What does Blue, Green, Blue show?
In Blue, Green, Blue the edges of the colour fields are not sharp but blend softly into one another, so the colour seems to breathe and change slowly before your eyes. Rothko built his paintings from thin, translucent layers of paint laid one over another, and he wanted them seen from close up, so that the colour surrounds you. Blue, Green, Blue feels calm, almost meditative, like looking into deep water.
How is our hand-painted study of Blue, Green, Blue made?
