Pléntitude by Anik Dubaere incorporates many peaceful greens and blues. This watercolor painting does not look entirely realistic, but the landscape looks like one anyone can themselves at fishing, swimming, or relaxing. Many elements and colors paint the mind with the picture. All the greens in the trees of juniper, moss, pine, and basil provide contrast for the bright red making way due to the season change. The sky-blue water and the reflections of the trees caresses the mind with serenity

Hello everyone, I thank you all again for coming along to pay tribute to Frank Reprieve Wilcox or more well known as Mr Van Gogh, a member in our community who was not rightly recognised and possibly seen by some as an oddity.

used a similar art style to represent night and day. With van Gough's I have always liked the way the darker colors show how the stars can come out in the night sky.

Ever since I was 8 years old, I have loved learning about the reason behind stars and the night sky. My dad took me to a sky show at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center and I was immediately smitten with it. I would gaze at projected speckles of light on the dome’s screen in awe and fascination as the professor would spit out information like poetry to the audience.
