Carol Schinkel

Artist Statement

I love color.  I paint to play with color.  Color is emotion. The other elements are interesting and essential but color is the thing.  Listen to what a few others have had to say about color.

The last mad throb of red just as it turns green; the ultimate shriek of orange calling all the blues of heaven for relief and support…
[on Georgia O'Keeffe](Charles Demuth)

Man needs colour to live; it's just as necessary an element as fire and water. 
(Fernand Leger)

A certain blue enters your soul. A certain red has an effect on your blood-pressure. 
(Henri Matisse)
