The Secret Chord by Alison Pearce
Montemarte watercolours on canvas. Semi – abstract piece based on my favourite song Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen. Many of you have probably noticed that I have not been sharing much work lately. Frankly, not much is getting done. Difficult family circumstances have left me physically and mentally drained. Saturday night, the stress got the better of me, and I just knew I had to release it. / This is the result. / The figure is based loosely upon myself, the guitar a symbol of my husband who always makes things alright somehow. The abstract use of colour was part of my overall intention of releasing my pent up emotions. / Mission accomplished :) Hallelujah lyrics / Songwriters: Cohen, Leonard; Now, I’ve heard there was a secret chord / That David played and it pleased the Lord / But you don’t really care for music, do you? / It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift / The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah / Hallelujah, Hallelujah Your faith was strong but you needed proof / You saw her bathing on the roof / Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you / She tied you to a kitchen chair / She broke your throne and she cut your hair / And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah / Hallelujah, Hallelujah You say I took the name in vain / I don’t even know the name / But if I did, well really, what’s it to you? / There’s a blaze of light in every word / It doesn’t matter which are heard / The holy or the broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah / Hallelujah, Hallelujah I did my best, it wasn’t much / I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch / I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you / And even though it all went wrong / I’ll stand before the Lord of Song / With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah / Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Dreaming by Belinda "BillyLee" NYE
Print made from woodcut print. Tried painting the woodcut like Cressinda Campbell and than printing it by spraying water. This did not work. so than I hand painted the whole print with watercolor paints. Layering day after day. Then outlining with black ink. The result is stunning. I think so anyway! 802 Views as of 21.12.09 This print has been updated on 21/12/09 with a lighter version. Think its better now. CLOSE UP OF WOODCUT PRINT THE ACTUAL WOOD PLATE

old man by PeterCannonArt
This peice was inspired by Hidemi Tada’s work which caused me to go back and look at some Master works from bygone days. The composition is my own but it came out of that. The original is a 14” by 20” watercolor done on Arches 140# cold press paper. Hidemi Tada is a fellow redbubble artist and if you haven’t checked out his work you should.

Hat Series #3 Cool Hats by Joyce Ann Burton-Sousa
I had such fun with these three paintings—Hot Hats, Hats and Cool Hats. I hate to draw and love to paint. I didn’t go near a pencil when I did this series. The medium is watercolor, I use Arches cold pressed 100% cotton paper, and the dimensions of the original painting are 12 1/8 inches x 16 inches.

Winter...January Sun by Janis Zroback
“One must have a mind of winter / To regard the frost and boughs / Of the pine-trees crusted with snow; / And have been cold a long time / To behold the junipers shagged with ice, / The spruces rough in the distant glitter / Of the January sun; and not to think / Of any misery in the sound of the wind, / In the sound of a few leaves.” excerpt…Wallace Stevens Watercolour on Arches Not Paper / Baby It’s Cold Outside / The First Day / C’est L’hiver / Winter Landscape…The Bothy / Winter…After The Storm
