A Bit of Hydrangea

Here is a painting I was having fun with last night.  Its a bit of Hydrangea.  It looks similar to my other flower paintings with one real difference.  The petals on the top of this painting are painted in positive.  Then, I began to work my way down the paper and the petals on the bottom are completely in negative.

It's an interesting way to paint, and I think I'll keep trying this.

Also I was kinda painting this from memory, knowing that hydrangea are just 4 diamond shaped petals.  I didn't really know what the center of the flower looked like, so I dropped a little yellow in the middle.  Now I know that there is a little button in the middle of the 4 petals.  Hmmmm, well, I guess I have something to work on tonight.

Please feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think, and thanks for taking the time to look.

Unique Circuit Board Clock

Here is another clock I have done.  This one is made of old hard drive parts.  It would be easy just to place the clock hands on the round platter and call it good, but I used pieces from 8 different hard drives to build this.  They are all screwed together and the platter affixed to the center.  The clock has a lot of interest when you look at it closely.    I am really proud of this one, I hope you all like it.

As with my other clocks, this one may be purchased at my Etsy store.  Follow this link to find it.

A Return to a Lost Time

This clock currently for sale.

 Well, I think we have been here before, or at least somewhere close.  This is a variation on the other clock that I made.  This one, obviously, has a round frame around a rectangular piece of diamond plate.  The frame and the hour and minute hands are flat black.  The last 1/2 inch of the second hand is bright red, the rest is flat black.  the picture doesn't show that off as well as I would like.

I'm almost out of material, so for those of you who don't like these works, you wont have to endure much more.  For those of you who do, don't worry, I'll be on to similar clocks soon enough.  This clock is currently for sale on Etsy.  Follow the previous link to view it.
