I live in rural New Brunswick which provides most of the subject matter of my paintings. I have a three-wheeled bicycle with a large basket on the back where I can store my paints, a chair and a table and anything else needed. When I am painting, I am in a world of pure concentration. My goal is to create spontaneous, balanced and authentic works of art with the hope that people who see my art will feel the same kind of pleasure that I do.
Sandy, I work with triads--three colours, one blue, one red and one yellow. This is a triad I picked out because it reminded me of Autumn: Thalo Crimson, Quinacridone Gold and Cobalt Blue in this painting. The idea of triads orginates with Nita Leland www.nitaleland.com/project/triad.htm I have tried all her suggestions and it helps me learn about mixing and using colours.

Beautiful...is your palate a touch different lately...I'm wondering if you are doing the "limited" amount of colors ...
whatever you're doing it sure is striking.
