About this artwork

With this on-going pandemic continuing to bring us all down, I wanted to paint something that was totally uplifting. So I chose a leaping ballerina, soaring above a field of sunflowers. She's holding two sunflowers in her hands, raised in celebration of a beautiful Spring day. Though not my normal surrealistic approach, there is still a hint of surrealism as she's probably about 15 feet in the air meaning she either has enormous power or I'm simply… using her as a metaphor for all of us to rise above.

« I love to paint the impossible, or at least the highly improbable. I want my work to make you think, if it brings a smile to your face, that's even better. »

Tom Blood is an award-winning American artist whose paintings have been exhibited in the United States. Inspired by surrealism, especially by the works of René Magritte, many of his paintings have featured a man in a bowler hat, which is part of his on-going homage to the Belgian master. Blood enjoys painting "what seemed like it couldn't be, only it looked like it actually was".
