After being in the Grand Canyons over the holidays and seeing the majesty of color in those wild canyons, I couldn’t help but use an image of a painting, I made some time ago of the wilderness (”Kaleidoscope Woods”).
This is how I see the wilderness, a riot of color!
Ahhh…I can’t imagine life without color or the wilderness, it provides balance.
I’m ready for the adventure of “wilderness” this year, I think that translates into adventure. Let’s live life to the fullest!

Lovely! This is so free– do you ever feel like sometimes you are just watching a painting “happen” ? This looks that way. Wonderful colors!

Lovely colors! And I agree with Krista, the trees seem so free. Even though all the flowers make me think of a park. A lovely landscape

Yeah, I’ve been there - if not in person, in my mind. Nice!

this is gorgeous and i love you colour choices always
btw: your link from IF is not good although you can go to your
home page but you might want to repost?

This is a piece I’d think I’d see in a museum..just so beautiful, Indigene! Really, it takes me right to the south of France. And yes, I think your post for IF has an error, so if you’d like to repost, that’d be cool so that everyone can see this beautiful illustration. Happy new year to you, Indigene!

Indigene, you said it so perfectly. This is a riot of color, and the most beautiful, exciting riot I have ever seen! It’s a celebration of color!
January 25th, 2010 at 6:50 pm
Fierce colors Indigene! The wild is truly a spectrum of colors… my favorite is the almost neon green of spring buds!

Indigene–
Great use of color and nice words. Like you, once I see something I like, I always want to draw and paint it. You have a very active site.Thank you for being such a loyal commentor to my posts. Keep on painting!
January 30th, 2010 at 5:36 pm
Oh Indigene girl…this is breathtaking!!!
I’ve always been drawn to other artist’s interpretations of ‘wooded’ paintings in any season.
ooooh, bravo!!!!
February 6th, 2010 at 2:32 pm
a fun thought’; to place woods pieces in a Kaleidoscope and spend the day twirling it around
February 11th, 2010 at 6:20 am
Yes, great colours and energy in your work and thanks for your comment too, I appreciate it.
February 11th, 2010 at 11:22 pm
Beautiful painting, the colors are vibrant. It reminds me of fall at Ohio University. Great work.
