The theme for One Word Sunday is Puzzle. And like Bushboy, I also was a little puzzled about what to post.
Then! I remembered it was time for another “art” post and I still have a copy of my Puzzles about Art book (such a little gem).
If you want a taste of the Puzzles about Art book, here is a snippet:
Now…
Time for Art.
Maybe not the kind that leaves us puzzled, but here are some art pieces I have enjoyed recently:
#1 – I call this “In the mood for some sweet ol’ Arizona”
#2. I call this one, “Who spilled the Paint?”
#3. Seeing that it is Sunday, this next one had me thinking of Becca’s Sunday Trees,
#4. This next painting also has a tree, but it is the thinking person that pulled me in. I call this one “Serenity”
#5. Okay, how about one last painting? I call this one “The South” (just what comes to mind…)

The song for this One Word Sunday Post is another Jess Glynne song. We heard two singers this weekend and I told the one guy that his voice reminded me (a little) of Jess Glynne. I have only recently discovered her so I was not surprised he did not know of her music. Anyhow, here is the song I pulled up for him to listen to.
Check it out – Glynne’s voice is cool and the lyric content is good. (ooh, ooh, I’ll be there for you… I got enough love for two)

Okay, so you know I am going to see if you have a favorite art piece from this post.
I like them all, but in order I like 1, 4, 2, 3, and 5. Well I could change my mind tomorrow, but right now that is my preference.

A wonderful post Yvette. I like Jess Glynne too, and she is now keeping me and my cup of tea company!
Your book is great for the puzzle theme – so many puzzling questions on just those 2 pages, and I don’t have the answers!!
And I really enjoyed your art selection. The Sedona sunset is calling to me, especially as I just featured a mural of Monument Valley that is trying to drag me back of to Arizona and Utah 🙂

Right on… and how do you feel about the clouds. The arrangement is so orderly that it makes me pause – and then contrast that with the extra sway in the trees and I think we feel this artitst’s essence. You might be extra busy today so no hurry in reply – but look at the clouds again and let me know what you think.
Also – wonder if it is Miami?

The clouds are uniform and not like any that I see around here. However, they are cheerful and make me wish I was sitting under those swaying palm trees looking up at them. It reminded me of Miami, kind of has that vibe to it.

My favorite order is: 4, 5, 3, 2 and 1. I can also have 4, 2, 3, 5 and 1 as well.
Hmm, that is a bit surprising to know a man’s voice sounds like Jess’s Glynne. Her voice can some time deep but I still think it is still very female.

Hi YC-
THANKS for chiming in on the art – what I take from your two versions is that #1 is definitely your least fav and then #4 is your most – the other three vary – eh? especially 5 – bumps from 2 to 4….
and regarding the guy singer’s voice – it was more of a sound he made that reminded me of Jess Glynne – because you are right – her voice is very female –
but this Elliott singer almost had the yodel kind of thing – not totally the same – but when we met him I just told him that he reminded me of her a little bit – (made good small talk) and I will be sure to share some of his music soon. k?

I would say 5 and 1. 5 actually makes me think of Asia and my past. We’re headed to Arizona soon so 1 makes me excited about the future. I checked out Glynn and went online to listen to a couple more. I dig the nitty gritty of her lyrics. And that art book looks pretty cool. I like the ketchup scheme. That’s funny. Thank you!

well thanks for the visit and for chiming in about the art….
I look forward to your Arizona posts once you get there (and I was trying to have a play on words with Sweet Home Alabama)
and Glynn is not necessarily my generation (although so much music transcends to all) but I only recently heard her Thursday song (on Brit awards) and her voice is so original and fresh – and maybe I appreciate it a little more because it seems we are in the day and some power singers and studio enhanced vocal tracks – and so in the “Ill be there” one it was – um – raw and “nitty gritty” as you said…

Dang it. I’m actually quite disappointed I didn’t get that. I am from Alabama after all. And you made want to go hear her two songs again. I think the most interesting part about her is her raw voice and her raw lyrics set against a pretty upbeat, studio, dance-like feel. Also interesting to read everyone’s differing reactions to her. That’s art for you.

“Who spilled the paint” would look lovely in any room of my house and I would so hang it. Love it. It’s really the only one I’m fond of. I see the merit of two others, but for me it’s the steps and splotches, all the way.

Hi j- you make s really good point with “what you’d hang” in the house because that says a lot.

And I might love certain art pieces but not want to hang them / and I got this beautiful artsy vase for myself last summer – and hated seeing it in my house –
Anyhow – your vote has been noted #2
