Sky in ladder smSky Black is an oil painter and muralist. His work has exhibited in large-scale competitions, appeared on the covers of magazines, shown around the country, and has been collected internationally. His art explores the unexpected. He employs technical painting skills when constructing subjects and scenery while paying attention to narrative and fine detail. Sky’s inspiration comes from crashing waves, unlikely events, mysteries, clouds, love, animals, the sea, good lighting, good humor, good views, and of course birds and music. His style is unique in the way he juxtaposes romantically and classically influenced themes with contemporary situations and characters. His paintings create a trail for the imagination to wander. skyblackart.com

    I have just come across these paintings in oil by Sky Black and I love these pieces I have seen, deeply rooted in the soil between Goya and Dali. These are “A Wakesm”, “Leaving”, “My Beautiful Friend”, “Say Yes”, “Sir Sympathy”, “Olympus”, and “The Offering”. These are surrealism of hard riddles and puzzles. Each of these is a cloud of stories from the folklore or mythology with a hard realities of contemporary life.

    Very unclassified prolepsis is “The Offering”. That presents combative combustion. “Sir Sympathy” is very comic. It follows the philosophy of accentuated metaphor for two-sided nature. Is this world haunted by the shadow of their indifferences? They represent an orgiastic Enlightenment. “Say Yes” is an inventory of everyday life that illustrates the nightmare of a day, the cerebral gravity of commitment. However, is the figure in the scene taken aback by one’s rudeness? “My Beautiful Friend” and ” Olympus” are colossal in debts. Those histories we cannot leave behind the wall. The fabrics of these pieces are very completed.

    Mikhail Romm (1901 – 1971), that outstanding Soviet film director, who created a number of cinematic masterpieces, marked in his “Reflecting On Myself” that “art should study man in his critical moments, in ‘borderline situations’, and that real art always sprang from a clash between the tragic and the ridiculous.” This is exactly where Black’s paintings are. Black has devoted himself without fear to explore and expose the dark sides of life. These are fulfilling plan of interests.

On Hanging a Stocking at Christmas by Charles S. Brooks

On Hanging a Stocking at Christmas (1920)  by Charles S. Brooks As Christmas is, above all, a holiday for children, it is proper in its season to consider with what regard they hold its celebration.
