Be Happy

"Be Happy" by Amanza Smith is a work teeming with a blend of colors and forms that evoke a sense of controlled chaos. The background is a blend of blues and grays, overlaid with bursts of white, pink, and blue brushstrokes that create a sense of movement and depth. Prominent throughout the canvas are vertical drips and scattered splashes in colors ranging from deep purple to bright yellow, suggesting rain or cascading light. The pages included in the work are derived from the artist's own writing which she titled "On Being Happy".
