Welcome to Integral ColorViews
A blog about Color, Fine Art, Design, and all that is related!
These will be the topics I look forward to exploring with you.
I’ll welcome your comments, and also your suggestions for future topics.
Why did I call this Blog-“Integral ColorViews”?
My philosophy is that color is Integral to every facet of our lives. So, as a ‘blog’ typically represents a viewpoint, the title seemed obvious.
Color—as a subject for discussion and also as an experience— is fun, exhilarating, fanciful, and practical.. And…it’s always interesting!
But color use also has serious aspects. As an artist and colorist, I look forward to sharing a wide range of tips, books, and color-and-design related subjects with you. I’m also personally inviting you to share your own color inspirations!
Some of the topics I’ll be writing about are tips for color in your home, how you can work with a color consultant, and color trends. Have you ever thought about what goes into the color decisions we make? That’s another fascinating topic. Also, I love to feature profiles of other artists and artisans. In addition, we’ll explore the experience of creating art, “DIY” color tips, color in commercial interiors, exterior color…and much more.art
