Woke up early Tuesday morning to the stars shining bright outside my ranch house window. It is a grand place to view the stars that God placed in the heavens on the fourth day. As I contemplated His beautiful Creation, I began to think of how God built His composition. I find it fascinating to think of His creativity and plan during the six days of creating.
\nBeing an artist takes creativity and planning. Thinking the art problems through takes time. The principals of art that I learned first include; contrast, sequence, harmony, unity, direction and balance. These principals are what I think about to create my composition. Outlining a good composition is directional, where your eye goes. A common composition is a series of horizontal lines that is intersected by a single line. Pattern, movement, rhythm and direction all are part of a overall plan of a good painting. My prayer as an artist is for God to bless me with a entertaining composition that will make the viewer stop and take a second look and ponder my story in my creation of art. God is the ultimate artist\/creator. He is the great I Am. Thank you God for Your Creation and the beauty that inspires me to paint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
