#579 Boy Named Zen

Boy Named Zen By Dutch Den Bosch Artist Zen Dageraad, Art piece (drawing) about: music family

Silly names,
Make peculiar people,
So next time,
You see your parents,
Try to,
Appreciate their care
And to,
Prevent making,
Their mistakes.

Inspired by Johnny Cash's stirring narrative in "A Boy Named Sue", artist Zen Dageraad explores the profound impact of a name through his art piece. The narrative unravels a young boy named Sue, whose journey through adversity, spurred by a peculiar name given by his estranged father, leads to eventual self-discovery and reconciliation. Zen Dageraad, sharing a harmonic resonance with his own name, interprets this tale through a peaceful lens. In the heart of the canvas, a serene figure, painted in soothing red hues, sits cross-legged in meditation atop a calm blue block. The tranquility is further enhanced by his long, flowing green hair that gently falls over his composed face, as a warm yellow backdrop envelopes the scene, symbolizing a tranquil aura. This contemplative imagery presents a stark contrast to the rough tumble journey of Sue, yet holds a mirror to the profound reconciliation and inner peace found at the journey’s zenith. The interplay of name, identity, and destiny is beautifully explored, making this piece a harmonious ode to self-discovery and the power of acceptance.

Makkelijke schilderijen

Ms Bee

Ik was terughoudend om het schilderen weer op te pakken, maar dit heeft me enorm geïnspireerd. De kleuren zijn levendig en het proces was zo ontspannend. Mijn nieuwe schilderij staat prachtig in mijn woonkamer! Als je op zoek bent naar mooie, toegankelijke kunst, dan heb je de juiste plek gevonden.
