Hope everyone is safe in this crazy weather (Blizzard Nemo)... The picture below is called "three waterfalls." It's hazy, but quite nice. Waterfalls usually represent cleansing, freshness, and overflow. I think it's an important part of nature. The artist, Wanda S. Anderson doesn't say anything about the meaning behind her work, but the image does capture a certain beauty on the earth. A lot of times, when people look for vacation spots or getaway places, they look for places that are surrounded by large bodies of water or waterfalls like the picture. Sometimes, I kind of wonder why these kind of things bring a level of peace and calmness to the soul. I guess that's why people are often drawn to these places. Though Wanda Anderson doesn't say much, she does mention how the work was created: "All of these drawings are done free-handed on the computer--there is no copying or pasting in the drawings." It's a blurry image, but it's part of the effects in this particular artwork. Below is the image:
This probably started off as a straight photograph. The artist then imported it into a program like paint, and re-rendered it using a variety of natural media brushes located in the program.
ReplyDeleteI like this image. It's a very beautiful view.
