If you’ve been following along my own little artistic journey, then you already know I’ve been a bit obsessed with color lately.  Color has an incredible psychological effect on mood and atmosphere and when I saw the work of Chilean born, Berlin based artist Macarena Ruiz Tagle on The Jealous Curator last week, I immediately fell in love.

 

The series, aptly titled Atmosphere is a collection of works of acrylic and watercolor on paper.  Amazing, right??  With their deep, tunnel-like darker center, we are plunged into these worlds of color.  As the hue radiates out from the middle, lightening toward the paper’s edges, the fields of color almost seem to be these moving and vibrating auras.  These are pieces it may be tempting to just pass by, but with a second look, there is so very much to see.
