ART BY LYNNE FORRESTER: BLOG - 30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS, DAY ELEVEN - 'MOMENTARY HOPE'

posted by Lynne Forrester

Unforgiving conditions have resided for hours and the world seems sore from constant buffeting. The setting sun bursts through the grey heaviness in a final attempt to warm the day. It's momentary but enough to show hope - and enhance the beauty of the greyness that is so easy to overlook.

posted by Lynne Forrester

Stillness pervades the bay and everything starts to recover after days of raging gales. Tidying themselves up, mopping their chins and ironing clothes, the air takes on a sense of peaceful purpose. Quickly recuperating, the air takes on a more nurturing quality and colours start to bloom amongst the clouds - gradually delicate and flowery in their elegant blooms.

THE ONE WISH

Digital Art. Mixed 2018. A fragment from ”The Star of Wishes” “Look at this! My boy...This is a Virtual Sierra Nebula...the our candle of the live...the place where we all were born...My son...” said The Great Bear...I saw fantastical beautiful Sierra Nebula`s clouds with a big spectral city around the big black spectral circular building in the middle of the city. “She was born from the memories of space somewhere in this city...She went from the unknown forgotten ancient universe...The Great sorceress of Space...The Star of Wishes...And now she is in demon`s hands...The all universe might to die”...sadly said the Great Bear. The Virtual sky get changed again...The small black square continued get down deeper and deeper to the abyss of universe...I understood...We`re too far away from the Earth...”

ART BY LYNNE FORRESTER: BLOG - 30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS, DAY NINE - 'YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL WHEN YOU'RE ANGRY'

Purple depths seethe hotly against the coolness of stark winter blues. A brooding furnace of passion rises as the white curls float warily on the surface, like startled dandelion heads caught in webs. Bright skies gradually allow the emboldened indigos to take their space, bowing to the increasing magnificence whilst in awe of the textured beauty and muttering 'you're beautiful when you're angry'.

MEMORY OF ST PETERSBURG

posted by federico cortese

When, in my holidays, I go to visit a seaside town or a river town, it often happens that I am involved into the classic tourist trip on the boat, or vessel. Such an experience, by definition, is a little superficial: the distance from the coast, the movement, the limited time, all these elements combined together make the perception confused. But at the same time, perhaps for the fact that the focus can not dwell deeply on anything specific, the end of this experience gives a reminder of the whole, that could reveal the spirit of that place. It 's true, the details are confused, the facades of the buildings overlap, we are no longer sure if the front of that palace was on the Grand Canal or the Giudecca, but probably at the end of the journey, that will remain our most intense memory of Venice.
