Where joy and colour converge!
Joie de vivre = Putting colour on canvas
My first, and most exciting, decision when starting a painting is, “What colours will I use?”. I am hypersensitive, even reactionary, to the colours around me, so this decision is paramount and probably my favourite in the whole process.
The colours will dramatically influence the mood and feel of the painting, which brings me to my next decision, “What feelings do I want to convey?”. Will this be a painting of joy-coloured calm or colour-charged energy?
And last, but not least, “Taking into consideration the colours I’ve chosen to evoke the emotions I want to convey, what is the best scene for this painting?”
Be sure to contact me and leave me a comment or any questions you might have.
Would you like to know more about one of my paintings? Let me know.
I would love to hear from you.
Join me on this journey of joy and colour by stepping out of the chaos of every day life into Joy-Coloured Calm or Colour-Charged Energy
