Priming for a beach
visit next month, re-posted another favorite of mine, “Favorable Winds -
Myrtle Beach" watercolor, 4” x 5". From my Haiku/Haiga, mini seascape
painting series. As mentioned before, a distillation of form and shape,
eliminating unnecessary detail. Less is more. Enabling the viewer to
contemplate, and add accordingly - "and complete them in the mind's
eye."
This idea was triggered by reading haiku poetry and then
sketching images of the words. Then I thought, I’ll apply part of the
haiku poem formula to my beach sketches, starting with three lines, and
then editing visually.
Now back to finishing this other commission before I can go!
