Steve Breighner: Paintings

Clouds

On exhibit at Central Library, August – September 2017

Painting of white clouds on a blue sky

Artist Statement:

Clouds are like dreams, like mountains that exist for a short time.

Never really, as they constantly change a mountain that existed; as a possibility they have a similar shape, the same face and feel as a mountain.

The sun must have contributed to my thinking.

As on a sunny day where thoughts drift.

At the airport there’s a similar feeling, since you’re up in the clouds flying around, who really knows where you are.

There aren’t streets up there.

Want to buy something you see on our walls? Artists contribute 20% of sales made during their exhibit to the Friends of the Arlington County Public Library, to help support Library programming.
