ABILITY TO DISTINGUISH (painting)

Description

Narrative

In a pool, the water can be full of new life. The frog keeps an eye on his offspring, but he fears the water is cloudy. He no longer sees any distinction between his offspring and that of the fish. Maybe it is not the water that is cloudy, but his own view and he may be colorblind. With his green eye the frog sees green leaf fish and with his pink eye he sees pink tadpoles. Will his offspring evolve into pink frogs?

Toyism Paintings

Toyism paintings are nothing if not bizarre but recognizable imageries drawn from reality, the surreal, and fantasy. The intense play of lines, shapes, dots and colors is intended to help open the viewer’s mind. And to critical thinking about the human condition in the present day world. Toyism is figurative, contemporary and based on a story. These stories can cover all kinds of subjects. From happy to critical or serious subjects. Toyism paintings are very labour intensive. Every painting consist of several layers of paint. Making the colours bright and vibrant and able to withstand the test of time.

Paintings are created by a mixed group of professional artists from around the world. Also with diverse cultural backgrounds and working in various disciplines. Yet all artists have a like-minded view of how to experience this art and inspire each other. No matter their own backgrounds or beliefs, everyone can express themselves in this style without losing their own value or feeling. Therefore every toyist can influence and enrich the style. Hence toyists tell their own story and depict it.
