Acrlyic painting with mixed media, and collaged formed painting. It has some fine fabric materials used such as satin, and pure silk material, that have been cut up in many little shapes and added. I can never just paint the sun, sky and the sea, to how it is, as in my mind i see alsorts of things and shapes and colours to what reality is sometimes, just like this piece.
“Shimmer” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © Sunrise at tropical Mission Beach in far north Queensland, Australia. The Australian Sunrise / “The Morning Star paled slowly, the Cross hung / low to the sea, / And down the shadowy reaches the tide came / swirling free, / The lustrous purple blackness of the soft / Australian night, / Waned in the grey awakening that heralded / the light; / Still in the dying darkness, still in the forest dim, / The pearly dew of the dawning clung to each / giant limb, / Till the sun came up from ocean, red with the / cold sea mist, / And smote on the limestone ridges, and the / shining tree-tops kissed; / Then the fiery Scorpion vanished, the magpie’s / note was heard, And the wind in the sheoak / wavered and the honeysuckles stirred; / The airy golden vapour rose from the river breast, / The kingfisher came darting out of his / crannied nest, / And the bullrushes and reed-beds put off their / sallow grey / And burnt with cloudy crimson at the dawning / of the day.” / ~James Lister Cuthbertson
I just loved how the blue paint of this boat matched the hues of the sea at the time this shot was captured.
Enjoy my friends! _

After my ill-fated original Water Horse artwork was destroyed/lost by the postal service while sending it to its new home, I decided to make another Water Horse of sorts. This one is done in a bit of an Asian style, and is a mixed media creation (oil pastels, colored pencils, art markers, gold paint pen, and liquid copper leaf) on light green Canson pastel paper. The artwork measures 12.5×19 inches. A small study of the basic horse figure was also created and is named Painted Pony According to legends, a Water Horse is a supernatural creature that lures humans to death by drowning. —-—-—— / From Wikipedia The kelpie is a supernatural water horse from Celtic folklore that is believed to haunt the rivers and lochs of Scotland and Ireland. Its hide was supposed to be black (though in some stories it was white), and will appear to be a lost pony, but can be identified by its constantly dripping mane. Its skin is like that of a seal, smooth, but is as cold as death when touched. The horse’s appearance is strong, powerful, and breathtaking. Water horses are also known to transform into handsome men in order to lure women into their traps. It is understood that the nostril of the horse is what creates the illusion of grandeur. The water horse also creates illusions to keep itself hidden, keeping only its eye above water to scout the surface, much like the illusion of a fish’s pupil. It is wise to keep away from them. If a human climbs on the back of a water horse, the horse will often dive into the water and drown its rider. If a human gains control over the horse it can be put to work in fields. Water Horses have the strength of ten land horses and do not like to be enslaved and will try every trick to escape. The water horse then courts its master for several years before it consumes only the left leg and right hand pinky finger of the victim. The water horse is also a common form of the kelpie, said to lure mortals, especially children, into the water to drown and eat them. It performs this act by encouraging children to ride on its back. Once its victims fall into its trap, the kelpie’s skin becomes adhesive and it bears them into the river, dragging them to the bottom of the water and devouring them – except the heart or liver. A common Scottish tale is the story of nine children lured onto a kelpie’s back, while a tenth keeps his distance. The kelpie chases him and tries to catch him, but he escapes. A variation on this is that the tenth child simply strokes the kelpie’s nose, but when his finger becomes stuck to it he takes a knife from his pocket and cuts his own finger off. He saves himself, but is unable to help his friends as they are pulled underwater with the kelpie. Commonly known as spirits of the dead, kelpies are not benevolent creatures. An exception is a Scottish tale in which, towards the end of the mystical period of Scotland, a water horse fails to travel to Tír na nÓg with its fellow mystic folk, and instead rises above water, seeking a wife. However, after attempting to court a clever girl, who consults the wiseman about the situation, he is captured and forced to work in order to be taught compassion. After learning his lesson, he is given the choice of departing to Tír na nÓg, or drinking a magic potion that will make him a real man. The water horse, now full of love decides to drink the potion which erases the memories of his life as a water horse and gives him the chance to live with the clever girl with whom he has fallen in love. —-—-—— View more of my artwork online at http://www.lynnetteshelley.com Also check out Water Horse III

Large canvas painting of a beach sunset in acrylic. Painted for a friend’s birthday. I have already painted a similar painting in watercolour. I am pleased with this version. I love sunsets and sunrises with the warm colours, as does my dear friend and here’s hoping she will like this special gift when she opens it on her birthday on Boxing Day!
