Art & Artists
Luther Broome
My first memory is of color. Red, yellow, and blue later became known as the buttons on a ceramic clown cookie jar. While growing up in southern California, I was exposed to vibrant colorful Latino Art, sixties psychedelia, and pop culture imagery. When attending Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles, CA, where I received my MFA, color dictated my painting thesis.
The alchemy of color continues to direct my work. Light and hue become a metaphorical current to express emotion and content.
