my blue period

I'm working with a series of blue paintings lately and thought I'd share a pic of one of my works.

Thanks for looking. :)

Oh, I LOVE that. Reminds me of a beautiful ocean wave. Thanks for sharing!

Sundial, I love your paintings. If I could see them in the flesh, so to speak, I'd buy one in a flash. They're really color-luscious.

Thanks!! I needed that:)

just don't go cutting off any ears ;)

That reminds me of oil on the pavement after a rain or an anemone shell.

Fabulous! Thanks for sharing!

From your post topic, I am gllad you are talking painting and not Aunt Flo or a depressed period. The painting is nice!

Flybye, LOL! I can just see you put on your social worker hat and start the counseling session. :)

Salsabike, thank you! You are so kind.
Smilie, I guess I've been subconsciously desiring the ocean when I created this.
Thank you everyone for your support. And Zen, if I cut off anything it will be my hair. ;)

Ha! I sorta thought the same thing -- "What kind of blood disorder gives you a BLUE period??" I was pleasantly surprised to see your wonderful blue painting. I agree with others -- I'd love to see more. I'm a lover of all things art.

Thanks for sharing your blue period with us. Heh! :p

Actually, I look at Sundial's website periodically and mutter to myself over the paintings and about emailing her to inquire further. And I see you've changed the site lately!

Salsa, I post new pics almost quarterly. I don't post everything because I try to limit the number of images on my website since I can't protect them from dishonest folks. I may have to look into a software that protects the images from being copied, saved, or printed.

I, too, thought we were going to have to tell her to get to an OB/GYN ASAP! :p

I really like the paintings. I like blue.

All of them are fantastic. I particularly love the movement and depth of the colors.

I actually put off looking at this thread because I was having a grumpy day and was pretty sure that I couldn't contribute anything positive to say about someone else's "blue period". Now I'm so glad I opened it. I love those paintings!!:cool::cool:

Hey, on this board, the topic could be about anything. :cool:

Er...yea, saw this one in London last October. http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/cg...?workNumber=L9 I wanted to stand in front of it and stare lots longer, but my family was already heading to the next room. The Van Goghs were stunning, speaking of missing ears...could have spent weeks in there.

Picasso rocks. But then, so does sundial. ;)

I too was wondering whether this was a gynecological, psychological or artistic thread. I'm glad curiosity finally overcame reticence. Lovely paitings, Sundial! :)

Sundial,

Would you post a link to your other paintings? I'd love to look at more of them.

One of my favorite prints is Albrecht Durer's Meloncolia. Durer always had a sense of humor, even during his period of feeling the blues. The expression on the angel is priceless. I can attest many a times I've sat in my studio bumfuzzled and frustrated over a painting that fizzled out.

luvnAustin, here's my website: www.cathyburge.com

Wow! Those are beautiful! Forgive my newbie ignorance, but do you have your work exhibited anywhere?

Never mind. I just found the link you posted

Hey! you transitioned to blue ever so graciously!
good work. I hope you sell lots of stuff.


and I love Durer, he's been one of my heros for half a century!

I once did a painting I ended up calling "Flamingos In Distress" :D

those are rad.

Wow, those are absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for putting of the link to your page I'm loving looking through everything.

Ha! I was thinking the exact same thing!! Those are just beautiful, Sundial!!

Thank you everyone. :) I enjoy working in blues--it's a nice departure from the warm tones. My favorite blue color is Prussian blue. It's very moody, deep and mysterious.

Wow....these are amazing! You are extremely talented :)

Wow! Love all of your paintings! They are all so vivid. Thanks for sharing!
