Capped Parrot Symphony From art to Altered Reality

https://youtube.com/shorts/pvP2A0H3Q-Y?feature=shared

Another excuse to compose an orignal soundtrack with Cubase 14 and a Yamaha MX88.  This short 22 second video shows the transition of a segment from my oil painting, of a fantasy cape-wearing parrot, in a field in Mendocino, to a brightened version of the bird in the actual reference photograph.

Portals: Episode VI Wrought Iron Doors

The finale to a six part series of Spanish Doors painted in Ibiza, Spain in 2005 with photographs from all over the world and some animation.  Also included is an original soundtrack.

Portals: Episode V The Brown Door

Continuing on in my 6 part series of 1 minute videos.  The project started with a series of paintings done in Ibiza, of the local Spanish landscape as seen beyond a made-up doorway.  The first painting, a simple Blue Door, got progressively more complicated with each new painting from Yellow to Green to Red, and now Brown.  Painting #5 added Spanish tiles, a bull, wrought iron and a glass chandelier.   The door in this video opens out to a progression of photographs and animations in the color scheme of the doors, in this case the color brown.  Included are shots taken in India, Greece, Seattle, and Northern California.

Portals: Episode IV The Red Door

The 4th in a series of 6 Portals videos, featuring watercolor paintings of doors painted in Ibiza, opening to a series of around the world photographs that feature the color of the door.

Portals: Episode III The Green Doors

The 3rd in a series of Portals videos, each of which begin with doors that open out to landscapes and animations predominately featuring the colors of the doors themselves.  

Portals: Episode II Yellow Doors

Portals: Episode I The Blue Door

 First in a new series of 6 videos.  What's behind each unique door?  Tune in and find out.

I Have Updated my Website and added More Family Member Artworks!

 Have finally updated my website Lucy Autrey Wilson Art | Exploring My Creative Impulses with more of my art AND have now added a section of art created by my father (E.A. Autrey), and by my husband (Sam Wilson)  in addition to watercolors by my mother (J.L. Autrey) already in a gallery.  These new galleries are accessed on the top of my home page.  There are other areas to explore by clicking on other home page images.  Here are some examples of new art.  Check it out!

Past and Present Video

After a hiatus from taking photos, I finally got my camera out on a beautiful springlike day and took several neighborhood pics.  These were then combined with an original soundtrack and animated with family photos from the past.  Somewhat eclectic to be sure.
