DETAIL SHOWING QUOTE
This piece is a swirling symphony in shades of blue — an abstract composition where rounded, organic shapes drift and overlap like thought bubbles on the verge of becoming something more. Delicate, meandering lines weave their way through the forms, creating a sense of gentle motion and quiet complexity.
Curving clusters of tiny white dots ripple across the surface like constellations or whispered trails, bringing rhythm and texture to the flow. Scattered geometric accents — pastel-toned squares and outlined black circles — add structure without breaking the dreamlike quality.
Three gold metallic circles gleam against the cool palette, their shimmer catching the light and grounding the composition with quiet confidence.
And tucked subtly into the scene? A hand-lettered quote from Oscar Wilde: “Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast.” The words curve and tuck into the artwork, forming part of its visual rhythm — not just text, but shape and texture in their own right.
The result is fluid, dynamic, and playful — a dance of colour, line, and wit that rewards a second look (preferably after coffee).
