The artist wrote, “Most of the Cadmium colors here are just as they appear straight out of the tube, and using them in their full values and full saturation gave me the impact of extravagant color I wanted. All of this, along with the dance of the high key white flowers was risk taking, but made this an intriguing and powerful painting.”
