This was just a little challenge to myself, an exercise in opposites: reds, pinks and greens.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like challenging myself to do glass and reflected objects as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This one was fun to do the green dots on the pink fabric as seen through the green glassware.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
~</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below are a few steps along the way</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My first challenge to myself was to get the drawing just right.</div>

The second challenge was to mix and apply just one color at a time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One color, then one stroke.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then, on to another area of the painting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One color, then one stroke.</div>

Once a few local colors were established, the next step was to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
start finding and applying "mixes" of the two complimentary colors:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
reds and greens. Then, I started a bit of blending.</div>

Above is my large studio easel, on which I have started a 24" x 36" canvas in oils.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We traveled to Rainbow Bridge on a river cruise several years ago and this canvas was actually begun soon after that trip. I think this poor canvas has been neglected for at least 3 years! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am so happy to be back to this painting. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below, you can see a few later stages of development</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the photo reference on the computer monitor, from which I paint. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ideally, I would prefer to be painting on location; </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but, I'm happy to use the computer monitor for now.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To the left of the easel, I also have a still life table.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If I am doing a large still life, I'll use this set up and the larger easel.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At this time, however, I'm working on two paintings:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I get bored just working on only one painting at a time, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so the little one will go more quickly and satisfy my impatience!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
~</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When the larger one is finished, you will see some people walking on a path.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And, with this comparison, you will be amazed at the immensity of this place</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and how tiny the people will look!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
~</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope to be finished with this at least by March 1st. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Stay tuned for updates!</div>

Dennis and I love going to a lake, where he can fish,</div>

and where I can stand by the lapping shorelines</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
go boating and skiing.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, before planning our trips, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we always look at the sky, to see if it will be a nice day.</div>

You would not have believed this "before" I totally </div>

changed it! It was dark and truly just plain ugly!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wiped it. poured alcohol on it, tilted it,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
wiped it again, tilted it again,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
added more alcohol.</div>

There is an area near Page, AZ,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
where the slot canyons can be entered.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are glorious!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They can be treacherous if one does not listen intently </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to and follow the leading of a trained Navajo guide.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Without warning, the rivers can quickly flood these canyons.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The rushing waters create and re-create these canyons<br />
every single time it rains hard!<br />
This is why, a native guide is a must!<br />
And, one that follows the weather reports,<br />
because these waters rush from many miles<br />
away, and then WOOSH!<br />
No, absolutely No Warning!<br />
Weather reports are paramount!<br />

<b><i>Emerald Isle</i></b> © Donna Pierce-Clark<br />
<br />
Do you ever dream of going to <b>Ireland</b>?<br />
<b><i>Emerald Isles</i></b><br />
is my impression a friend's visit a few years ago.<br />
Such fun it was to sit and go through her album,<br />
and watch her animated facial expressions,<br />
crowned with her glorious, long red tresses!<br />
She spoke of standing on the edge of the green and white cliffs,<br />
overlooking the sea, looking down and<br />
watching the waves pound the land.<br />
~<br />
Do you have a favorite place you have visited?<br />
Would you like to see your photos<br />
in a painting?<br />
Paintings include emotions,<br />
not just a mere depiction of an object or place.<br />
~<br />
<b><i><a href="http://www.pierceclarkfineart.com/contact-the-artist.html" target="_blank">Contact the Artist</a></i></b><br />

Twilight, that quiet time, the time between times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Did you know there are 3 types of twilight?</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: start;">
Three Types of Twilight</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: start;">We’re all familiar with the term twilight, that period of time just before sunrise or just after sunset. Did you know that there are actually three different twilight definitions?</span></div>
<ul style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: start;">
<li><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Civil Twilight:</span> the time at which the sun is 6 degrees below the horizon. At this time, there is enough light for objects to be clearly distinguishable and that outdoor activities can commence (dawn) or end (dusk) without artificial illumination. Civil twilight is the definition of twilight most widely used by the general public.</li>
<li><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Nautical Twilight:</span> the time when the center of the sun is 12 degrees below the horizon, and only general or vague outlines of objects are visible. During the evening this is when it becomes too difficult to perceive the horizon, and in the morning this is the point when the horizon becomes distinguishable. This term goes back to the days when sailing ships navigated by using the stars.</li>
<li><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Astronomical Twilight:</span> the time at which the sun is 18 degrees below the horizon. It is that point in time at which the sun starts lightening the sky. Prior to this time during the morning, the sky is completely dark. During the evening, this is the point where the sky completely turns dark. (http://www.crh.noaa.gov/lmk/?n=twilight-types)</li>

Hell Fire © Donna Pierce-Clark<br />
<br />
A little diversion from the wind and the water...........Fire.<br />
All shape the earth: the wind, the water, and the fire.<br />
All cleanse and re-shape whatever they touch.<br />
Forces of Nature, The Hand of God.<br />
With the Wind and with the Water,<br />
something is left behind.<br />
But, with Fire, nothing is left behind.<br />
At least nothing tangible.<br />
If the thing consumed is human,<br />
there is a spirit that must go somewhere.<br />
Eternity.<br />
What is left after the fire?<br />
Where will our spirit be, for Eternity?<br />
