Artist Statement: This series is all about the feeling of the four seasons, as expressed through color. I believe each season carries associative feelings and the unique color combinations that typify each season can trigger these associative feelings. Although each season is unique, I created the set to be consistent in its schema so that the set could be cohesively understood, compared, and displayed. This series pushed my artistic practice into new realms of materials and techniques in order to execute a full series of original works that could be offered at an accessible price. I hope that you enjoy reflecting on the story of the four seasons as told through my color interpretations in this series of artworks.
For most of my life, Atlanta, Georgia has been my home. Living in the south, our summers are dominated by hot sunshine, and a lot of the time, clear blue skies. With this piece, I really wanted to convey this feeling of warm sunshine on a clear day. The contrast of the orangey-yellow boundary against the sky blue is one of my favorite pairs of complimentary colors, and for me, it really emphasizes that feeling of bright sunshine on a summer day.
