This painting by Jack Greenwood shows Jack's other half, Bella in her decorators dungarees and surrounded by all her work gear. A full description of everything in the picture can be found in the previous post of this painting. Bella was born in South Korea and adopted as a baby and brought over to the UK and grew up in Essex. Jack and Bella met when they worked for the same company in London in 2000, they were friends for seven years before getting together and will have been together 18 years later this year. Bella studied theatre design at Uni but when jobs were hard to come by, she started her own decorating business and is highly sought after.

For the #coloradAyPril colour today which is Rose, I repost this painting I did which has many different hues of rose and is of my dear rose Bella in her work gear.

Just realised the stark #contrast on this makes it work for #sensoryart also.

Oil painting by artist Lorn Curry of Vancouver's art deco era Burrard Bridge at dusk with, in the foreground, glass decanters bending light from both the sky and bridge.

Whether you call it #burntorange or #rust, I sure do like how it plays with blues... From 2019, oil on ACM - this is "Art Deco Echo"

This photo by Jack Greenwood shows a mural that Jack and his other half Bella did. It is in the stairwell of his communal art studios. It is done in the style of old cave painting but also has modern elements as if it's been added to over time.

The cave painting mural we did recently has a #burntorange background.

The motorcycle engine shown in the image is a V-twin engine with a very distinctive chrome finish and styling.

Home sweet home, a man needs chrome (heard on the TV Show Home Improvement).
And a pop quiz: what kind of bike is this?

This painting by Jack Greenwood shows Jack laid on a maroon patterned carpeted floor looking terrified. He has blond spiked hair and wears pink boxer shorts. He is surrounded by hooded Beings. Ghostly hands are healing him and saving his life. This is a painting about when Jack had hit a low point and after drinking too much for too long he felt his body shutting down and thought he was going to die. He suddenly saw he was surrounded by hooded Beings and didn't know whether they were there to help him or not. He promised if he made it through the night he would stop drinking. He survived and stopped drinking. 18 months later after going to the doctors and being told he was in perfect health, he went straight to the pub and fell off the wagon. He still wonders if those beings know he went back on his promise. He is three years sober now.

The #coloradAyPril colour today is maroon.
This is a painting I did called 'Hooded Beings'
It's part of my Strange and Sometimes Troubled Memories series.

A selfie of my feet. I'm wearing gray/blue hiking pants and hiking shoes which are covered with dirt and dust from the trail what was graded and not packed down yet. It looks like tan/brown flour. You can also see bike tread marks and other footprints.

A tall, narrow waterfall tumbles down lush, plant-covered rock into amazing turquoise water. There's a log propped up against the rock on the right.

When it's #WaterfallWednesday and the #coloradAyPRIL color is #turquoise, I believe I'm legally required to post a photo of Rio Celeste Waterfall in Costa Rica.
