"Frogger" - watercolor on 4" paper ==== Kicking off a series of phlog posts featuring my art... I've been burying my watercolors under the "less legitmate art" section of my "projects" folder -- as a self-deprecating way to share some of my doodles. But burying my art isn't really sharing it, eh? So, in an effort to actually share it, (while also offering a new excuse to phlog more regularly) I'm going to start writing a little about the doodles I've shared. Also, I've created a top-level "Art" section, featuring my favorites. "Frogger" began as a glimpse I caught of the glistening asphalt of my neighborhood, lit by street light after a recent rain. As I painted, I took the opportunity to employ some of my UV-sensitive hues and bring some vivid shapes to the nightscape. It all became reminiscent of a certain 80s arcade hero. Hope you dig it.
