I love art of all shapes and sizes. Large scale, small, square, rectangle, ROUND. Artists who take on the circular composition get extra kudos. Check out some examples I’m loving this week!

great pics 🙂 I remember that song like it was yesterday and now got it spinning (right) round in my head – happy teenage memories reignited – thank you!! 😀
Haha, love it!
Cheers!

and you know for me…while i respect the circular canvas, for some strange reason it aggravates me! i don’t mind strange shapes but prefer that it’s kept geometric with lines (triangles, rectangles etc)
Interesting.. I applaud any artist who takes on the challenge of painting on a round surface! I think it makes it that much more difficult to complete a successful composition. But to each her own, my friend! 😉
