Lately I've been feeling the urge to paint the night sky and its sparkly stars. Not sure why I stopped but a few years ago I painted night scenes a bit more. The other day I popped open my brand new Dylusions art journal and the first scene became a night sky with a warm, full moon. Then I felt like I had to add the words from the new Coldplay song, "You're a sky full of stars." I wanted to look up all the lyrics but got sidetracked (of course) as usual. A day or so went by and I went to listen to my new favorite acoustic/cover band Boyce Avenue while I was painting and the first video from them popped up and it was Coldplay's song. I actually decided that was a sign and those words needed to be on this painting.
Does the sky mesmerize you like it does me? Do you have any favorite, dreamy quotes about the sky, stars or moon?
What a nice post Jill! I like to see the progression in your work and how one piece inspires the next. I love them all, but especially the one you created for me. I look forward to seeing you when we get together for the transfer. I will cherrish it forever! Thank you Jill for helping me on my journey to my dream life, one filled with art, friends and especially love!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! I'm so glad you are happy with the piece I painted for you - I hope it makes you smile each time you pass it as it hangs on your wall. Looking forward to giving it to you in person as well. You have been definitely helping me on my journey too - thank you for that.
