August Awe

The month of August carries alot of heart impact. I think these large blue hydrangeas and luminous fresh peaches express the potential moods that result from the nearing of summer's end. The palette says it all: blue and orange, warm and cool, delight and seriousness. My two older kids are off to school, away from home. What freedom! What emptiness... My youngest starts school in a couple of days and I will be back on track for my own pursuits. But what should they be? Where do I go from here?! Perhaps this painting (it's large, 22x26") is really about mid-life...August Awe, August Ahhh, August Aaaa!
