An emphasis on vibrant color

composition while the variations
in colors gives the paintings
an appeal akin to music. I feel
both musical sounds and colors
have a common attribute, they
require virtually no effort to be
enjoyed; Musical notes are as
individual as colors. Both have
a primitive charm that flows
readily through the brain to
inundate our emotions. Various
colors, like music al notes,
stimulate certain moods. The
colors can evoke any number
of emotions while the principle
colors provides balance and
harmonic stability - just as music
does by using counterpoint to
harmony. My paintings provide
the viewer with an experience
of a psychological nature, which
is his or her unique emotional
response to the work.
