Fascinating series! It is going to be very cold here next week

Pretty impressive stuff my friend look forward to seeing more well done!!

You look to be having a ball with these images it is amazing what you can do isn't it. Excellent work. We have been having some sizzling summer weather but then a cyclone came through so back down to 20C now. 😀

Very interesting, Helle. You sure experiment a lot with art media I never heard of before. With that texture in this posting it sort of suggests a series of wood blocks. I don't see a fiddle in any of them, but maybe it's hidden somewhere. Incidentally, it's been very warm, virtually hot, here over the past months. No rain at all. No jackets needed. Summer in the Winter.

I like what you've done here - very impressive and beautiful

I looked for a violin, also known as a fiddle, but then I realized you meant a digi-fiddle! LOL! The details in full view are great. I like how her feet disappear with the fiddling. The print of her dress is terrific, and it really holds up across the board. Fun stuff!

Outstanding work Helle. God bless.

I'm not quite sure how you did negative painting, but that's my ignorance, not your problem...I sense that you painted this 'over' the gelli print---thus the print in the background, 'whispering' through that sky. It's very effective. I love that you made a woman out of these patterns, using them as patterns for her dress. And I love how the pattern seeps through---behind her---like whispers of another work of art. (Like you painted this over another whole painting. Well, you did, if you consider the print a separate artwork.) And you even have this 'crown' around her head, like the halos they gave madonnas in the middle ages. I also love how spontaneously you painted the trees and water---just little yellow squiggles for water, and green rushing strokes; and the trees are rushed on, with so much charm. And the woman---who looks like a woodcut figure from a much older time---is wading in that water (wet feet). As I wrote to you privately, this feels like an illustration for a children's folk tale, made in the 1600s to 1800s. It feels very old and fairy tale-ish, and I love how you did it.

The 1st variation looks like a needlepoint fr. 2 centuries ago. (Something you'd find in a great grandmother's attic.) And the 2d variation---holy cow! You went all out on that! I love the "din" of it, the way the colors/shapes take over: They shout and argue; and the woman's dress becomes so intense. Her face reminds me of Matisse---because of its rich blue (the way he used such rich hues in faces). Really intense....I think it can be said, Helle, that there's no style you can't tackle; it amazes me that you tackle things many of us haven't even thought of; and you are proof that physical art is very much alive, because there isn't an object you can't make art out of. And when you do apply digital filters, you still make them look physical. That's a big deal, Helle: You still make them look physical. Do you know how hard that is? I've been doing digital art a long time, and it never looks physical: never. Whatever's calling you, keep listening: These experiments of yours are magical, and they cover centuries of art...

Lovely art, and a fascinating bit of experimentation, Helle! These are wonderful!
