Miro’s Garden by Wayne Vaughn

Nature and industry inspire my work.  I strive to bring animation, balance, and intrigue to my creations, playing on gravity, but keeping trust between the piece and its landscape. My hope is that my work invites the viewer to play, question, and respond. 

Joan Miro’s painting ‘The Tilled Field’ depicting a stylized view of his family farm in Catalonia is an inspired setting for ‘Miro’s Garden.’ Can’t you just see it rising above a bed of flowers amongst all the surrounding iconography? I enjoyed the challenge of bringing focus, color and playfulness to this large-scale image and hope it brings a smile, invites a conversation, or inspires an artist’s creation.
