You definitely flatter me.I'm a draughtsman by birth who flunked high school geometry and had to take it over in summer school. Today I find that funny, for geometry is all I've been doing when doodling these and while designing residential interior floor plans for a lot of years.<br />We are of the same generation. Honey and I married in 1960. Honey introduces me as his second wife. He likes to flatter me too. I haven't heard of color/colour. I think I'll do some sleuthing online. Meanwhile I'm off to another art show this morning to size up the competition in this state of Michigan. An art hobbiest most of my life, I'm thinking of "coming out" into the world I saved for later. Later is here.Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-89842464904302727952012-04-09T09:31:38.074-04:002012-04-09T09:31:38.074-04:00It's amazing how excited these conceptual pain...It's amazing how excited these conceptual paintings can get you.<br />Hung on the wall, often giant in size, with plenty of space around them to let you breathe, they shout at you and pull you in. They have a grand presence that cannot be ignored and always make me smile. You do know Kathryn that these are the paintings that layman always remark "I could do that" as they pass by. But you and I both know these are complex structures, exacting, color-wise and very time consuming.Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-205864726978674142012-04-09T09:09:30.226-04:002012-04-09T09:09:30.226-04:00Wow Linda

This is so exciting you can't believe it :0)) Linda!<br /><br />I thought I had found the key to the universe when I started drawing Isometrics in 1953!! Then sheer and half-breadth plans in Naval Architecture ... but whilst I have been scrambling around with the basics you were inventing a whole new dimension ... or three!<br /><br />Look, it's going to take some time for me to get my little brain around this blog of yours. How exciting ... and you seem the right vintage ...Pat and I married in 1959, she still introduces me as her first husband, reckons it keeps me on my toes (same old jokes, sorry)<br /><br />See you later - you've made my day (but what's this new concept? Color/Colour? ... I've heard of it somewhere!!)Gatepost productionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061920423331681586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-87681902881009376042012-04-08T17:59:09.984-04:002012-04-08T17:59:09.984-04:00Linda, I love your BIG painting, and the graphic o...Linda, I love your BIG painting, and the graphic one of "depth".

To me, Vasarely seemed to be more about the dimensionality of color with regards to values. Simplistically: some hues come forward,while others fall back depending upon their lightness or darkness--but it's been a while since I've thought about any of this. Museums do this to me--particularly ones I've never visited before.Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-43282295559006793112012-04-08T13:39:26.989-04:002012-04-08T13:39:26.989-04:00Such an interesting post Linda.

But in the apartment, without any get-down-and-dirty studio space, this style, rigid and disciplined and intellectual, was all I had room to do. It was also the kind of drawing I was doing on the job, but , would you believe, looser!Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-54443239908779648612012-04-08T12:25:39.197-04:002012-04-08T12:25:39.197-04:00I love your painting, you must have been so precis...I love your painting, you must have been so precise working it out.
