Anticipation with spring reminder 2 Painting

At the beginning of every picture is the experience of a moment, here views of the still closed flowers of wood anemones in the fresh green, surrounded by the fallen leaves of the previous year. After I had finished "Spring Awakening", I started to implement this picture idea. The sketch did not exist before or during the creative process. I have put them in front to illustrate the idea: 4 remembered glances / canvases, each showing a part of the wood anemone in one of their corners, surrounded by old leaves from the previous year. I imagined the fresh, bright green in many shades to be wonderfully bright in the surroundings of the rather dark and brown leaves of the autumn leaves from the previous year. I had already painted wood anemones and their leaves in "Spring wakening", so I started on the 1st of the 4 canvases and filled a corner. To test the color effect with the foliage, I started to paint it. But the leaves became unattractive, they looked dirty. I started again with the wood anemones in a corner of the second canvas and hoped for an idea for a successful foliage design. But it didn't come at the time, so I put both canvases aside. It emerged "Lights Forest", "Measuring Glasses", then "Anticipatory Spring Memories". In the meantime I had read "The mysterious power of colors" (Prof. Dr. Axel Buether). Among other things, he writes about synesthesia. It mainly refers to the Coupling e.g. two modalities of perception. For ynaesthesiologists, letters printed in black are colored (see Wikipedia). I'm not a synaesthetic, but I liked the idea of ​​seeing unattractive-looking last year's leaves in color. Already with "Anticipatory Spring Memories" I decided to paint the tree trunks in green and blue instead of brown or gray-brown. The color contrast to the orange foliage on the ground has been increased and the blue trunks look tall, elegant, light. In the picture idea that is now being worked on, the old leaves from the previous year should experience a more colorful autumnal design on the ground. With the thought the yellow autumn leaves of linden trees, red leaves of wine and orange leaves of maple came to mind. But why limit yourself to these colors for the respective leaf area? Leaf veins and margins could be "synathetic" in different colors and receive more contrasting interpretations in their respective colors. Pulling out the two canvases that had been left for months, I designed leaf veins and leaf borders with more color, that fit.
