Art: Canvases

These are all original canvasses sparked by this quote, I read scrawled on the loo wall at the Sydney Airport in Febrauary 2012.....  

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

Rabindranath Tagore  

Obviously the writer didn't use any reference, with some surprise I discovered it was the work of the first non-English speaking Nobel Laurette Winner in 1913. Hollow Daydream is probably the piece most indicative of this inspirational quote. All of the pieces are textural which should allure the new owner to stroke the piece occassionally each piece is gesso primed, then a mixture of acrylic and oil paint, posca pens, washes and some secret mark making items.
