I enjoy looking at Josef Albers and Johannes Itten's on color theory. This piece is an homage to them except that I find that I need more than just flat squares of color to interest me as I work on a piece. But I love the theory and application of simultaneous contrast that I've learned from them. Simultaneous contrast is the push and pull of colors...of colors on top of each other. The same color will read differently depending on what it is next to.
This painting is not yet on my website but will be up soon. It is available to purchase. All my paintings are on wood and paint extends around the outside edges so no frame is required. Dimensions are H24" x W18".
beautiful painting.
