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.

"BLACK & WHITE & RED ALL OVER"   12" x 24"   Acrylic
Vertical paintings seem more dramatic and I chose this coloration to emphasize the drama in my entryway. I like primary colors, and what can be more primary than red and black and white? Okay, maybe a blue and yellow in their own areas, but I will save that for another painting. This being wintertime, there's a suggestion of snow on the ground, yet the warm reds above brighten the top. I'm still experimenting with abstracts, so you can make this painting whatever you will.
