"... soon / the sky grows / under the grass / your dreams fall / into nowhere ..."

Exploring the theme of lawns, the shadows cast by turf were projected onto painted surfaces. White oil paint was applied directly to the surface with a voluminous brush to create the remaining light areas. After drying, acrylic paint was used for glazing. The areas covered with oil paint allowed the water-based glaze to drip off, creating an effect through the painted surface.
