GREEN me up

I’ve always had a hankering for a rainbow assortment of foods, but my personal aesthetic has skewed black and white over the years.  I was the kid that wore black, my work concentrated on black and white images for nearly 20 years.  About 2 1/2 years ago, my work shifted, and color began to seep into what I had to say.  Once the dam sprung a leak, the flood waters came.  I did a complete media shift with more color than I can describe, occasionally venturing into neon territory.  Then I spent a month in Scotland.  I took all black clothing with a few colorful scarves and accessories just to simplify packing… 

But, Scotland.  It was awash with the most spectacular light, even when it was overcast.  My lasting impression is of vivid blues and greens.  My clothing became an issue.  I felt like I was wearing a black hole.  When my plane touched down in the U.S. again, one of my first stops was to buy a colorful shirt because I just couldn’t take the black anymore.  This next Call is all about color, and I have the perfect work to submit.  How about you?
