I have recently begun a series of drawings I am calling, in my head, Color Theory School Dropout 😊those of you who know me + my work, know my favorite color is grey, or maybe black. I honestly do not like color all that much. It's too strident. In an attempt to try to overcome this aversion to color, I've decided to force myself to draw occasionally with lots of my colorful colored pencils. For this challenge, I'm also adopting the John Cage belief that there is no hierarchy of goodness or correctness in musical sounds + tones, physical movements or colors. so I'm randomly combining colors to see if green goes with purple as nicely as it goes with yellow. Wish me luck in this endeavor. I actually find it to be a bit terrifying. ... colored pencil, chalk + graphite on paper ... .. . . . . . #drawingexperiment #colorscaresme #playingwithcolors #outofmycomfortzone #patriciabender #contemporarydrawing #geometricforms #geometricabstraction #monolith #architecturaldrawing #neverstoplearning https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb-I4o0OsW6/?utm_medium=tumblr
