Color in action

"Verb," 5 by 7 #watercolor, 140 lb. Fabriano Artistico cold press paper

Perhaps the most moving force in creation and the universe is the verb. Consider this Spanish translation of John 1:1, more accurate than the English, but you have to know your theology to fully comprende:
"En El Principio, era El Verbo, y El Verbo...."
On a gray rainy day, color stands out, the product of light, of light. Thus yesterday's unicorn, full of color and action and creation.

The freedom of color

St. Pat's Unicorn watercolor

St, Pat's Unicorn, 5 x 7 140 lb. Farbriano Artistico cole press paper

Unicorns. What is it about unicorns? Don't know, but surely St. Pat must have had one as a guide, an inspiration.
And Ireland is surely a land and culture of magic. Even the stars and moon are green.
Some of the magic still exists, based on the response to my earlier unicorn paintings, which are selling.  Thus here is today's watercolor.
Matted and for sale of course.

Unicornacopia? Why not. Today's watercolor, the magic and dust of creation.

Magic

"Magic," watercolor birthday card, 5 x 7

There's still magic in the world, especially if you're a child.
What I love about watercolor is when magic happens  in a painting--something not expected nor planned. It reminds me, as an adult,  that in color and life and love there is still magic.
And what symbolizes magic better than a unicorn...how can you not believe in magic?
