The Carol Singer

This ‘carol singer’ is, in fact, a simple seaweed pattern as found on the beach  –  nothing has been added and nothing taken away.  Only the background has been removed and the palette reduced to white on blue.

This pattern of seaweed is exactly as found.

Seaweed abstract ‘Yesterday’s Pop Star’

This is a natural seaweed pattern.  The sand has been bleached out and a little colour saturation has been applied.  The result is an image reminiscent of the appearance and hair style once favoured by pop stars!!

Seaweed silhouette

For me this is an entirely abstract image  –  that is, it is not dependent on any narrative interpretation.   I just enjoy the manner in which the sinuous lines invade the white canvas, explore the space and, incidentally, create interesting shapes and patterns.

Seaweed abstract ‘The Confidants’

As with earlier posts, such as The Mystic and The Mendicant, this is a seaweed pattern as found.  Nothing has been added and nothing taken away  –  except the sand (a few grains of which have been retained).  A touch of saturation has been applied.

Seaweed tiara

Wisps of seaweed can assume interesting patterns/shapes.

Abstract 174 ‘Pale face’
