Colour and Balance

Artist: Ruth Van Egmond
Victoria, B.C.

Art works of the 

great or humble, 

adult or child arise 

from an inside 

space that no one 

can see even after 

colours dry on 

canvas or paper. 

Whether oil, acrylic, 

water colour or crayon, 

vision made real and

whole in brush strokes 

or bold stars and curves ~

art works to be cherished 

and hung on an office wall 

above a row of chairs

or mom’s refrigerator amid 

a collection of fridge magnets. 

Colour and balance lives.

“In art, the hand can never execute anything 

higher than the heart can imagine.”

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
