Task 25.10 - Give Me Some Reds, Give Me Some Blues, Give Me Some... What the heck is THAT supposed to be!?1. Read a book that has a cover showing a vibrant and colourful room.
Staged to Death (Caprice De Luca Mystery #1) (2013) by Karen Rose Smith (Goodreads Author) (Paperback, 384 pages)
2. For this task, choose a painting from: Famous Abstract Art. Read a book with a title which you think would make a good name for the painting.
Coming Up for Air (1939) by George Orwell (Paperback, 278 pages)
I chose the title Coming Up for Air for the composition (Composition IV, 1911, Wassily Kadinsky) because it looks like a woman who had been lying on her back and is now in the process of sitting/standing up. (The progression is from the left lower corner to the right upper corner.) She is “Coming Up for Air”! (Task creator explicitly approved this title Here )
** Coming Up for Air is a Golden Oldie, published in 1939**

My paintings are titled after they are finished. I paint from remembered landscapes that I carry with me - and remembered feelings of them, which of course become transformed. I could certainly never mirror nature. I would more like to paint what it leaves with me.
