Yellow-green moves across the upper field in broad generous strokes. Indian yellow and orange erupt from the centre, the most densely loaded area of the canvas, applied in impasto, the paint thick enough to hold its own light. Deep navy dominates the right, heavily worked and textured. Cerulean blue moves vertically on the left. Pink sweeps through the lower field in the largest single colour mass in the lower half of any Wild painting. Darker green arrives in the lower centre, more contained than everything around it. Magenta surfaces beneath the pink. Paint splatters are visible throughout, the record of a pace fast enough to throw colour.

Every colour family is present. None of them are apologising for being there. The composition was refined through response the way all the Wild paintings were, every mark answering every other mark, the surface a record of that continuous conversation. But where other paintings in this collection hold tension between warm and cool, light and dark, suppression and emergence, this one holds no such tension. Everything is here. Everything is allowed.

The title is not a description of the painting's energy. It is an instruction.

From the Wild collection, 2025. Featured in Visual Art Journal.

From the artist:

"You are free in this world to be whoever you wish. The most beautiful choice is to be yourself."

Margaret Lipsey, b. Michigan, USA 1975, painter, poet

Margaret Lipsey is a Montreal-based contemporary abstract painter whose work operates at the intersection of emotional intelligence, energetic awareness, and visual form. Her paintings have been exhibited across North America at venues including Art Expo New York, Scope New York, Red Dot Miami, SOFA Chicago, and Art Market San Francisco and are held in private collections internationally and recognized for their ability to fundamentally shift the atmosphere of a space.

Lipsey's practice is rooted in a rare convergence of disciplines. As a Reiki Grandmaster and certified Human Design consultant, she approaches the canvas as an energetic act: each painting is built through attunement to frequency, body intelligence, and the precise translation of internal states into color, movement, and layered gesture. The result is work that continue to unfold, deepen, and resonate long after they are hung.

Lipsey's collections move through distinct emotional territories: containment, expansion, refusal, and opening. Across all bodies of work, there is a consistent commitment to presence and precision, to making the internal landscape visible without reducing it. Her paintings do not illustrate emotion. They are created through it.

For collectors, designers, and curators seeking work that holds genuine depth and transforms the environments it inhabits, Lipsey offers an ongoing inquiry into how consciousness, color, and form can meet.
