It seems that many of my paintings have the color red in them. I have noticed my color palette is very narrow. Maybe it's just a phase or a season...I don't know. It has been this way for a couple of years now. I am not sure that it bothers me but I am curious about it. Someone once said some of my art is “creepy”...does the red make it creepy? I understand with this particular piece - the red may represent blood but what you don't see yet are the roses - red roses - they are yet still in my head. I did a search online on how to make roses out of aluminum cans. I found something. I want to make many aluminum can roses.
I tend to think of roses as stereotyping beauty and love.
I am not a rose person and I rarely wear red.
Well, i don't think it's creepy at all. I think it is unique and individual. Sometimes not at all what I would think of, but I still like it. That's so cool! Can't wait to see the finished product.
ReplyDeleteAnd red is...well, it's red! Mayve someday you'll be in a "blue" period or a "yellow" phase. I like it.
Oh I like it - this is a Nina during her red period...Oh no, wait, that does NOT sound good!
ReplyDeleteI like thinking in groupings of color however - I haven't thought like that before. Thanks!
