This triptych is a study of color, emotion, and the very personal ways we experience the world around us.
Three 48 x 60 inch canvases stand together, each built around a single dominant color: teal, yellow, and magenta. Each painting began with a different feeling and evolved through layers of intuitive mark making, movement, and discovery. Rather than illustrating a specific story, each work became its own emotional landscape.
I believe we are affected by color far more deeply than we realize. Before we have words for what we are feeling, color can create a physical and emotional response. One color might feel familiar, energizing, peaceful, nostalgic, or even uncomfortable, depending on the person standing in front of it.
That is what interests me about these paintings. I don't want to tell you what you are supposed to feel when you look at teal, yellow, or magenta. Instead, I invite you to notice which one draws you in. Which one makes you want to move closer? Which one feels familiar? Which one creates a reaction you can't quite explain?
The deep blue wall behind the paintings is an intentional part of the installation. Blue creates a quiet visual pause around the intensity of the three color stories, allowing the brighter colors to come forward while offering a sense of calm and stillness. It becomes a kind of visual exhale between the viewer and the paintings.
Together, the three works become less about three specific colors and more about the space between the painting and the person looking at it. We each bring our own memories, experiences, associations, and emotions to color.
The question isn't what does this color mean?
It's what does this color awaken in you?
