Oh, the colors! The colors! THE COLORS!!! Some artists just aren't afraid to use color, and today's featured painter, Patricia Derks, is one of those ladies. I mean, neon lips? Blue and green hair? Flashes of electric pink highlighting eyebrows and cheekbones? I simply love it. Derks is a Dutch painter who I came across on my favorite art blog, The Jealous Curator, and my first thought was, Woah, you've got to have some serious guts to use those hues--and the confidence that you can pull it off. And pull it off, she does. With flying colors. [See what I did there?] Lets take a look at some of my favorite pieces by the fabulous Ms. Derks... Love. Me. Some. Boldness. If you, too, adore Patricia Derks' work, you can view more on her website.
I hope these paintings brightened your [winter] day! Nothing like a little neon to wake you up ;) Comments are closed.
