Yellow



Here it is, a prepared canvas. Ready for whichever idea finds it way to the canvas first.

Yellow opens the door for the flood of the rainbow to come in. The plan is for many blues & greens.


"As yellow is always accompanied with light, so it may be said that blue still brings a principle of darkness with it. This colour has a peculiar and almost indescribable effect on the eye. As a hue it is powerful, but it is on the negative side, and in its highest purity is, as it were, a stimulating negation. Its appearance, then, is a kind of contradiction between excitement and repose."
