Blue Dog Print

Helen studied art (BA Hons) at University of Sheffield during the 1980’s, followed by a degree in Psychology (BSc Hons). Helen has studied and researched how colour can affect our moods, well-being, behaviours, recall and perceptions. Helen paints primarily in oils on canvas. “my paintings are always focussed on colour and how the colour or colour combinations affect my mood. I want my mood to be stimulated by the colour more than anything..” My life, it was bleak before, But now there are colours galore. You’ve brightened up my world – New colours you’ve unfurled. New colours came to play And brightened up my day. By bright colours, I am wooed: They brighten up my mood. Blacks and greys and whites, Can make a striking sight, But they’re colours of the night – For me, they are too polite. You’ve turned my world around: New colours I have found. Bright colours, I can see, And all those in-between. You’ve shown me different shades – Added colour to my days. My old life, I so hated, But, a new world, you’ve created. I know that without you, I’d have a different view. To my life, you’ve added spice, And it’s really rather nice. You’ve shown me brand new paths; You’ve made me smile and laugh. I’m no longer feeling blue, And it is all because of you. by, Angela Wybrow
