Painting: Circles

This week's prompt for Creative Construction is "Circles." For some reason I find that painting circles is very relaxing. I am not sure exactly what it is, but inevitably if I get in a painting "trance" I end up with a bunch of circles at some point. I have a bunch of paintings with circles, so for today, here are a few of my favorites.

Painting: Vacation

I have been painting a bit--nothing special or fancy, but it really is relaxing for me and I really love the outlet. I joined a blog group--Creative Construction. Each week there is a prompt and people submit some form of creative product based on that prompt. Last week was my first submission, which was Beauty (and I submitted something of my Beauty). So...I decided that I might try to do these weekly prompts and see if I can get some juices flowing. So, again, this is really just an exercise in getting my creative urges out.

This week's prompt is "Vacation" and I painted a picture of what I would like for a vacation right now. A secluded house on the water, surrounded by tress. A quiet retreat, where good books will be read, writing will happen, naps will be taken, and telephones will not ring. That is the vacation I want right now.
