What if we were really meant to be happy
Angela Annas
Color brings me joy that I want to share. As humans, we all need something in life to stimulate joy, freedom and peace. When I paint I get into a state known as flow. Flow breaks stress better than anything else. For me it is strong enough that I forget everything else including time and space. However, I feel opened up to everything in the universe.
I hope by keeping imperfections in my work that I can refocus people on how beautiful the world is ------ with its organic nature and imperfections. Everything that someone might call a mistake if they follow conventional rules, is considered on its own merit. If it ruins the painting, it gets painted out and if it enhances the painting it gets left in.
Each painting is thus an experiment in creating beauty, with accompanying trials.
What style of painting? My style may be described as painterly or abstraction. I think of my painting as being spiritual and organic— As a human with frailties and hopes I use the medium of paint with its incredible textures and colors as a tool to create greater awareness, freedom and happiness in the world.
Art excites me. I hope it excites others and makes them want to find greater happiness in life.
