Artist’s Statement
Continued: The colors I choose are very happy colors to
me. As a child in the late 1960’s, I lived in Sweden
when bold, energetic colors and Scandinavian design
furnishings were coming into the fore. My time in
Sweden has influenced my color choices ever since.
My “major colors” remind me of my childhood and the
simple pleasures of a being young...like a new pair
of bright red clogs, the striking orange-red
Volkswagen bug our father traveled to Germany to
buy, and eating pickled herring out of the jar. (The
herring I’ve since lost my taste for. :-)
Children in joy are like sunrises to me. No two are
ever alike, and no matter how many I've seen I'm
always fascinated by "just one more".
