Catching clouds (catching fireflies in the daytime): cotton candy balls of sparkling patterns of air are caught up in the sky, floating and soaring, being spun by the wind. I looked up at them, shielding my eyes through the windows, sheltered by vases of flowers, catching their fairy reflections in the flower-water.

Sunlight shines softly through the clouds, casting shadows of my window blinds and the flowers in the windowsill. They add a shimmery layer on top of this open window, this steaming, breathing, fresh-baked loaf of a painting, open and reaching with its canvas weave and brushstrokes, attempting to grasp out at the sky or- open out to it? It is the shape of a window, and it holds an invitation to enter another world in the same way that a window does. I can step through it with my eyes and lie down and daydream in it in the same way that I would with a window. But it is not a window, just like Magritte’s pipe was not a pipe. So the sun-shadows of the window blinds and flowers become the hints that break the illusion, the ephemeral travelers that go where I cannot.

Here’s where this idea/obsession began! I left my canvas on my easel in front of the window one night and when I woke up in the morning, the sun was streaming through it, creating this beautiful painting. I had to try and record it the next morning I had off. If you scrolled all the way to the bottom of this page, thank you for looking through the entire journey so far. You can see more of it on my Instagram. If you are interested in buying a painting or a print, you can do so by emailing klaasannieo@gmail.com (unless that painting is being shown at a gallery, in which case, their contact information will be under the painting’s photo. I encourage you to reach out to them for the purchase.
