photos of the weekend #48 / creative madness
I love music, art, theater, dance…
This autumn has been inspiring. I’ve learned a lot about painting, colors and different mediums.
I like acrylic paints, watercolors, Chinese ink and galligraphy brushes are also interesting.
Or acrylic crayons. Add a drop of water and the picture is totally different!
wow, I’m having fun!

Sun’s not very high…
here it’s 12:26 pm and the sun is looking very, very lazy, not going higher…
Is this a big shadow or what? 🙂
Can’t wait for brighter and longer days…
ps.
Want to amuse yourself?
Check out Tina’s post of pinterest, it’s hilarious!
Have a creative weekend!

I love trying new things, and it looks like you do, too. I have dabbled with painting, but turned to the camera and to designing my lap quilts. Love all of your experimentation with the acrylics and Chinese ink (I had not heard of it before). The colors are vivid in some shots and then muted and mingling in other. The shadow shots are awesome. This is a fascinating post full of things to make one think creatively. genie
My favorite is the yellow: glue, tissue, and acrylic art.
I’ve made some projects with my 3 year old. We made a house out of a cardboard box.
Uh, sitä on vallan unohtanut kuinka pimeää siellä oikeasti on. Mutta loistavasti korjattu puute väreillä, maalaaminen saa unohtamaan kaiken muun. Tykkään töistä, joissa kiinanmustetta on taitavasti sekoitettu vesiväreihin, aasialaiset hallitsevat sen homman uskomattoman hienosti.
Love the drama of your scenic short days – but, oh, I am not sure
I could live that way!
beautiful images! 🙂
The artwork has such wonderful texture and colors. Simply beautiful.
very interesting:) great work!
Love that last shot. I could get lost in my lazy admiration 🙂
Oh my goodness…why, even the paint photos show shadowing. Incredibly fine post today. I really enjoyed this…very much so.
Here is my link to my shadow shots If a tree falls in the swamp, do you HEAR it?
Hope you’re having a great weekend.
Indeed was a inspiring autumn and you manage to show that 🙂 Again wonderful choice! Have a nice Sunday!
What a knack for creating effects, and so delightful! And I loved Tina’s post too. 🙂 Thank you for sharing.
Lovely…as usual. 🙂
And thanks dearie…you are too kind.
best,
Tina
My day has been quite productive, but certainly not as creative as yours! 🙂
Your funny… wish the sun shines crispier that ever now that we have rain/snow/wind & storm…
OMG, darkness is killing me & my cold allergy.
Hope your enjoying your work and the beautiful city of Helsinki.
Hugs,

I will never complain about the lack of light down here this winter, Neatly captured, it now looks cold there!
All of yoyr edits are great, the textures and colors bold and stylish. I need to create something…
Wonderful, mystical lighting in your mornings! Those last 3 photos are stunning! And enjoyed your creative journey with paints and processes!
Creative madness suits you!
Love the long shadows in your last photo and city shots! The other shots are pretty cool too…Especially the acrylic paint. Happy SSS.
I remember being in Northern Ireland in December several years ago. It was still dark–pitch dark!–at 9 a.m.! Your photos tell me that the darkness in Finland in December is even more profound than Northern Ireland’s!
EVERYWHERE SHADOWS
Shadows above and shadows below,
Shadows that blaze and shadows that glow;
Shadows outside and shadows indoors,
Shadows on trees and shadows on floors;
Everywhere shadows calling my name,
Everywhere shadows no one can tame.

LOVE all your creativity!! how exciting!! keep up the creative juices…look forward to seeing your work. come on sun!!! have a lovely weekend!!!!!
A very nice sequence of shots…
Väreillä on kiva leikkiä;oletkin ollut ahkera!
Ja jännällä tavalla ihanat nuo maisemakuvat:)
Ahkera kylla! Kuin tuli hannan alla…melkein maaninen olen ollut innostuksesta.
Haalin tarjouksista papereita, kankaita jne. Suomessa taidetarvikkeet on kalliita. Vaikkei kylla halpoja taida enaa olla missaan, ehka Kiinassa…
Ihania värejä, valuvia, kauniita. Maalaaminen on terapiaa.
On terapiaa, meditoivaa, rauhoittavaa…paitsi kun intoutuu niin, etta adrenaliini voittaa! Nyt yritan oppia piirtamaan/maalaamaan silman……
