Blue Sky Painting by Cedar Lee
This dramatic large-scale art piece, at 24″ x 48″, creates a “wow factor,” completely elevating and transforming any room. In this painting of a bright blue sky, fluffy white clouds are billowing across the canvas. This painting is healing and peaceful, serving as a reminder to appreciate the present moment and the beauty of life.
Here is a time lapse video of the creation of this painting!
I have always loved this quote:
The only constant in life is change. –Heraclitus
This is a painting filled with a sense of movement, fluffy white clouds billowing across the brilliant blue of the open sky above us.
It looks like the clouds are shifting before our eyes into new shapes, almost-recognizable as objects: an animal? a face? a country on a map?…before morphing and spreading out into another configuration of water vapor and light.
The beautiful trees stand sentry around the edges of this open clearing. As their branches reach high up into the sky and are kissed by sunlight, it’s easy to imagine the cold wind flowing in the atmosphere up there, pulling wisps of clouds along in its currents.
This nature scene is fresh, open, and happy.
Just like in this painting, the winds are shifting up high in the sky, the sun is shining, the trees are swaying all over our beautiful Earth.
Even in the most dire crisis, the world keeps turning and life goes on. Nature is still beautiful.
We can take comfort in the fact that no matter the current struggle, it will be temporary. Everything in life is ephemeral. There are no exceptions. All we have is this moment.
Sometimes our own mortality and circumstances outside our control feel overwhelming. But it’s nonetheless wonderful to be alive. Looking up at a big blue sky full of shifting clouds can help us appreciate it all.
