This is a painting from the Genevieve Leavold's Yielding collection - Paintings exploring the idea of softness as strength - Taking inspiration from the Taoist Philosophy "The softest thing can overcome the hardest" Lao Tsu These paintings take forms from smoke, fire, water and air - and have the artists characteristic gestural brushwork. Daydream is a bright bold piece inspired by summer days, flowers and the feeling of being carried away by your imagination. There is a harmonious balance between the paired-back palette and the complex flowing forms. The artist took inspiration from the forms of flowers or blossom in water as well as the philosophical ideas though we identify with our thoughts we are also the observer of them. Genevieve Leavold paints in layers, building the forms up over and around each other, each layer responds to the one beneath and the brushstrokes are soft and spontaneous.
