I'm linking to the always colorful and inspiring Paint Party Friday! Head on over to see more beautiful art.
In the meantime, I wish you happiness, peace and joy in 2017! I'm glad we get to be part of each other's journeys! Thank you for visiting today!!
You are painting with such confidence ... you have grown immeasurably since I last came to see you. All of your paintings are lovely and, of course, I especially love the owl. I am intrigued by how you can paint those strait whiskers ... mine always have a kink or two in them :) Happy New Year, Silke ...
OOOhhhhh I love this video. You did a fantastic job. It was clear, great lighting, even though you had no lights, The paintings showed up perfectly. I can't wait to see more. I would love to see how you go from background to subject. You know how much I love your art. Your are such an inspiration. Thank you.
Those colours of yours are amazing. My favorites are the first one, and the big painting New horizons. So beautiful .... It's lovely to hear your explanation in the video, on how you did each of the paintings. Thanks for sharing!
Wow! I love the feeling of freedom that your gorgeous paintings express. Your use of colors is so vibrant and lively too. I've been wanting to do a video, but keep coming up with excuses, so you've inspired me to just do it. Happy New Year!
Silke, your acrylic paintings are so bright, vivid, and beautiful. Since I do mostly watercolor painting, I was intrigued by your technique, using only 3 colors. I often do that too but I haven't been able to get the intensity that you get. Really beautiful works.
I've watched plenty of videos and can tell you yours is fabulous especially for a first go (or second go, as the case may be;-) You speak clearly and straightforward, your lighting shows everything to advantage, and of course your paintings are so beautiful! I love learning a bit about your process and what paints you are using. The portraits are very good. Do you work from a photo or just go with a flow and what ever face comes out of your imagination? I hope you will continue with more videos. I love your style of painting and am proud to display your work on my wall. Thanks for sharing!
Wunderschöne neue Arbeiten Silke und das Video ist perfekt geworden. Schön mal deine Stimme zu hören und dich bewegt zu sehen. Dein Englisch klingt echt amerikanisch, aber die Aussprache ist so akzentuiert und ohne Slang und Worte zu verschlucken, daß man auch als Nichtamerikaner jedes Wort sauber versteht. Bin gespannt was du aus deinem Bild im Hintergrund hervorzauberst. Frohes, gesundes und kreatives Neues Jahr dir und deinen Lieben. Liebe Grüße Sabine
Love seeing you on video... you did a great job...give yourself a bow! I look forward to more! Interesting how much more detail shows up in a photo than on the video.

Your art is wonderful, as always. Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie
