Allow me to introduce my new painting titled “STRONG WIND.” This artwork portrays boys comfortably seated in boats made from newspapers, fully absorbed in their reading material while navigating through a gusty breeze. It’s a scene that combines whimsy and adventure.
In this piece, I ventured into the technique of collage, using torn pieces of newspaper to create a textured effect on the canvas. It was an exhilarating experience! It harkens back to the era when newspapers held a significant presence in our lives, becoming not only sources of information but also versatile materials for artistic expression.
“STRONG WIND” invites viewers to embrace the humor and imaginative spirit it embodies. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of the times when newspapers were integral to our daily routines, offering a wealth of stories and knowledge.
However, it’s important to note that while the image of boys sailing in newspaper boats sparks curiosity and wonder, I would not recommend venturing out on actual watercraft made of newspapers. It’s purely a whimsical representation within the artwork and not a practical suggestion.
So, let’s embark on a whimsical journey through “STRONG WIND,” where the winds of creativity and nostalgia merge, and where the boats made of newspaper transport us to a world of imagination and joy.
