And what a wonderful selection the artists of Fish Hoek Art Society submitted for this latest challenge entitled REFLECTIONS. Be they human or visual, we received some lovely work and are sharing it here with you.
John starts the blog with his answers to the challenge. He sent a number of pictures (and you can see more of his work on the FHAS instagram page) which depict various interpretations of the theme.
He doesn't say in which medium they are painted but he did reveal that, during lockdown with curtailed movement, he's been looking at and finding inspiration in a number of works by well known masters. That's a good use of the internet and books. We should all do more of it.
The one above, right, is a great work John.
Below, Maugie brings a completely different slant on mankind through two acrylic paintings with a message which I quote:
"The reflection in the eye is what God sees in His heart and what we see through our sunglasses is so different and our perspective... Which is not the real picture"
Cynthia has produced a gorgeous and delicate watercolour using the reflections in the water. We are wondering where this is... Scotland? Cape?
Linda takes us to the Norwegian fjords where it is all about reflections in the water. It chills just looking at it. Good use of cool colours!
More water, below, from Fiona - a pastel this time.
Ann's water colour is also a delicate work. Just love those flapping wings
Marie also tackled a couple of white birds to great effect. This is done in water-based oil.
A delightful work.
Marcelle brings us nearer home with a scene we all recognise in this oil painting created from one of her own photos. Great pic Marcelle.
And while on Fish Hoek beach, we have a different look in acrylic by Fiona.
Ann sent in another watercolour picture of dawn - over False Bay also, perhaps. Marvellous colours.
Robin takes us travelling again with her vibrant boat scene which I reckon is either Vietnam or China (the flag is a help but not an answer!).
And lastly, another reflective piece in watercolour.
