  • Interview with Gamma Jeanne: I Love Blue
    May 14 2024

    Interview with Gamma Jeanne; a departure from our more in-depth discussions of color theory. Jeanne's career as an artist spans over nine decades and includes working with acrylic paints in the 1940s and being at the center of department store design in the 1950s. Our conversation is wide-ranging as it addresses an artist's inner drive to create and form connections with people.

So interesting!

Great discussions about how we perceive colour and art. I’m really enjoying each episode - I’m an Art and Media teacher in Australia.
