Here I am- home for over a week with around 11 huge canvases at my complete disposal. All of the time and resources I could ask for.....and my mind is totally blank. No ideas. Barely enough motivation to lift a paintbrush and casually contemplate its contours.
So, instead, I research. Ideas have to come from somewhere, after all.
Patrick Heron, a British painter, writer and designer, has a unique style that seems at times like Matisse's paper cut-outs, and at other times like Rothko's colored blocks and lines. He composes his works with color at the forefront of meaning and importance. Using bold, bright colors and large blocks or shapes of each one, he draws the viewer in to his designs like bees to a flower.
