A challenge
Just a few minutes ago I received a request to pick from a couple of artists, one piece of their work to present to a few other artists. It is great timing because besides cleaning I just am relaxing. So to go through these artists, their life stories and their artwork will be delightful. As well as dipping into something a little different than I do currently. A warm change.
As I sit here researching two of the artists I am seeing already their works popping up. Even in the aspects of ones I would not normally work with myself. In the instance of geometric pieces. I do not like sharp lines very much. I have this odd contortion inside my brain that responds with crushing. I find that squares and triangles, horizontal and vertical lines just need some softness to them. And yet I am finding myself making the except to the rules with a few pieces presented.
I think it falls down to the fact that I work with primary colors and values. Seems a bit rudimentary but I have always loved my primary colors and played off my primary colors. Although a stark white and a dark gray is what I am partial to, alongside of the strength in blue and red. Yellow is a sparing color for me. It does not represent happiness or warm. Red does. Blue is a color that I have everywhere in my room.
So I am a bit excited to see where this research and which pieces I discover I am going to do an expansive piece on. Then to decide whether to do a short and exact profile of my view of the pieces or to really explore the whole piece.
This is the fun challenges I have missed. Research and writing. I have not done so much in a while, except that of genealogy. So today is going into a fun evening for sure.
Just so bouncy and loving every minute.
