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.

"CALMING THE JITTERS"   Acrylic    16 x 20



Attitude is important in people and animals. This trainer is working with a young horse who spooks easily and is uncertain about the new activity in an arena. I wanted to commemorate the special bond we have with animals and how our influence can either calm or excite our friends of another species. There were many challenges in this composition and I worked it over a period of several days.
