Blue Ripple

This magnificently vibrant splash of color exemplifies Gordon’s attention and love for detail.  This image virtually sings with color!  Notice how the flowing blue tones of the water subtly guide the eye into the more subdued hues of the shore.  Gordon has added the dynamic of orange leaves floating on the water to facilitate the progression of the blue which leads our attention to the browns and greenery ashore.  What a lively composition!

Sprocket Oak

This composition captures an oak branch majestically reaching into the sky.  Masterfully reworked by Gordon’s eye and magic, the branches take on the characteristic watery image of a pool reflection as they stretch toward heaven.  This is a lovely piece!  Available framed as priced below.

Peace on Earth

This is another from Gordon’s series “Our Creek Medea”.  This peaceful setting was captured because of its serenity but also because it actually contains a peace symbol, expressed by the horizon line and the shape of the path and the pond.  Note the qualities of the filter and the watery illusions that ingratiate the composition as only Gordon knows how.  It is calming to experience this mastery of the camera on canvas.

Heaven on Earth

I wholeheartedly agree with the title of this piece.  This scene indeed reflects heaven on earth.  Only our artist wasn’t finished by snapping a photo of this bucolic view.  He then added his own colorful twist to this radiant scene, bringing the heavens to earth by the reflections in the water, morphed by an ingenious eye.  As in all of Gordon’s contributions to Arts That Work, this picture is distorted as if the viewer is emerging from the pool, with a slight blur and otherworldliness to the entire composition.  Available as indicated below.

Boogey Man Tree

This is a powerful composition!  Under the eerie looking “boogey man tree” that scares kids of all ages, Gordon has carefully introduced complementary aquas and yellows in the center that delicately counterbalance one another and the softer surrounding tones to make this piece sing.  In the foreground, note the lavenders with yellows encompassed in the warm grays and soft tones that almost look like shells, courtesy of the artist’s magical abilities.   Gordon has masterfully orchestrated a symphony of enlivened natural beauty!  Available in total framed sizes, as below:

Juicy

Described by the artist as an “unusual freak of nature”, the trunk of this tree strangely resembles a part of the human anatomy!  This explains the artist’s attraction to the scene, but look further at the amazing composition and what Gordon has created.  Adding aquas and vivid blues and oranges to create an absolutely surreal effect, Gordon has digitally “painted” magical qualities onto this canvas.  Note how the tree’s trunk mirrors the shape of the hanging branch in the upper right corner of the composition.  This is really a lovely, lively work.  Hardly the photograph from whence it sprang!  Priced as indicated below.

Eve’s Dilema

Note Eve’s woeful expression after the realization of what she has accomplished.  She is now truly behind the eight ball!  Gordon has taken his charcoal drawing, enhanced it with objects, and photographed the resulting composition to be printed with “paint” on a canvas. 

This digital photograph, painted on canvas, is available in three different frames, as priced below, or 16” x 24” unframed on canvas.

Pink Box

Ah, the ecstasy of eating a delectable goody from the proverbial pink box!

Heaven! Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder--in this case, it’s stale cookies.  This whimsically colorful painted print composition, complete with its seemingly underwater quality, measures 29” x 21 ¼”.  Size includes the 3 dimensional contemporary blue ceramic frame with watery swirls and ochre trim.
