'twiggy' - when dreams & art combine.

Some things and people blow my mind in this world and I feel blessed to have the pleasure in meeting them, their work and inspiration. Whether they create, write, talk or think - I have such admiration for those who can articulate an idea and see it through to fruition no matter how bold or controversial with the adage 'If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it' (Einstein).

Meghan Byrne, known as Twiggy is one of those people. She's a Sydney based artist who creates a breadth of wonderful dreamlike images, using old traditional oil/acrylic painting techniques to create interesting colourful canvases. She doesn't conform and yet has such attention to detail and quality (I know for a fact that she makes her own canvases and sources the best and most premium quality oil paints for example) that shows how much respect she has for art and her work. The effect is one that reminds you to dream. To question. To open up somehow.

So I invested in a piece I couldn't resist.

Here are some other beauties.
