Form or Color? Which is more important - this is the question that's always in my head. I love both. I LOVE form. I love seeing the volume and weight of an object in a painting. But color ..... ah .... how I ADORE color. Color feels alive to me. One part seeing, one part feeling, hard to choose. Both are magic.
So true - I'm glad we have both. Color often supports form.
ReplyDeleteThank you for having a look Jeremy!
ReplyDeleteYes, both ARE magic, and play off one another.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, Karen.

mmmm, and then there is Negative Space! painting is so fun - glad to have you back blogging about it -d
ReplyDeleteI love what I am seeing here!
ReplyDeleteColor does it for me- doesn't matter what it is- but that's what gets my attention when I look around. Ironic 'cause I have such trouble translating what I see to a painting. You on the other hand, have it under control.
Hi Karen-
ReplyDeletethank you for your comments. I have been coming here for a couple of weeks (I think it's been a couple of weeks- lol - time slips away from me sometimes)and I always find something that triggers a thought, or a tip that helps me in my frustration with painting!
I hope it was ok that I talked about you in one of those posts of mine- I am not sure yet what is rude, or simply not done.
Thanks again- oh- and I would love to put you on my side bar (is that what it is called?) as a favorite site of mine-
Take care-
jenny
