When Skies Sang And Dreams Replied
Carol Burns
£1,800
Description
In this layered painting, the sky is reimagined...
not just as a backdrop, but as a living, breathing presence.
Deep blues and golden yellows unfold in conversation, intertwining like voices in a chorus.
Shapes drift, meet, and merge...
echoes of thoughts reaching for each other, like dreams finding resonance.
The sky here is not distant...
it leans in, listens, responds.
It remembers.
It sings.
This piece is a meditation on connection...
between light and shadow, memory and moment, self and sky.
Over 30 hours of work and more than 20 layers of paint and collage give the piece its depth and texture. Cool blues bring quiet, warm yellows hold onto the sun, and fine lines trace the invisible threads between sound and feeling, between the seen and the sensed.
It invites the viewer into a world where dreams don’t just wonder...
they are answered by the sky itself.
This piece comes unframed. (There is no 'correct' orientation for this work - turn it, choose your favourite orientation and then hang it on the wall)

About the artist
Carol Burns
Wiltshire, United KingdomCarol Burns
Wiltshire, United KingdomI’m an award-winning abstract artist drawn to the emotional and narrative layers that shape who we are. My work begins with a concept or feeling and evolves through intuitive mark-making, paint, and collage. I explore how storytelling, both internal and shared, helps us make sense of ourselves and the world around us.
