MsKitty’s Cool in Blue Spiral Gyre Land

Thank you Katharine Cartwright for mentioning my drawing in your blog today; I'm honored!  Kathy has a wonderfully written posting on resolutions today.  I recommending reading it!

 

I like exploring the spiral idea with MsKitty.  This little design begs to be done again, with modifications, variations, a little of this, a little of that…  It's a challenge making the spirals go different direction.  I can feel the natural sort of handedness about spirals.

This design is regular, symmetric, relying heavily on alternation to give it visual interest.  It’s fun  exploring these designs!  More soon.

  • Thanks so much, Peggy, for mentioning my blog! You're too generous. Another great design, here, and MsKitty seems delighted with spiral land. Your designs are so instructive. I wish art majors across the country would take a look at what you've accomplished. This is a great lesson!

  • i like this blue, very deep

  • Peggy- I completely agree with Kathy's comment about how instructive your designs are. You absolutely could write a book on composition and/or teach. You illustrate composition so succinctly and beautifully. You make it look effortless. Beautiful!
     

  • Hi Kathy, Lilas and Pam!

    Kathy, Speaking of generous, thank you for your compliment! Isn't if fun and enlightening what one can do with a simple little design?

    Lilas, thank you!  The blues I used included French Ultramarine blue, cerulean blue, indanthrone blue, and a little purple too!

    Pam, oh my!  I think of these things as simple little "what if" designs.  Really…hmmm, I might need to start writing things down!  Thank you!
