This is fantastic Marguerite! Perfectly composed and such gorgeous colours and textures and patterns. Love it :)
Marguerite Foxon replied

Hi Shelly – have missed seeing you around – thanks for the comment. Actually, the orange should have a little more red in it .. seems a little browner here than on my screen or when printed. I like it a lot though so thanks for your comment and fav too!

Those circles do it for me! So neat how the heat produces such varied designs in the paint. Your composition here is wonderful!

This is great!! this reminds me of those sand sculpters we use to do as kids..where we took different colored sand in a jar..layered them then took a sharp object to make designs..love this..beautiful work.

Oooh, thats a great image Kim. I had not thought of that but it does remind me of that now you mention it. Thank you so much for your comment!

I guess I should go look at burnt cars more closely. What a find! Isn’t it amazing that such beauty can lie in such an obscure place. Wonderful and inspiring. Thanks!
Marguerite Foxon replied

Yes Mike, it does amaze me what can be found in the grungy areas of our world, and a macro opens it right up. Thx for your visit.
