Week #4 – Sea Green and theme = “To The Sea” This week we are combining our Creative Color Challenge with the lovely Cathy Nichols and her Found Art Friday for August which has a theme of “To The Sea”. Cathy and I thought this would be a really fun thing to do to add an extra twist.
All you need to do is create your piece using Sea Green with the theme “To The Sea” and either blog about it or post your image to the flickr group by Thursday Aug 26th and Cathy will also feature our work on her blog. How lovely is that! (please add a blog link to your flickr upload if you blog about it)
So in addition to the theme “To the Sea” added to this weeks challenge, you can create in seagreen, white and black and also add just one or two more colors to your creation – you decide on the colors, but remember Seagreen is still “centre stage.” This is quite a challenge as yes last weeks color would of been more perfect, but that’s all the fun!
The color green represents the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, freshness, and fertility. Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Also associated with love and warmth. It governs growth in general.
I hope that being part of this challenge has fostered some growth. I know it has for me. 🙂
Cant wait to see what gets created this week. Please add your images to “The Creative Color Challenge” Flickr group by Thurs 26th to get featured on FAF or by Sat 2pm EST (ill be sharing some of the images on my wrap up post next Saturday), please tag photos with the color “green”
It’s not too late to participate! The Creative Color Challenge, is open for 2 more weeks, so email louise[at]britcreative[dot]com to join in and get your name and blog/website link added to the participant list.
Hi, I'm Louise and thank you so much for visiting me here. I am a mixed media artist, who is passionate about combining the healing energy of nature and color with the meditative process of mandala making
ah, I love sea green and turquoise. I would love to have done the creative colour challenge, but knew I had to slow down this summer after doing sooooo much at the start of this year. It's so fab seeing what you're doing and on other's blogs too. Very inspiring.

I love this colour, and I love the ocean, so very excited about this one. I haven't done a great job of keeping up (August was supposed to be quiet, but then we moved house!!), but I have enjoyed checking out everyone else's and am definitely going to do this one. Thanks for the inspiration!
