‘Dutch Sky’ The artist looking to his neighborhood. To lockdown skies without white scars. Before there was not a true sky there was to be seen. Even out in the country. Then suddenly the skies were as they should be. The skies the old dutch masters were famous for capturing. Fluffy clouds glowing in the light bouncing back off the abundant water surfaces they call Dutch Light. Clear skies and two crows with a covid facemask in the right hand corner bring us into the times. Oils on linen 40 X 50cm 2021 Artists©Shaun Herron SOLD
