"Cerulean Blue" by Carol Eliassen

Some call me Cerulean blue. I am a coat of many hues that range from Cyan the great to the depths of the dark deep blue. I’m not really one but many. I sometimes overlay my bluest of friends. I may be dimmer than some but I can accent anyone.

I love to be the colorful flower swaying in the wind or the backdrop of the sky as the white fluffy clouds cluster nearby.

My Artist friend uses me to be a fragment of the color of a fish in a tropical sea or the background of a pink salmon breed. I am versatile at best and can be used with all my palette companions, especially sunflower lemon yellow, flaming tomato red, or that outrageous lime green.

I tend to light up the sky behind the tall snow covered mountains or help that bright frothing white to accent the towering swells that are turbulent in the precarious Bay. I have to admit though my favorite place to be is with a vase of other colors swaying in the breeze.

I am versatile at best not like all the rest. I’m not just blue, I’m also a hue.

My New Artwork

I have now bought enough paint to redo every piece of furniture I have. Why? It is because I love playing with colors. Maybe I never really grew up! Coloring books even made a comeback for adults in recent years. I should have thought of that idea first! I usually digitize my art and then throw it onto my gallery. I am not concerned about sales as much as having a place to put my art. I enjoy viewing it and seeing if I am making any progress in my skill set. I don't always sit and do art, or take my camera everywhere I go, so my progression is really, really slow, but then again, that really isn't my goal in my hobbies and crafts. I just like doing them. I don't need to be the best, or the greatest, or h

My Steer Skull Painting

Steer Skull I have always wanted to paint a Steer Skull. This one looks like it still has one eye and the other has shriveled away. I like it, and I love the colors. My style of art is to have vibrant colors for the background. Hope you enjoy viewing and if you would like to see it on my website, Click Here !

Painting Koi Fish

Koi Fish Having FUN with acrylic paints......trying to paint Koi Fish . I still need more practice, but it is relaxing to paint. I never know how my paintings are going to turn out. Sometimes they are really good, and I am totally surprised. Other times, I think to myself, "What was I thinking?" The good thing is I can paint over and start from scratch. Never a wasted canvas! Below is one of my photographs from the Seattle Japanese Gardens that I used as an example: Koi
