"Color! What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams."
1848 - 1903
As a writer, I have lived in a black and white world. The pages of books are black and white. The page I write on is black and white. I have come to color only slowly when I took up the study of art about a decade ago. The complexity of color is hard to understand. Since the impressionists, color has been celebrated and let free. The old Dutch masters were darker, deeper. What is the color of your life? Bright? Sparkling? Deep? Dank? Dark? Autumn is coming — my favorite season. A time of reflection. The colors shift and darken. The greens fade from the world. We see yellows, reds and browns. Then winter will be here and we are back to black and white, waiting for spring to sprout.
