Art and Words

I occassionally write, too.

“The intersection in that piece is loaded to the brim with memories from a very adventurous time of my life, full of growth, change, new friendships and new marriage. While many people probably don't take note, I've always been visually obsessed with road signs, overpasses, stop lights, light and shadow. So, clearly nostalgia was the major draw to this painting.  That being said, I've seen plenty of other nostalgic artwork that I've never given a second thought about. It was the way you captured the light, a moment, a little square of time that compelled me to buy "One Way”. You have a great painting style but the way you compose your paintings is what really draws me in.”

12 Days - 6 Paintings

Yesterday, I laid out my paints and pre-mixed several colors and values. Walking in to the studio this morning was easier to do because I felt more ready to start painting. Even though I'm using a limited color palette, I don't feel like I'm limited by my color choices. I really thought I'd feel deprived not having all the colors I typically use. I'm thinking more of value and whether the color is warm or cool, thinking about the placement of that warm or cool value and what it does to the form when I lay it in. I didn't think I'd be doing as much thinking either during this process but I am. It's a work in progress in finding where the thinking and the intuition come together during the painting process for me.
