Emily Mason
The American abstractionist, Emily Mason, uses color the way it ought to be used: with gusto! If your coloristic spirits are lagging, go see her work for inspiration.
I read an interview where she says she thrives on spontaneity, and do-overs deaden pictures for her. I relate to that, and it's nice to hear commiseration of this experience.

Thanks for this post, Casey! I didn't know of this artist. Love it!
I've been wanting to post on EM for a long time.
I just found your blog through a search for Emily Mason. Thank you! There is so little written about her, thanks for mentioning her work. She has been my inspiration for sometime as I make my way to abstractions. Linda Packard
