- I'm a painter (and writer and Spanish instructor) living in beautiful Boulder, Colorado. I studied classical art in an ARC (Art Renewal Center) school, Colorado Academy of Art, full-time for two years, in order to benefit from the rigorous atelier-style training. I am currently dedicated to exploring abstract and semi-abstract art, working in oil and also in soft pastel. I firmly believe that all human beings are creative, whether or not they have yet found an outlet for the innate creative urge, and that the creative arts are the highest form of human expression.

Jala, beautifully touching and personal subject... i love the pose of both the man and woman: they are both in harmony.... yet the colours are shouting out to the world... interesting that should be so. r.
I love coming over here and seeing that you're always switching things up, pushing, extending. It always inspires me.
But the snow?! oh man, that's coming my way isn't it!
Jala, Looks like the cats are the subject matter for "The Dance."
In the many months of visiting your blog, I think this is the very first time I've seen the human figure.
Why'd you keep us waiting so long!
What really strikes me aside from the subject is the halo of blues around the arms and hands.
Love the color triad also.
I can't believe that's little Lynx who is as big as Miss Lemon and still as beckoning with that extended paw.
Where's the little white waif?
Just beautiful. I love the colors, the graphic quality, intimacy. And I always look forward to seeing the kitties!
The salad dressing isn't really a good story, more like mildly interesting. The client wanted it done for Ken or whatever his name might be, the man who started it all. Italian was the first flavor they marketed from the restaurant.
Snow??? Wow! Our leaves are still green!
This is really nice... those dancers are lit from within! Seriously, those colors are just alive.
I, too want to know where the little white kitty is - Rumi? Probably not big enough to see out the door, or just in his other world, I suppose.
Beauty in simplifying. Nice. That red in the woman's dress vibrates!
a wonderful pastel. Dramatic color decisions make this sing. If you'd enjoy it, I'd love to see more figurative work by you.
Beautiful color and wonderful mood, it feels both intimate and intense at the same time. Great work, Jala!
