Spring 2013




I think with Spring arriving I am inspired to work with more color in oils. I was commissioned to do a little house painting (see first image), and in doing so I felt the freedom I sometimes feel to go beyond the colors I see in real life. I want to experiment with colors next to each other and their rhythms. I choose houses and simple barns to free up the ability to show a more "color field" approach to composition.I am looking at Hopper, Thiebaud, Kahn and Rothko for inspiration and guidance.
