Painting of the Month- February 2022

I have been exploring the colour purple this month in my work. Light mauves to dark aubergines as seen in the sunsets over quiet lakes. Purple is said to both calm and stimulate our bodies, putting us in the right place for introspection and focused insight.

It fosters creativity by awakening our senses while promoting the quiet necessary to make intuitive, insightful observations. Purple creates a harmonious balance of awareness and peace. I'd like to think I have captured this in this quiet contemplative piece. -Susan
