Fabulous Agatha

What does it take to be a good colorist? This is a question for professional artists to answer, but I will try: I think that it is understanding color so well that you can push it to the limits and still come out on top.

Case in point: Agatha Ruiz de la Prada, Spain’s queen of pop art and design and a hurricane of a creative force. Her collections literally pop with primary colors and their combinations. Below is a sampling of bags and other accessories from her FW13-14 collection as seen (for a short time) on the Spanish vente-privee website (see a post about vente-privee here).

You can tell a great artist by the way their art can change you. I don’t think that it’s possible to own something by Agatha Ruiz de la Prada and not have it  influence you. For the better, of course. Such is the power of art.
