The Purple of Lilacs


Is there anything more purple then Lilacs? Maybe, but to me if I think purple I think Lilacs.


Lilacs bloom in early May. There is a lot to be said about having a large vase of Lilacs by your bed as you drift off to sleep with that glorious smell.


I always get caught up in the drama and romance of them. It is interesting how the scent can conjure up memories and I am in a time machine taken back to another time and place. The fragrance takes me back to a time as a child on the farm playing in the warm spring air under the Lilac bush. The lilac was so old it was more like a tree then a bush. Climbing its gnarly branches and siting up so high where no one could see me, I would read my adventures of places I wanted to see in the lilacs.

Can you smell the lilacs through my words?

Expressioins in Teal, 1020

Abstract Expressionism is suppose to invoke an emotion in the viewer.Today my emotions are in teal.
Abstract Expressionism has no distinct image instead you are looking at how someone feels how it comes across as action,color,and movement. My paintings are always full of color and movement but with this series of abstract work I am concentrating on how I feel at this moment.Today I feel Teal.
