Color is an amazing thing. We relish its vibrancy, its intensity. Our bodies respond to color,
affecting our emotions and sometimes how we perceive the world. The attributes of paint
allow us to explore one color in relation to another. Discoveries we make as we use the
brush to push paint around our canvas provide lessons in harmony, balance, and
relationships. Painting is rewarding and challenging. May the lessons continue
as we explore our world of color.

ABSTRACT   8x10

My first abstract has lots of color and it probably breaks all the 'rules' for abstract paintings. This is a small portion of an attractive fabric and I wanted to capture the colors and rhythm. I asked some young people what they saw in it. One said, "A parakeet," and another said, "a lady's shoe." Frankly, I see a fruit salad. What do YOU see?
