Dave Kinsey 3R Daisies Print on sale today


Stop and think for a moment of how empty art would be were it not for the simplest of subjects. Flowers, for example. Without those pond lilies he eventually made famous, Monet would have had to content himself with sundry objects found around the yard or (perhaps) the always-less-than obliging family cat. Van Gogh's sunflowers would not be visible to us. Nor, for that matter, would 50% of Georgia O'Keefe's catalogue of works - and she went on record as saying she didn't even like flowers!

Dave Kinsey has done what others have done before and he has done it well. His 3R Daisies (the numeral-letter being a reference to Three Rivers, California) is yet another reminder that colors are the playful and restive ghosts within nature. They seem to abide, they give the appearance of being imprisoned within matter, but all that is illusion; they are linked to light as lovers are linked by passion. This still-life of ordinary daisies is infused with so much heat that the viewer should not be surprised by a sudden blush rising to his or her cheeks.

!xRun wanted to go big with Dave Kinsey's second release with 1xRUN and thought "Flowers", based on the current series he's been working over the past few years, would be perfect. They're grateful for the opportunity to bring this print to all of you, their collectors.

All prints are Signed & Numbered by the Artist and come with a Certificate of Authenticity from 1xRUN.

On sale at Noon Eastern time today at 1xRun.com
