About The Artwork
I was inspired to make this painting by a visit to Kew Palace in London, the former home of King George III and his family. The upstairs rooms had fallen into complete disrepair, and I was enchanted by the possibility of creating a series of narrative paintings featuring my then current muse, a mannequin head. In this scene, the mannequin head is positioned on the floor, where she is apparently watching the shadows of hot air balloons on the light-pierced blind. I hope the viewer will feel the sense of longing implied by the positioning of the head in the ray of light that falls also on the slightly opened wardrobe and the aged wood floor. The painting continues down the sides of the canvas, so it may be hung as-is by the hanger on the back, or it may be framed.
