Behind the Black
is a fearless venture into the darkest corners of a creative mind in search of light.
Have you ever wondered what an artist is thinking when they create a work of art? What music whispers through the trees in the background…?









Behind the Black
is the true story of an artist and her struggle to look deep into the lost chronicles of the human spirit to search for what drives us most. From finding
her way out of a darkly destructive alcohol addiction to the search for a soul mate, Colleen holds nothing back-baring her soul and utter truth to the
core, conveying an artist's view of creativity and its very source, down to the elements that make up the world we live in.




On the road to becoming a professional artist, Colleen almost lost her studio and home after an ill-fated business deal with a couple of big bad wolves.
Yet she survived to tell the tale, traveling the world on a block of ice, slaying dragons and kissing frogs. Behind the Black is filled with
intriguing true-life characters as a lifetime of experiences magically transform into works of art, all explained in intimate detail.




"We are the artists of our own worlds, but everyone has a paintbrush, and the canvas is left to unfold and transform…," writes the author.








Behind the Black

leads you to see through the darkness in a land where you'll confront your own dragons and find miracles. Pay no attention to big bad wolves, and listen
closely to little burnt marshmallow-looking minions, for it is always what lies within that matters most.

Colleen Black is a world-renowned artist represented by galleries throughout the US and in a very literal sense "overseas"- Various Caribbean and International cruise lines are some of the most recent purveyors of her artistic endeavors. She studied painting in Italy at the Florence School of Art and is self-taught in various methods of sculpture.
