 Painting is truly a pleasure for me. Lush, vibrant color and juicy brush strokes folding around a form capture my imagination and, I hope, that of the viewer. In addition to painting, I have been teaching ballroom dancing for 30+ years. As a professional dancer and teacher I have been making art with movement and music. Dancing sustains a mood, creates drama. Paintings have the same theatricality. Objects are as characters on a stage. There is movement and stillness, the play of light and shade, lyric story telling, color and music. The viewer is the choreographer creating the content. Dancing is the song of life and painting is the record. Please enter and enjoy. All images and content copyright: 2010 Karen Trimble |
