CLOUD DANCE captures the perspective of looking skyward from beneath a canopy of trees, an exploration of constancy and change: while the framework of the branches stays the same, the seasons, the birds, and the clouds are always evolving.
What inspired this series? Nature’s ever-changing rhythm, I guess... and an experience I am sure we have all had, lying on your back, looking straight up, watching the clouds drift by like cotton. You know.

Like when you were a kid, falling into a pile of raked leaves and laying there, looking through the canopy, branches receding like bony fingers, reaching, dotted with green and yellow, or the deep crimson of red maple trees.

Or like when you were a kid, like you still are a kid, having made a snow angel in new fallen powder, suspended between the frozen white and blue heaven, the only thing to mark time the movement of the pearly clouds against Vermeer blue, the same blue of the head scarf she wore with that borrowed white pearl ear ring.

These paintings have no top or bottom, no right side, no left side. I wanted these pieces to feel as fluid as the sky itself, so I’ve designed them without a fixed orientation. The view is looking up, which is omni-directional. The experience itself defines left and right.

Change it - weekly, daily, one way for morning and turn it 90 degrees for afternoon. Whatever the observer would like -- the observer, the collector, the art lover, can have. Four wires on the back so you can hang the painting in any direction that speaks to you, the artwork can change with your space.

There’s no "top" or "bottom" in the sky, so why should there be on your wall?
CLOUD DANCE - Flip it, turn it, love it.
