An ethereal cloud of deep blue floats across the canvas against a backdrop of fiery red, dashes of orange and black paint drips in this vibrant acrylic by Toronto’s Lynne Fernie.“It’s a visual language in the same sense as when a poet sits down, and they have some sort of feeling. They know there’s something to be said.” Lynne Fernie
