For the current Creative Tuesdays theme, Michael has directed us to create a 'red balloon story in a picture'. He was inspired by the movie 'Flight of the Red Balloon' starring Juliette Binoche. I hope I have interpreted this correctly. It was fun doing it anyway.
I decided to depict my simple red balloon story with 4 ACEO art cards (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in acrylic. It's the story of 'A Nice Day'.
A sailboat sets out on a morning sail:
There is a lucky whale watch sighting:
Before you know it, the sun has set and it's time to go home:
The perfect day ends with a beautiful crescent moon under the stars:

A wonderful interpretation of the theme, love your paintings. Have a great day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great day to me Christine - hope The Red Balloon enjoyed it as much as I did:)
ReplyDeleteCathy
LOVE these paintings. And that really does look like the perfect day :)
ReplyDeletea perfect day!
ReplyDeletegreat paintings
ReplyDeleteI love all these Christine and especially the paint with whales I love them:)
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I wish I had your talent!
ReplyDeleteAs always, your pictures are just perfect for the story. It's a good story, too, for the balloon.
ReplyDeletehow wonderful! I wasn't sure either on the theme but I think you've done a great job.
ReplyDeletehave a sweet day.
This is great, Christine! It certainly is the perfect day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful journey! I love your red balloon painting and adventures!
ReplyDeletePerfect, love how you have depicted a story with little ACEO cards. Each one can stand alone or be as a cohesive group. Love your bright colours as well. First class interpretation Christine.
ReplyDeleteWell I was impressed with the story and following that red balloon for a special day.
ReplyDeleteOh yes you certainly have, Christine...and then some! WOW. I loved the first one but then saw the whale one and had to chuckle then adored the orange sunset and wrapping up with the twinkle starlights. Aw. It's a sweet series here. One painting would have been enough but for this theme, the others really add to it too. Each rendering is lovely as is the story. It so simple that there is a certain ennui in its telling. Magical. Love it. Thank you
ReplyDeleteChristine, I LOVE your (multiple) takes on this round's theme. Wow! I think my fave is the moon, then the sailboat. Such a brilliant idea. Hopefully, it didn't take you too long to do 4!!! :)
