Regarde le Ciel
Oil on canvas. 50x70cm, 2025
This painting was part of ‘Seeing/Remembering/Painting’, a group exhibition at Gallery One, Mitcham, SA, in 2025.
Creamy splotches of white splatter the bright sky
Slowly they pool at the bottom of deep atmospheric gullies
Over time they form into soft, pale clay
They get worked and played with by unknown hands
Someone? Something?
The wind and the messages it carries?
Perhaps how the grass is looking?
Or the song and dance of the people below?
In the sky, shapes of white
A dog. A cat.
A Time. A place
An invitation you can’t deny.
