"The Summer Love Affair Series was evoked by my response to the power of light and especially the brightness of the summer sun and the warm light that becomes a part of every shape. I also wanted to show the power of line; how the shapes become a calligraphy. I selected pure colors, bright yellows, warm yellows and aqua marine blues to show the power of the sun."
