Durham Dreamer for the month of May: Mary Ann Black
Her dream for Durham: "...to see Durham become one of the healthiest cities in the world. I define healthy as in the three aspects: physically, financially and spiritually I also desire to see Durham as a thriving city that loves, cherishes and fully embraces itself in all of it's diversity."
Mary Ann, in requesting her desired color pallet for her "Dream Portrait" selected "all shades of blues" along with "jewel tones". In filling my brushes with these rich hues, I was reminded of the long love affair I've had with color. My earliest infatuation started with the first giant sized box of Crayola crayons. To young eyes, the standing rows of colorful soldiers awaiting my command filled my head with dreams of another world. Azure, Cornflower, Cerulean held me captive under their power for hours. Below hues of blue colors I'm using for this third "Durham Dreams" portrait.
