Painted in my friend’s studio in Santa Fe, this painting was inspired by a small red chile resting on a window sill. It took my breath away—this simple point of Joy—against the background of warm wood, blue sky, and the spring green leaves of the tree growing in the courtyard outside. As I built up the layers of colors in the piece the red and aqua went back and forth—more red/less blue, more blue/less red—and in the end, the blue emerged—quietly and gradually. But that bit of spicy red on the window still gules. This work of Joy measures 24”x24” on gallery-wrapped canvas and comes wired and ready to hang in your home or office.
