open skies
Medium: Mixed media (acrylic, gouache) on raw canvas
Dimensions: 8 X 8
West Texas has big, open, wide skies that amaze me. It feels like the sky is going to swallow me up in one gulp every time I look up. There are generally no clouds, but when there are, it’s because a big storm is coming, and they’re huge and fluffy. My favorite part of this painting is the iridescent cloud in the top corner. This painting is acrylic with a high gloss varnish on textured canvas. (The thick canvas means it measures slightly larger than 8x8, so it would need a custom gallery frame.)
Accompanying Poem:
OPEN SKIES
the heavens yawn open
in a lazy welcome
: you’ve arrived :
at the place you said you’d never return to
but the sun is still warm, so warm
the flowers look up and smile
and it’s enough for now
to imagine you can do the same
Additional Details:
Archival varnish
Comes with Certificate of Authenticity
Signed on front and back
This painting does not come framed
