Shimmer: Raymond Haywood: Dream Oeste

36 x 36 x 2 "

Acrylic paint on wood panel

Dream Oeste was an accident with intention. Unearthing hidden emotions in depictions of water. The layered bubblegum strokes are reminiscent of oceanic pleasures. The dark blue drips insinuate the foreboding of deep waters. 

Water is my symbol, aesthetic, and satisfaction. Dream Oeste captures a memory of warm waters, deep and mysterious but playful in their accessibility.
