“The Colors of Hope” by David Sloane (virtual solo exhibit)

“As spring shrugs off the dark COVID winter, and Americans are getting vaccinated in record numbers, I see a glimmer of hope that normal life is gradually returning.  This recognition -- which struck me like a bolt of lightning shortly after the New Year -- prompted a frenzied effort to capture on canvas the welcome sense of hope and renewal welling up in me. The tantalizing prospect of again being able to resume the life I once took for granted (i.e., gathering with family and friends, going to the movies, or out to an art exhibit opening at Touchstone) is no longer an abstraction.  We humans are returning from the abyss -- an abyss of hopelessness, death, distrust and fear.  And that is worthy of celebration … in this case a visual celebration!”

 “Color is a power which directly influences the soul.”  Wassily Kandinsky

“Color!  What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams.” Paul Gaugin

“I found I could say things with color I couldn’t say in any other way -- things that I had no words for.” Georgia O'Keeffe

“Color is the place where our brain and the universe meet.” Paul Klee
