to be read at all!

The technique of painting these pots was simple. The texture was initially over the entire space. All I needed to do was paint the negative space around each one and add shading around the opening. It's fun to try and most silhouette shapes will work. Just something to think about and perhaps try.
