Description

This simple form struck me as very graceful. I thought it would be best to not embellish it until perhaps I understood its beauty more deeply.

So lovely. I really like the sand texture and spiral imprint. Perfect palette.

Thank you very much Elizabeth, bakapo, Bunny, and Linda. Your kind words are very encouraging, it's nice to know that such simple beauty is appreciated. Several times a week I walk along a boardwalk into town and often admire the beauty that the waves leave in the mud and sand. Although this spiral doesn't mimic those patterns in form, I felt it expressed some of the same grace. Positioning it in the picture frame was somewhat challenging. The curve of the spiral is dynamic and the frame static. The form's angle, closeness to the edges, the negative spaces, etc. all had a significant impact upon the relationship. When I happened upon this version, the others looked awkward by comparison. Not that it couldn't be improved, hopefully my artistic sense will grow so I can see how. Thanks again, db
