I see colors when listening to music, especially orchestral and choral music. After receiving an arts grant to go to Norway and study Edvard Grieg’s life, music and environment in 2018, I returned to created an exhibit interpreting his music with paint.
Open Edition Prints of the original acrylic painting are available on different papers and sizes. See the drop-down menu under Medium for paper choices. Add matts and frames under the drop-down menu Styles. For Limited Edition Fine Art Prints, click on the tab above. They are signed & numbered and printed on canvas.
When listening to music as a meditation with friends, I asked them, when we opened our eyes, "What did you see?" I looked around at blank faces. "You didn't see stuff?" I asked. That's when I figured out that I might have something unique going on. I see color and movement, sometimes texture, when listening to music. Certain notes and chords bring forth a certain color(s) in my mind. When interpreting music with paint, I close my eyes and listen, paying attention to the colors I see as the music progresses. If there are lyrics, that also influences where I go in my abstract expressionism. I have now had five collaborations/commissions interpreting the music of Bach, Grieg, Pårt and Buxtehude.
