Gentle Blades of Spring

quilted blades and aerial spray have added meaning

Quilted Spray - art prints / digital painting – Dan Beck – 2005

I am featuring this piece today – one because I gallery chanced and image rouletted upon it and two because it is getting to that time of year. Spring is rampant here and pollen and every other allergen upon us – throw in a few sprays and who knows what the results might be.

I love my surrounded by fields setting, but I know I need to get out.

When I wrote about this digital painting before, one of the things I omitted was the ridiculousness of the blades of the helicopter – the seemingly most dangerous aspect of a helicopter. Everyone crouches even though they couldn’t hit them.

The blades have been turned into fabric here- quilted looking – thus making the spray – though cool and beautiful, appear even less safe.

One can always add meaning.
