Saturday Is For Art





A dried out sunflower, two houses in the Oregon District in Dayton, Ohio and My Icons.

November has arrived. There is still lots of color on the ground, but winter is approaching. The photo is one of the sunflowers from my yard. The pencil drawings of the two houses in the Oregon District are from 1995. And, the pencil drawing My Icons is from my head, started in 2004 and completed in 2007.

Dear Fred,

It has been interesting watching the life of your sunflowers over the last months. I look forward to seeing the new ones next spring.

I really like 'My Icons'. The symbols are personal and universal. The composition works well too. It reminds me of a High Renaissance layout with symbols rather than gesturing figures.
Cheers,
Kathryn

Thanks for your kind remarks. Yes, I have collected enough sunflower seeds to fill a few jars and so I will have sunflowers next year.
