Committed to Black

Black transcends wardrobe. It gives space structure.

In my quiet months after having quit BDO, I took an Impressionist class at the UC Extension. Of all the pieces of art that flashed via the projector, I remember feeling an affinity for Manet's art. The man didn't want to be linked to the Impressionist Movement - didn't want to be labeled. His subject matter was very modern in the sense that it was did not mimic 'academic art' and was very representative of modern life. I would like to buy a big print of Manet's "Execution of Emperor Maximillian of Mexico" which is reminiscent of Goya's "The 3rd of May 1808". I love Manet's prevalent use of black.

I found the below picture of Master of Design Student Abbey Nova's home via Design Sponge. I dig the high gloss black door. In a sun lit room - it reflects a myriad of colors!
