ABOUT THE PAINTING:
SKY IN MOTION: Acrylic on canvas, 5 x 4 FT.
I'd venture to say the most photographed natural wonder is the sky. It evokes vivid dreams, grand adventures, heartfelt wishes, visions of ancestors, heroic gods and ancient goddesses, harkens the change of seasons, brings omens of good fortunes and darkest nightmares, mathematically perfect and chaotically ever-changing. This piece strives to express all those wonderful evocations in its study of blues. Circles of swirling galaxies orbit throughout the space. The fire of a vibrant star stands stark, guiding the eye as the polar north should.
The concept of this piece evolved through time, but started with that North Star. It’s a stencil designed from one of my mother’s doilies, which she used to line dessert trays for our family Christmas parties. It was only appropriate that a painting on a little larger scale should start with that detail, metaphorically and literally anchoring the sky motif. The rest of the piece, the seasons of blue, was built around the talisman from my mother, because that is the cycle of life, being birthed from our mothers.
From our beginnings, each hour in a day, each season that passes, the sky has its color and purpose. It forecasts the weather. It gives farmers a guide for their crops. This firmament and its beacons lend direction to lost souls and keep the course for sailors on the open seas. We look to it for loved ones, now gone, watching over us from somewhere unknown. We find comfort knowing those who are still with us aren’t so far away as long as we are all under that same beautiful canopy. This piece emulates all those purposeful moments in a stop-motion visual vocabulary. So many shades of life are in the sky… what do you see when you look up?
