It’s the moments when the world falls away, and all that is left is our own consciousness, the sound of our breaths rattling in our chests… All that is left is our own perception of ourselves, uncoloured, unrecognisable, unchangeable.
It’s the moment when we can just close our eyes and just. Breathe.

Inspired by Philip Guston’s “Zone” paintings.

Room To Breathe belongs to the following groups:

Complex Simplicity of Art and Abstract Art

    Great painting! Fantastic depth created with the layers. Visually very stimulating because of the various forms – lovely smoky-looking areas interlaced with definite brush marks that really “lift” the work and make it so much stronger. It’s like drifting through one’s mind in meditation, with the occasional deliberate thought hitting the surface.

    Great to discover this on the home page. Guston is great… same quality of paint in the structures that take form. I like the misty clouds and the combination of painting elements to bring together a difficult concept. Well done.
