Casey, your work is thrilling! So confident, essential, and loose/precise. Gaaaahhhhh. Why can't I be you???? (Maybe because I don't work as hard? Maybe because I don't work as often? Maybe because I don't....) :-))))
Hi Casey! Even simpler sounds very enticing -- farther down the path of abstraction and allowing the "it" of the painting to just become the entire piece. Color bouncing back and forth, bumping into shapes, and pulling the excited viewer in to stay a long while and explore it.
These are great, Casey! I'm glad to see at least someone has been having a productive time in their studio so far this year...
ReplyDeleteThat bright fuchsia pared with the greens in that Italian(?) architecture painting just delights me on many levels.
Yes, that is a very small town in the Apennines named La Ca. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWoW! What color drenched pieces and what gorgeous colors. These are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYou are kind, Sharon.
ReplyDeletelovely, just simply and purely lovely! and that's a compliment.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cindy. It means a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love how you photographed these on top of the pastel...the photo is a work of art in itself

ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting, Celeste. It was a cool idea - mainly I took it there for the daylight by the windows.
ReplyDeleteAll my Portland chums at once! Hi, Sarah.
ReplyDeleteYour work is very fine, and the secret is to find your own voice, huh? It is time consuming, too.
Hi Casey,
ReplyDeleteI love how you simply the shapes and say so much with just color!!! You speak my language and I love it.
Keep up the great work.
Linda
Thank you, Linda. I almost wonder if they couldn't go even simpler?
