Autumn Memories holiday Even the kids seemed alien

Even the kids seemed alien as they clustered into cliques by some unknown method

I printed a layer of dark ink to make their colorful watercolored wings glow

It reminds me of being in a crowded dance club with all the patrons competing to be heard

Cyanotypes are one of photography's oldest printing processes

Chitta Vritta is one of many Sanskrit terms used in yoga

Autumn Memories holiday Even the kids seemed alienMixed media (acrylic, paper, and ink) 20" x 20" on cradled birch panel Autumn Memories, a 1970s retro style geometric art painting in avocado green, harvest gold, and burnt orange. The colors remind me of my kitchen growing up in California. Doesn't it make you want to go out into the crisp fall air and jump into a big pile of leaves? Or play touch football in the front yard before the big Thanksgiving feast?
