First Dream, First Sale

Image
  In Japan the first dreams of the New Year, hatsu-yume 初夢, traditionally provide markers for the dreamer's upcoming year. In that spirit, perhaps the first artwork sold in a new year provides inspiration for the months to come. My painting Monk Station is the first sale of 2022.   I was honored that Saatchi Art included an artwork of mine in their new Seeds of Optimism collection. "Manifest a happy and bright new year with a joyous artwork by one of our top artists from around the globe."

As 2021 Shifts to 2022

 by Gregg Chadwick Gregg Chadwick Wings of Desire 30"x24"oil on linen 2019 Theresa Brown Collection, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania As 2021 shifts to 2022, I think of years passing like film titles shifting on theater marquees. With that thought, on the day we lost Betty White at 99, I am posting my painting "Wings of Desire". In the spirit of writers Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Salman Rushdie, a bit of magical realism often finds its way into my paintings. In memory of Bruno Ganz and in homage to one of my favorite films by Wim Wenders, my oil on linen painting "Wings of Desire" depicts one of my favorite angels hovering by the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica. Deep thanks  @theresabrownrn2021  for loving the film and my painting so much that you had to purchase it! Happy New Year Folks! The painting is featured in  @art_squat  magazine's new interview with me in their 3rd Issue http://www.art-squat.com/articles3/Gregg_Chadwick/index.php #art   #WimWenders   #Au...
