Scarlet Love. As winter is nearing its end I’m discovering a new love for scarlet red. I’m painting and photographing all things in warm scarlets and fiery reds more and more as the weeks progress. I am taking advantage of my “scarlet love” while it lasts.
Things will change in a few weeks. Temperatures will soar into the 90’s reaching 100 plus, then my palette infatuation will change again. I’ll be painting cool aquas and turquoise, nice refreshing colours. I know, just call me fickle!
My Scarlet Love won’t last forever, but it will last for one more brush stroke, one more painting!
The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop

Absolutely beautiful… I hope you have a great weekend ahead! Aquileana 😀
Debi, this post is a feast for the eyes! I love it! So much inspiration here. Do you prefer the very warm temps? What are temps like for you now? 60s-70s, or lower? I hope you are enjoying a wonderful weekend in beautiful Oz! 💛💛💛
thanks Laura 🙂 kinda ‘saucy’ but cute. Perth beat a 15 year record yesterday. 27 c. in winter. thats close to 80 f. normal is 60. these days…. I like the 75 f range. the wildflowers will be in bloom shortly!!
I agree; 75 is perfect. I don’t know how you manage the summers there. I don’t think I could. Ours are bad enough when 85-90 is the norm during this part of the summer.
hi Sharon, thank you for your comments!! very kind of you 🙂 I’d just noticed that everything I was seeing and doing was that scarlet red! which is odd, as I’m not a ‘red’ person in general. I appreciate your comments.
