Can Simplicity be Enough?

I look at art work every second of my existence !  I marvel in others visions, talents, expressions and mediums.  I delight in their journey and wonder how i can get "that" in my work and journey!...i study the masters, read, practice and practice....then i get hit with the wonderment and spontaneous simplicity of art by children.  Ages 3 and up...but mostly art from the 3 and 5 year old and their easy and simple views of life and imagination!..There is no drama and second guess of placement or color choice..it is what it is.  Awh the beauty in this so simple statement of color and shape..drawing me in closer and closer to my connection to my child and wonderment of it all!  Can I, my art be achieved with simplicity?  Does there have to be such drama?  Can art be successful in simplicity?  Do we have to have a level of intellectualism to gather success in a painting?  Can it truly be achieved w/ the simple thoughts of our inner child?...Can the drama be the simplicity? Can it? Is it enough?

Live Life in COLOR!
