"As I surround Venetian Red with Emerald I thrill at the illusion of scarlet.
I am mesmerized by thin Alizarin as it travels, drips, and meanders over an underpainting. Cadmium Yellow, Ultra Marine and Titanium White become conjurings of orange, purple or pink. No color is as once it was perceived.
The relationship of one to another becomes as astonishing as life itself."
--Molly Wullstein Van Austen
See another of Molly's paintings, "Fear," that I have companioned with one of my poems called "Guilt" in the section of my site called Teen Screams. A link is below.
