Emotions are like colors in nature: mixed. Yet, rushing out of the blender of our thoughts, pure positive or negative feelings strike us, simultaneously. Our reptilian brain is seconded by our rational reasoning and we do our very best to sort this entangled flow out, producing purified ideas looking very much like base colors. Yet, these do not come without strings attached to the original stew. The painting is a deconstructed visual snapshot of this process. Textured lightly with Italian modeling paste and layered with warm acrylic colors - gold, grey, white and black.
