Karoo Sky and Windmill 1

Karoo Sky and Windmill 1, by Cath Duncan. 2014. Magazine paper cuttings on hardboard

Description

The Paper Skies Collection is all about one of my favourite things… skies! Skies are the backdrop to, and therefore the context of, our lives. As such, skies set the mood and invite us into very different activities and ways of being outdoors, and even indoors, to a lesser extent. I especially love a good, moody sky, with interesting cloud shapes and colours.

All of the artworks in the Paper Skies are created using one of my favourite mediums: recycled magazine paper, which I cut, layer, and glaze to create big, vibrant, skies with contrasting light and texture, and a sense of movement.

Karoo sky and windmill 1 features a South African Karoo semi-desert farm landscape with a nostalgic windmill water pump and big, moody sky that’s alive with the promise of rain.
