Description
One morning I woke up abruptly at 3AM and "IZ" Kamakawiwo' ole's version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," is holding my mind hostage. I can't get back to sleep! I finally get up, get a piece of paper and sketch out the images floating around in my mind. I know better than to try to get back to sleep when these ideas come to seemingly out of nowhere, interrupting my good night's sleep. The images that came to me were fun and whimsical, including the main focal part of the painting - a hot air balloon. In my vision, I saw the painting as two paintings in one - one part of the painting showing the tornado sucking up houses, screen doors, beds and bicycles - into the air. The second part of the painting was the colorful hot air balloon, beautiful blue birds flying across the balloon and of course, bright red poppies covered with snow. I hope you enjoy this painting as much as I enjoyed painting it. It's nice to get a good night's sleep until the next "aha" moment holds my mind hostage until I take action to get the images out of my mind onto the paper. This painting is painted on "Red Grandis," a plantation grown sustainable hardwood that grows on roughly 75,000 acres in the deep sandy soils of the northeast region of Uruguay.
