Art and Beauty Tuesday

This is Loading Dock, a water color by Mary Sheehan Winn.   I was first attracted to the colors in this painting--especially the blues and purples.  The beauty here belies the subject matter.  A simple loading dock is seen as something beautiful by the diffused lighting and the bright colors.

    For some reason, I think it is the loading dock at a zoo. Not sure why ... maybe all the greenery? Beautiful colors!

    Omg, your word verification is: ARTation. (Caps my emphasis!).

    I like the idea of a zoo!

    Your word verification the other day was something that sounded distinctly eastern. Very appropriate!

    Really lovely colors. Good art takes the commonplace and elevates it to beauty. It is a great gift to see beyond the ordinary. It is something I am trying to learn.

    I think that is one of the cornerstones of spirituality, Barbara.
