Whoa. Big skies and cotton candy clouds… perfect for a Monday. These oil paintings are the gorgeous work of Canadian painter Ian Fisher. You can find Ian’s available work through Gallery Elle (Zurich & St Moritz), and follow him on Instagram at @cloudoncloudlove.
Ooof, ugly surprises are not always a welcome event… unless you think about them like this! I found this quote from American artist Helen Frankenthaler {1928-2011} over the weekend, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. I was feeling very stuck with a few of my current collages — for fear of ‘making a mistake’ — but what’s the worst that can happen, right? Bring on the ugly surprises!
Happy Monday ~ Danielle
Oh I needed that quote today!!! And I came across Ian’s work awhile back while doing research on cloud/sky art and so nice to be reminded of it here. Those orange and pink ones 😍
This was a wonderful read and a v timely reminder. I recently went for an urban sketcher meet, my first time, and I was v hesitant to make mistakes while sketching real time, but I am going to recall this painting every time the fear of ugly surprises enter my mind. Thanks again :)
