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.

FLOWER MEDLEY   8 x 10


Taking another stab at abstract style, it's fun to mesh vibrant hues in a riot of color. Experienced painters might cringe to see my results, but it continues to be a growing experiment to portray subjects as if seeing life through half-closed eyes. Ha!
