I am so ready for a bit of R&R this weekend, aren’t you?  This traveling lifestyle that Mr. F and I enjoy has its perks but the desire to see as much of each area as possible while we are here mean that weekends are rarely spent doing much relaxing.  These paintings on paper by Anna Topuriya have a lovely sense of ease and leisure to them.

 

The pale palette creates a peaceful atmosphere and the pops of cerulean blue are tiny little seas of calm.  The tropical motifs definitely help foster that sense of a visual vacation, as well as the artist’s compositional style similar to Japanese painting, celebrating the beauty in simplicity.

To see more of Anna Topuriya‘s work, please visit her website.  Now excuse me, I think I need to find myself a hammock and a pina colada.
