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.

ROCK and FLOWERS   8 x 10   Acrylic
An intrusive rock adds drama to a corner of the garden, and this landscaping area is a cozy corner with many varied textures. Flowers come and go, but the rock and posts solidify the stability of the setting. A splash of red now will soon be changed to the oranges and yellows of late summer.

SUNSHINE ADDED TO GARDEN PATH   11 x 14  Acrylic

 
Several suggestions were to add streams of sunshine to the illustration of the garden path. I am not certain this was the right move, but it was fun to experiment. Painting is all about capturing the light and there is still much, much more to learn.

"GARDEN PATH"  11 x 14   Acrylic
 
This painting is a continuation of my series of pathways and it has much detail in it via the varieties of flowers. I debated on putting shafts of sunlight streaking from the left side of the illustration. Any suggestions?
