It Just Blooms!

I don't know who said this, but it is worth repeating! Ophelia Among the Flowers, Odilon Redon "The flower does not think about competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms." NAC students have been blooming! See the information below on our student show. Odilon Redon, 1840 - 1916, painted in both oils and pastels. I love the color and mystery in his work. Redon also describes his work as ambiguous and undefinable:  Vase with Flowers and Butterflies, Odilon Redon "My drawings inspire, and are not to be defined. They place us, as does music, in the ambiguous realm of the undetermined." Look at his complete works here. Let's paint bouquets of flowers as ambiguous, colorful shapes. Be inspired by Spring!   Judy www.judyalbrightart.com   playingwithpastels@blogspot.com
