and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard.

Hi Eric, nice to find your beautiful blog! I love the story and the colors of your water -post, thank you:) Leena
Hello Eric,
coming via Patrice and the dc, ja, it is nice to find you and your blog here!
'what is soft is strong' is an most applicable quote here (even your words) and illustrates your beautiful collage and décollage in a special way. Great!
Ariane.
hay hi, cheers for stopping by.
i love the paradoxes. getting around a bit i find your work somehow very textural and tangible. i would like to touch it!

Love the quote and your creations (both water and others)
I have visited your blog off and on over several years, Eric, and always love what I see here in your spare and enigmatic, deeply thought provoking collages. Welcome to the drawing challenge.

Hello Eric- so nice to meet here :)
I love your thoughts on this challenge- looking for contradictions in life is always on my radar...
Your work is wonderful and strong- so much texture and the colors so soft- well done and I look forward to seeing more of your work :)
best- Kristen
Hello, yes you're so right mentioning the paradoxon that something soft like water can be stronger than a rock. Your abstract artwork with its wonderful turquois and pattern and textures evokes perfectly the feeling of sitting and watching the ocean!
Nice to meet you this way!

hmmm... i like the texture and layers
the words and
the 'words' in the artwork
thanks for participating
and hope to see you around again!
Patrice A.
the colors, texture and movement in your art is a joy to see.
i love this:
As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft,
and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard.
such a good reminder, thank you ~
oh my... water forever holds my fascination... stunning work..
