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.

"INVITATION TO RELAX"   8 x 10   Acrylic
 
Another lakeside scene, it was appealing to paint in vivid colors even as the outdoors is white with snow. This scene reminds us that "somewhere out there" are bare sands and rocks, fragrant forests, and warm breezes. There was a temptation to put a moose on the edge of the scene, but you'll just have to believe that he's not far into the woods and keeping an eye on us.
