The War Within a Rainbow

In art,there is beauty. As vibrant images are lifted from the depths of the canvas and shown to the world, they bring forth emotions that live in the depths of our souls. Colors shine, dim, brighten, darken, show, and hide in the canvas as living beings. They live in that world and speak to us from it's hidden depths. Their tones, though graceful and elegant, are strong and serious. For in that white world, colors fight for supremacy. It is not just the image that attracts the creatures, it is the meaning behind them. As each color fights for supremacy, a meaning is created that makes the painting unique. Artist try to find the right amount of reds, blues, and yellows to begin combat for dominance and create a great story within the canvas. Passionate red is pit against calm blues as yellow watches and eggs them on. The canvas, at first white with new beginnings  is blackened with the stains of color war. Let them stimulate the mind as they are seen on the white canvas.
