Connecticut Blue Painting

I've always been defiant and a "think out loud" type of person but also rather spiritual, introspective and mild mannered. My personality is reflected in my works...I am passionate, I tend to gravitate toward bright, bold colors and strong lines one day and then warm, earthy tones with soft strokes the next.. I've never been much of a follower.... I don't always follow the "rules" in art. I don't even necessarily believe that art should have rules because I feel that it limits one creatively and it also limits the veiwer to believe what they should or should not be seeing...I think a mistake can be beautiful so I paint on purpose and let imperfections become part of the creation and lend character and individuality to the piece. While I am inspired by Clyford Still, Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko....I tend to paint according to me. I paint intuitively and go where the brush takes me. I adore abstract, expressionism and conceptual painting and love the freedom and self expression it affords. I love the creative process and the freedom of letting it flow. I tend to paint feelings, thoughts and moments and try to make the intangible; tangible. I paint most days and have few articles of clothing that don't have some paint on them! Painting is my absolute passion. I need to paint as much as I need to breathe. I usually have more paint under my fingernails than on my fingernails. Three things I did today.... 1. Spilled coffee down the front of my shirt 2. Told a bad, third grade joke 3. Laughed at both of the above Show Less
