birds singing. Can you feel the breeze?
The practice of meditative art is an amazing way to wake up creativity. I learned through this practice to fearlessly start a piece with no forethought as to where I was going, and thus to let my imagination flow freely I have found that in this way I can come up with creations I would never have done otherwise. The key design in the Morning Reverie Collection is such a piece. AFTER creating it, I began to see birds. The coffee cups I added later, because I began to think of being on the porch in the morning, drinking coffee and listening to the birds. (These details are not really apparent unless you are looking for them, especially at the smaller scale.) The original drawing became a painting which then morphed into this surface design. You may view the painting, titled "Morning Has Broken," here, where prints, note cards, etc. are available: https://fineartamerica.com/featured/morning-has-broken-mary-wykes.html ) This painting won an Honorable Mention in a juried international art show held by the Society of Watercolor Artists in 2014. I see this design as highly useful for home deco projects such as wallpaper, pillows and duvet covers. If you want it in another size, just ask. Copyright Mary K Wykes 4-1-16
