Right Brain? Or Left Brain?

I was going to tell you how right- or left-brained I am and why I have to sometimes force myself to let go when creating. But I got distracted learning about what characteristics come from which side of the brain. According to an "online" test, I discovered I am 52% right brain and 48% left brain. I find this all very amusing.

Nevertheless, the following photos show some of my latest watercolour monoprints. When I created these I really tried not to plan or overthink it. They were exercises in play. Which is good for my right brain. Or left brain?
This one welcomes some mixed media or collage.

  1. "Exercises in play" Great. Especially the second one from the top. I love the colours and shapes - in a way it resembles a map of the landscape.

  2. Hi Susan, Thanks for your comments. The second one from the top I have named "Amusement Park" because I thought it looked like an amusement park MAP!
    Cheers

  3. My local library purchased The Map As Art, by Katharine Harmon, one of the books you led me to via your links. Thanks again. I’m enjoying the images, and it’s a good read. It’s great to be able to have this book in our library system for the many artists in the area to benefit from.
