Settle into in a cozy, urban room and gaze out onto an urban landscape. Drift into a world of inspiration, discovery, and play. Multiple planes shift the eye between subject and object while merging the internal and external and introducing the real and the imagined. Beloved Leo (an unexpected, curious cat) sits on a roof just beyond the window while nonchalantly watching the watcher. Leonardo da Vinci, the master artist, engineer and scientist, looks onward as past, present, and future unite. This original oil painting was inspired by the Fauvists, a group of early twentieth-century artists known for their use of non-naturalistic colors that often imbue energy and adventure.
