Slowing down and observing detail, I find color inspiration everywhere! In the light that glows through the petal of a rose, in the multitude of greens in a cluster of leaves, in old rust and peeling paint. All it takes is looking closely, breathing in the moment–being mindful. Of course, my camera goes everywhere with me so I can capture these little moments, these delicious bits of inspiration, and store them up for later. When my muse hits, I reach into my library of inspiration to create dynamic color palettes that I can incorporate into my art.
