Colors are an integral element in art.

  • decorating

Selection and displaying of your individual art choices can depend a lot on your reactions to their colors. You may also want to select art because of the reactions that colors can invoke in individuals. It can make a statement about who you are, who you want to be, or who you want others to think of you. It can create a mood or a feeling.

The study of colors, color therapy, or psychological effects of color is not exact sciences, and there isn’t a lot of data beyond antidote stories to support the theories. But, as individuals, we know that some colors attract us and others leave us cold. We buy certain colors in our clothes and possessions because we feel our best in them. Whether there is any hard and fast proof, as human beings, we know that color invokes a emotional reaction.

Colors provide reactions through a combination of biological, psychological, physiological, and cultural or societal factors. Colors can effect thinking and cause reactions because of perceptions that become attached to it through cultural influences. White is considered the color for weddings in our culture and symbolizes purity and virtue. In other cultures it symbolizes death and is worn at funerals.

Colors can sway thinking, change actions, and cause reactions in us that we may not even realize. A person can unknowingly attach a perception based on color. So yes, color is important. It is important to understand what colors mean and how you perceive them as you make choices.

Imperfectly Human

Mixed media pieces are done by hand in the studio by the artist. Jeri strongly believes that humanity in art is important and that working with acrylic resin can remove the human element.  Resin looks like glass and can be flawless, but Jeri feels this gives it a mechanical, manufactured feel.  She likes to get her hands into the resin and create bubbles and use specially developed textured treatments which give her art the "imperfections" which are perfectly human.

As an example, detail of textured resin around one of the fish in "Fishy".
