Faces of the Peace
Darlene Dautel, "Blank Canvas"
10.5" x 21.5", Water Colour on Paper, CAN$750.00 - Sold
Like a frozen "etch a sketch", frosty school bus windows entertain countless children. It always starts with little peep holes, just big enough for a glimpse at the outside world. Then slowly as the bus bumps along the road, pictures emerge, loves are professed, secrets written, profanities practiced. All of which can be magically erased by the touch of a warm hand. Even better, if it is really cold, layers of new frost can be laid down with a few quick breathes, providing a slightly skewed blank canvas. Each art work starts a new.
