“Man needs color to live; it's just as necessary an element as fire and water.” -Fernand Léger

The secret language of color is one that I find so fascinating and exciting because color illuminates everything in the Universe. Color has the power to shift moods; it can excite, relax and protect. As an artist, there are times when I want to create something stimulating, and other times, calm.

In this lecture, I will discuss the significance of color, both in our lives and in the natural world, as well as our art. I’ll touch on a bit of science, color relationships and explore our personal preferences. Work from artists using different mediums will be shared to further illustrate the power of color.

Note there will be no recording of this lecture.
