Vivian Springford's work inspires and encourages me in the abstract art that I create.  Sometimes when I create a piece of abstract photography, I think "am I crazy?"  Surely, I can't be the only artist who's felt that way.  I find camaraderie in Vivian's work.  Several of her pieces remind me of my image Over the Rainbow (top) (bottom: Springford untitled).

Vivian Springfield Abstract Art

One of her pieces is part of the Expansionist Series (below)...



... and that resonants with one of the new Life in Motion pieces I have at the Ann Korologos Gallery titled "Expand" (below: Extend, Expand & Express).  

             

Vivian's work is expressive, fierce and moving with subtly of color.   I think you have to be a little crazy to express life through art in the abstract.  To appreciate art in the abstract could be a step toward enlightenment.  

Vivian Springford: A Retrospective is showing now through September 3rd at the Peyton Wright gallery.
