" “The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love color the most.”  ― John Ruskin, The Stones of Venice It is pretty obvious by my work that I love color. I have an addiction to color. That addiction means when I walk into a store with clothes... I only see color... not the actual dress, or shirt, or coat. It really is detrimental to my budget. I am successfully working on this shopping addiction to color. When the closet has six black sweaters, four green ones, four white ones, two grey ones, one red one, one orange one, one rose colored one and two navy blue ones... uh oh....and you see it happening with tops and sweats too.   QUESTION: What do you think happens when I walk into an art store and the stimulation is OFF THE CHARTS....?

I have learned to wait and if it seems good today and tomorrow and maybe in a few weeks... then act on it!  I am exploring both in painting and in writing thinking more abstractly I would say.   Blast of Blue was a good lead for me to test skills and it will take a few more like this.  I need to be even more basic.  Will try another direction tomorrow with a cradled Panel.  Thinking these will all be $199 right now as I experiment and take this journey.
