			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you know, I take and use photographs in my mixed-media paintings. Most, if not all are distant landscapes and are generally used as monotones and focal points on my canvases.</p>
<p>However, I also admire nature&#8217;s colourful extremes. They are a source of inspiration for me and sometimes where I get my colour palettes from for my wet-on-wet abstracts.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-205" style="margin-left:6px;margin-right:6px;" title="Picture 1" src="http://abstractacrylicart.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/picture-1.png?w=239&#038;h=150" alt="Picture 1" width="239" height="150" />Here are some examples of macro images I took recently that illustrate the intricacy, vibrancy and beauty of Mother Nature&#8217;s work. Hope you like them&#8230;</p>
