The story of creation is the story of color . The story of color is the story of emotion . Before there words , there was color . Colors so powerful that they caused a vocal reaction -Raw , throaty vowels , salacious sibilants , Resonant consonants , aerated breath . Color gave birth to sound . When music can no longer be contained , it breaks into movement and dance .
Linda Stelling ’ s Alchemy series paintings dance across the canvas . Like it or not , we are bathed in intense and joyous bursts of primal chromatic explosions . Her colors pour onto the canvas and off the canvas , bouncing around the room like beams of light .
Her liquid layers are studies in juxtaposition as much as in gradation of tone . Just like in life , just like in love , things that should not make sense , do . Colors that should not fit together , unfold in perfect harmony . They defy psychological narrative . They simply are filled with the one thing that theory cannot provide – the very vibrancy of life .
