There is SO much that I love about this piece that I hardly know where to begin. The overall spirit of this is highflying fun, conveyed so expertly with the expression and gesture of the figure, and the shapes that reach to the sky as well. The cool vivid blues and blue-green, against the white jagged shape, create a feeling of coolness and beauty. I think I love the shapes within this piece most of all! The repetition of the u shapes in the background and also in the person provide harmony to the composition, with the jaggedly shapes providing subtle difference that adds interest. The person provides a spirited focal point by virtue of the contrasting warm colors and delightful happy expression and the star on the shirt, while the stylized rendering is in keeping with the rest of the painting. The text at the bottom provides the story, which is additive, though I would love this painting even without this as it tells a story on it's own. This artwork is amazing!!
