Thanks @carlgnash! I was pretty much blown away at each new place we visited. Amazing mix of super modern with ancient cultural styles. This is the first trip I've taken since Greece, so have been dry

Thank you so much @c-squared! I appreciate it.

You're welcome @trincowski. I find Tokyo rather overwhelming, though it is full of amazing places. I went to TeamLab the last day. Have you seen that? It's a crazy visual experience.

thank you! @thekitchenfairy

Thank you @steemitboard! Much appreciated.

Thank you @c-squared. I appreciate it.

@veryspider I like your description! I agree it does feel like a summer path, maybe breezy and movement in the trees. Playful, not heavy. Thanks for your thoughts. I am just sketching it out on canvas

Thank you so much @c-squared. I appreciate it.

Thank you @aalagenesis. Color palettes are often a challenge. I tend to like more subdued colors for doing paintings, but I'm trying to brighten it up a bit. When I see a palette I like, I try to take

Thank you @veryspider. I like your description of it. That is what aimed for - allowing your eye to bounce around in a playful way. There is just a hint of perspective here and there, so you aren't lead

I guess I just don't understand how it works. I'll look into it, thanks! @trincowski

Thank you! @steemboard

Thank yew @steemcow

Thank you @slickhustler. It's fun to play with words and imagery, especially when there is humor in it! Appreciate your comments.

These are really great – wild explorations of form. nice work.

Thanks @trincowski! You can't go wrong with Mexican beaches. Glad you like them!

Thank you so much @ocd!

All was good at the end, for sure. Actually that was the best part of the trip because we had to make it up then, and there is a sense of freedom and adventure in that. Glad you like the post @delishtreats.

Thanks @foxcauldry. Glad you like the post. I don't remember where I found that #steemsketchbook tag.

Thank you @veryspider. I love Mexico. The beaches, the colonial culture, the fantastic Mayan ruins, the climate. Not having a hotel room was kind of unsettling, but I've always wanted to take a trip unscripted
