Borzoi Blue

This borzoi was painted in 2014, it was inspired by dutch delft blue patterns, and it incorporates wifi, bluetooth, and other smart phone symbols. At the time of painting this I had recently returned home to Australia, and been given my first hand-me-down iPhone. I created a series around the patterns, to me they symbolised connection to loved ones across the globe. When you live overseas for any amount of time you realise how important connection is, and how good it is to be able to talk to your loved ones. Due to its age and how far it has travelled, this painting has a bit of wear on the corners, but it hasn't affected the painting. Please see photos and feel free to email me for more!
