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.

STILL LIFE  NASTURTIUMS   14x18

Flowers are not an easy thing for a beginning painter. I love the nasturtiums growing in my yard, but to portray them on canvas was a whole different matter! These are a bit bigger-than-life, but the color harmonies are pleasing and remind us of God's creative power.
