| The Lantern by Penney Hughes 2013 |
This small painting (22.8 x 15.1cm, 9 x 6in), painted for a swap on Swap-bot is directly inspired by the work of
Remedios Varo. In this painting figures break through the layers of a living wall. What you can not see is the slight metallic sheen peeking through the paint. Many of Remedios paintings feature persons breeching a many layered openings. Her style is considered mystical surreal. I love the delicacy of the textures in her work and the mysterious, dream-like quality.
