Do-Something-Everyday, May 26, 2016
I am beginning to realize that with warm weather approaching, the art I am doing now seem all inspired by nature. This morning I was wondering what do I paint today? Then I saw this glorious fern on my front yard and realized that nature is best model for an artist, one that never stops giving. As I started painting this single frond of leaves, I could not but admire the perfect symmetry of the leaves. Something I had not noticed before. One can capture on paper only a pale imitation of it, don't you think?
Thanks for visiting. Linked to Paint Party Friday. Thanks to Kristin and Eva for hosting.
Beautiful work, Nature is a great master and can teach us a lot. Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie

Lovely fern and your photos... the symmetry is so amazing, isn't it? Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteFerns are beautiful plants and you've done a lovely job recreating their delicate nature. Unfortunately here in Scotland they tend to be where ticks hide out waiting for dogs (or people) to pass by and jump on board so I see them now in a more sinister light!
ReplyDeleteLove your ferns. You really did a great job painting the fronds. :) Erika
ReplyDeletei love ferns..would look great on a tote bag
ReplyDeleteI agree. However, how wonderful that we can walk out our doors and find nature to use as models. Have a fantastic weekend.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I love painting leaves and florals too and I think your fern looks great :)
ReplyDeletebeautiful painting and photos. Yes, nature is very inspiring indeed. Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteYour fern is lovely. I love the wonderful symmetry of all different sorts of ferns. Quite amazing I think. Happy PPF
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree - ferns are so perfect in their intricate beauty! An art teacher pointed out to me how often nature's design follows the fibonacci sequence, which results in the symmetry and or spirals we so often encounter. Quite fascinating! Your fern painting is beautiful. So fresh!
ReplyDeleteYou painted the frond beautifully. Nature really is a wonderful inspiration. Happy PPF on a Saturday :)
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! When my kids were small, we would paint the leaves, then press them onto cloth--like sweatshirts and t-shirts. SO much fun. Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteFern's are so pretty and you captured this one very nicely! When I don't know what to paint...I go outside. It's all out there for us to see and paint. Happy PPF, better late than never.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is beautiful, nature's mathematical perfection!
