Hi Everybody!
For art journal journey, light and darkness, I have another hybrid/mixed media piece. The background was stenciled using diluted black paint over kraft paper.
The centre is a cut out photo of mine taken last year, and showing the church with the wonky spire and the tower in the Altstadt here. I changed the dreary background of the photo and used a photo made of the underside of a rusty tin. I added some grungy corners digitally (Serif). And if you want to know if the whole thing is meant not to be straight - well, I'm not telling....
The sunrise lured me out onto the cold balcony again this morning:
And here are a few more paintings from the Kunstpalast, all from
the early 20th century:
Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, 1919
Emil Nolde, 1908
Wassily Kandinsky, 1909
August Macke, 1912
(A copy of this painting always hung in my classroom when I was teaching)
Franz Marc, 1913
Paul Klee, 1919
Lionel Feininger, 1916
I will show more next time!
Have a good day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Oh how beautiful your art is! The colors and the forms speak to me, I love the choices you made. Gorgeous photographs too!
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful post - your own art with the Altstadt is wonderful, as are the sunrise photos and the pics of the treasures from the museum. I love it all. Hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful quality of golden light emanating from your page :-). The grunge vintage feel is lovely, it looks like an oil painting. Loving the paintings too, especially the abstract foxes - gorgeous! Have a lovely weekend! J :-)

ReplyDeleteein schönes we.

Gorgeous piece for AJJ! Beautiful sunrise and the paintings are lovely too.
ReplyDeleteI agree, you've created a gorgeous journal page, I have no idea how you put the hybrids together. The sunrise is very beautiful and so are the paintings, I have a couple of favorites (the August Macke & Franz Marc) well also the Emil Nolde.... they are all fantastic :) Take care, Shirleyxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful journal page today and as always you are so inspiring. Loving the gorgeous photos as always. xx{aNNie}
ReplyDeleteYour AJJ entry today is remarkable, partly because you chose to grunge up the background. It gave the image something quite unique and special. It really spoke to me, and this may be my favorite AJJ piece so far.
ReplyDeleteYour photos of the various art works at the K20 Museum are fantastic. I especially liked the Franz Marc, the Kandinsky, and the Lionel Feininger (who I had never heard of before). Surprisingly, I was not impressed with the Klee, although I normally like his art. Thanks for sharing these and exposing me to some really gorgeous new art.
Terrific page--underside of a rusty tin--your ideas get better and better.
ReplyDeleteWonderful sunrise and I am sure it would lure me out of bed earlier to see that sort of scene. Still darkish here with a hint of grey creeping in.
What amazing paintings yet again.I have seen quite a few of them on postcards or in books but to stand in front of them in real life must be a wonderful experience
Have a great day
Love Chrissie xx
Wonderful page and great photos! Happy Sunday!
ReplyDeleteWunderschöne digitale Kunst - toll wie du die verschiedenen Fotos vereint hast!
ReplyDeleteDiese Sonnenaufgänge sind wirklich phänomenal!
Sehr interessante Museumsbesuche, danke dass du uns mitnimmst :)
Ich habe mir auch deine vorherigen Posts angesehen, sie gefallen mir alle sehr!
Liebe Grüße, Rike
Love the grungy-vintage look to today's fabulous page, lovely to see one of your own photos for the central scene.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, its dull and grey here, normal I think for us in December.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your artwork Valerie - the glowing light on the scene is really beautiful. So many great ideas!

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing all the art work today - my favorite one is the August Macke one. But I also love that red fox too!

Your Hybrid piece is beautiful ♥ Love seeing the art from the museum too. Yesterday we went to a mall shopping and there was a art studio with 2 of our local artist working there. One I absolutely love and it was a joy to watch her paint and chat with her a few minutes. It was better than a trip to the art museum ♥
ReplyDeleteYes, there's nothing better than a personal meeting and chat!
DeleteWhat a fabulous background for you churches to sit one. Love the whole look of this page.
ReplyDeleteYour 4th photo of the sun rise would also make a gorgeous background.....just saying...LOL!
Glad you like my sun rise page, thank you for the lovely comment.
I will add it to my backgrounds folder, thanks for the hint!
DeleteYour photo-painting is just spectacular and the background of rusty tin - megawow!
ReplyDeleteThe skyscapes are just wonderful, you are a very fine sky photographer.
Thanks! The sky is so fascinating, I would just like some heating on my balcony in the cold winter months!
DeleteFirst of all, how cool to see the actual painting that you had the copy of. You must have been excited to see it. Loving this style art. I like on your beautiful art how you have the photo on metal. :) Great new header too. Happy new week. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThose skies are magnificent and I really loved the pieces you showed from your museum visit. Lots of color! And the light in your piece today -- spot on! very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFabelhaftes Bild, liebe Valerie! Mir gefällt, wie du diese sehr verschiedenen Techniken anwendest und ein so tolles Werk schaffst. Ganz wunderbar sind auch deine Himmelsimpressionen. Schön, dass du uns einen Einblick deienes Museum-Besuches zeigst! Ein wunderbarer und inspirierender Post!
ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüße, Annette
Wunderschönes Foto genial bearbeitet, mir gefällt das Blau zu den Rosttönen sehr gut. Deine Morgenhimmel-Fotos sind wieder total klasse, aber auch die Museumsbilder sind sehr gelungen,toller Querschnitt durch die Kunstszene der 20 er Jahre.
