Small Abstract Painting, Daily Painting, Small Oil Painting, Summer Dance Painting

I came back from a walk in the Blue Ridge Mountains, inspired by the bright summer colors.  Flowers were evident around every turn.

I love abstract, but find them very difficult.  I have to have a starting point, some type of inspiration, some plan of composition.  Often I end of scraping off hours of work.

This is one of the few that appeals to me.  I felt good about it and still think it conveys the emotions I was feeling at the time.  I mark this one as a success for me.

Thanks for reading my blog today.

Treasure hunt 2009

Treasure hunt 2009 (click on image for details about the painting)






This is my recent work. A long deep painting.....

It felt like I was dealing with a long fiend when I painted this mystery abstract. I was tired at the end of many days of this painting project as it was quite a lot of 'action' and 'dynamics' to create this. But the following night when I visited the corner where he stood, I felt confided with this mystery-treasure hunt. If you like a serene fiend of a mystery, then this is for your walls. Has textures with several layers of patterns, abstract-shaped chips with contrasting colors. A dripping wet feeling add to the mystery of the treasure hunt.

Ocean sunrise - ARTIST DIVYA SEKAR ABSTRACT IMPRESSIONIST GERMANY

I have been researching a lot about using natural light for photography as my first sale wasnt successful, as I couldnt capture the exact colors of the painting by using artificial lights (floodlights in my case). Also, this is quite a drawback for photographing "METALLIC" and "TEXTURED" paintings, as they tend to be challenging to photograph due to the reflections...and another problem is the difference in colour due to different monitors

Thanks to a forum post in ETSY, I came to know of some "natural-like" lights...

I have been trying to fish out some in Germany, and there was an awesome article about the science behind these natural lights and where must one find it in Germany.....I am hoping to find really some of these bulbs or lamps when I go shopping tomorrow...Will keep you all posted and once I have this magic bulb I must redo my photography again..

BACK TO DAILY ABSTRACTS

Welcome AGAIN to my ocean series..This time I have attempted to create impressionist of sunrise at the ocean. Highly textured METALLIC painting. Reds, browns, copper, silver, black

Sea by night

The sea is ravishing at night. She tends to be oozing some beastly pleasantness. And the scene changes every second. I have portrayed these subtle changes in this quads (4 canvas) series. Also, the sand on sea shore has a visual glittery that could be combined effort of the moon and the radiating waters. Turquoise, black, ivory, copper.
