"Drawing is feeling. Color is an act of reasoning."
P. Bonnard
I am thinking of adding this above quote to my list of quotes on this blog. Bonnard is one of my favorite colorists. He was able to take daily life and infuse it with emotion, in a large part through his choice of color.

"Sanctuary Chateauneuf, FR" 11" x 8 1//2" Pastel |
All I could think about as I worked on this last piece was those warm beautiful stones. It was a lovely day in late June when I saw them last and I longed for that day once more.
