Morning Glory 1990

They say the pen is mightier than the Sword, but what about a 5-year-old child? This is possibly the oldest image in our collection. It was “painted” at a time when we had 3 small children in our household. Cynthia chose to use a very common item as her instrument, the lowly Ball Point Pen, or as our European friends might call it, a Biro. This is one of several images Cynthia painted in this method, Pointillism with Biro on Paper, and it is absolutely beautiful. The detail achieved by painstakingly placing each individual dot is just amazing even hypnotizing. It would be a wonderful addition to any art collection!
