Aubergine Paintings, 2010

About the Color Aubergine

The color aubergine embodies a sense of secrecy and spirituality. It can be calming and uplifting and it is often associated with pride and promise. Leonardo DaVinci believed that the power of meditation increases ten times in aubergine light. In stained glass, the color aubergine is seen as unifying and symbolizes justice and royalty. In fragrances the various shades of aubergine blooms are known to be balancing, soothing, gently clarifying and often normalizing.

This collection of paintings has been inspired by aubergine and its variations, as well as colors that may be a compliment or perhaps a contrast.
