Description
A beautiful drummer's rhythm becomes one with the pulse of the Earth itself, as she creates perfectly balanced sculptures of tree and stone.At last, after all this time, the fourth and final musician of my Instrumental Elements series! The quartet is now complete! Let's JAM!

The flow of living nature and stone eons old is one of my favorite subjects for photography. Whether it be natural stone formations or the crumbling ruins of an ancient castle, built with stone that was old before the structure was first conceived, I find its combination with the pulse of nature to be one of the most soul touching dualities. Your art here captures that concept through it's sculpture of tree and stone.

There's nothing on the planet that captures the essence of tremendous age quite like stone is there? You're right, ancient rock coupled with thriving plants and forests is an extremely beautiful and moving juxtaposition. I'm glad you found my painting touching!

I don't know where to start! Incredible Incredible! Its such an awesome thing to be out jamming in nature and get lost in the world beat and just play....and you captured it on the nose!

Thank you so much! I wanted her to seem as if she and her music are part of their surroundings.

nice sound waves, they're faint and slightly seethrough which makes them more believable.

Thanks! Each of the 4 paintings has something done in white paint, which I hardly ever use.

Trying to make something slightly see-through is hard, I would imagine. But then, painting is hard in general. You make one titchy mistake and it ruins it. You are a lovely painter. I adore your gemstone series

*pulls up a drum and starts pounding away*
Hellooooo percussion! lol
Strange.. I'm such an air baby.. but drums get me all the way! Well.. and chimes now that I think of it.. and I suppose that would be air ish...

Lol, drums will definitely pull you into the moment! Chimes would have been pretty too, but I agree, that would be more airy than earthy. Air baby? Do you mean you're an air sign? If so I guess I'm a waterbaby.

Is the mention of the complete quartet a hint that we'll be seeing all four together in the future?

Thank you! Hm, maybe I should photoshop them all together.

I love it! OMG, it's so beautiful and delicate, very feminine!
I hope it is just the scan, so you can modify it a little bit. Give yourself a tad more of space to the right of the canvas, so the rhythm doesn't 'kiss' the border.

Beautiful! If I'm not mistaken, the woman is wearing a sari, right? I think it's the perfect choice, because the flow of the garment complements the curve of the tree.

You're right, it is a sari! I wanted each of my musicians to wear a unique and beautiful cultural costume, and I don't think anything is more beautiful than a sari.
