Music and art

Ronnie wood, Rolling Stone musician and artist says that “Music is art and art is music on paper”.

I think that is an interesting idea. When composing a painting I am always aware of seeking for the harmony in the chosen colours, shapes and textures. As in music, repetition in art, of shapes and colours, gives a pleasing rhythm to the piece. The varied textures conveyed are like different instruments and the soft and”loud” passages of paint give it it’s mood.
