Experiencing Goethe's Color Theory

As a mature visual artist and maker, I still make time to review and re-enliven the basic concepts and assumptions that underlie my artistic practice. I feel that this inner development contributes to the richness and satisfaction of my most recent artistic output, both in my teaching and in my making.

It took me many, many years to discern and develop an approach and process that I could call my own. I can say that I have stability and confidence in my artistic knowledge and my practice, but I still take the time to investigate the “basics” of artmaking. At different times of the year, when the inner passion and inspiration cools, I take a hiatus and develop a new research project. This research allows me to investigate how certain ideals, materials or practices help or hinder the expression of my inner vision and voice.
