These are a the last two postcard sized pieces
I'll be donating for
I enjoyed working on them all
and am happy with the results!
(detail)
I'm not sure which way I want this one to be shown...
I liked the first layout, until I saw it up here on the screen,
because then it looked too much like a vase
with a big flower in it to me!
hmmmm...

I like the horizontal layout. It's a beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteHi Karin,
ReplyDeleteI just love these postcard pieces you're making! They are so beautiful!
Horizontal looks great- the other way does look like a vase- I thought that was what was intended..both ways are TOO COOL!
ReplyDeleteThis art is fantastic! It looks more like a flaming sun to me. It’s beautiful my favorite is the last picture. It looks frightening but beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better. great work! I vote for horizontal too! I didnt think it was a vase, I just though it was a vast sea of possibilities that the sun was rising from....
ReplyDeleteI love both pieces and the third eye is fabulous too!

Either way, it is the colors that get me - both in the moon sun and in the blue face with three eyes. And that calligraphy - it just adds a depth to the pieces that is so very cool - like messages from within or from the Universe.
ReplyDeleteLove 'em, beautiful Karin !
I think I prefer the horizontal ,and it's stunning. I spy some Arabic lettering in there :-)
ReplyDeleteHope you're keeping well.
I agree with you all, horizontal works better :) thanks for your input!
ReplyDeleteYes my Gupgsy friend, you do see some arabic writing in the back ground, beneath the surface of my asemic writing! In both these postcards and a couple from the previous postcard post below. Pages of text were taken from a book I got at a library sale, and I did some gel medium transfers with them, so the text is reversed. Wish I could read it - I know one of the books is a prayer book, not sure about this one though...
Karin oh my God. They are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI did think that the first one was a vase and flower and it was stunning, but when you turned it to the side it was the moon and the sun for me and I loved it maybe a little bit more.
Either way they are incredible.
And the third eye, the one that I see you with.
I love you.
Loe Renee xoxo
