A Single Day

| Anna Cull
Everything Centred Around a Single Day — acrylic on canvas (Drawing Room mock-up), 405 x 405 mm, 2018. Sold.

I’ve been experimenting with my six-word stories again. Several months ago I created a couple of small mixed media versions by transferring printed words onto painted canvases. This time I’ve painted the words so that they are an integral part of an abstract landscape. I’m so pleased with the result that I’m already planning the next one…

Mountains ahead to climb

| Anna Cull

The High Country — acrylic on canvas panel, framed, 2018. SOLD

“It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.” Muhammad Ali

Now framed, ‘The High Country’ will be making its debut at this year’s Pegasus Bay Art Show (Waimakariri, NZ). Artworks from 78 local artists will be exhibited and available for purchase. There will also be an art display by the children of Pegasus Bay School which I am very much looking forward to seeing. The art show runs from 21st – 23rd September.

Improvised (word prompts)

| Anna Cull

These six-word stories were prompted by the Page Flutter Six-Word Story Challenge. The background is a detail of a new mini abstract (below) created with some of the paint left over from ‘The High Country’ and a little added purple.

6. Studied. Tested. Passed. Celebrated. Tested again.

7. The overburdened workhorse summoned the cavalry.

8. The inventor improvised, creating pure fiction.

9. Her instincts were hardly ever wrong.

10. The summit wasn’t their high point.

11. Her big break was not “lucky”!

12. The grind required fresh beans daily.

[August prompts: tested, workhorse, the inventor, instincts, summit, big break, the grind.]

Supermoon at Twilight

| Anna Cull

Supermoon at Twilight — acrylic on canvas, 305 x 405 mm, 2018. SOLD

‘Supermoon at Twilight’ is a revisiting of my study of a supermoon over Moorhouse Ave, Christchurch, in 2013. The new version was painted on a black canvas (of course!). The work-in-progress images (below) show i) work on the composition (mainly tweaking the city silhouette) and ii) changes to the underpainting colours prior to adding the final layers. Go, moon, go!
