I have long suspected that, if it were measured, my heart skips a beat when it encounters color.

I probably exhibit tell tell signs of a run away pulse as well.

And potentially don't breathe as deeply as I should--holding my breath

In breathless anticipation

All for the love of color.

Like a lovesick teenager, I would surely pine to my grave were the world to suddenly go black and white.

For today

Why not let yourself fall in love again?

The exact amazing beauty of the flushed cheeks on a child's face.

The one of kind color that blankets the sky at the magical moment of sunrise.

Every bloom, each bird, a thousand leaves on a tree--just waiting for your eyes to light upon them

for their beauty rests in your eyes,

the Beholder.

The study of color.  I know as it relates to art, their are volumes written on just that.  Well, I guess I may as well come clean here on the color thing as applied to my paintings.  Color theory is not what drives my wagon.  I am just not a complicated person.  Color makes me happy.  And particular combinations of colors only make it worse (or better, depending on how you look at it..:)  It's that simple. 

Which brings me to this combination.  Blue shutters (with touches of Caribbean blue, magenta and  radiant blue) nestled up against a crush of boisterously pink flowers ( with hints of transparent red, permanent rose, and indian yellow) all on a building in France.   Well, it's just nearly more than a fellar can take.

And that's my excuse (and Lord knows I need one) for being fixated on color. 

Wishing you an exceedingly color filled day!!
