A Colorful Hopelessness

Ky McDonald, Set Me Free

Artist: Ky McDonald

“There’s no place like home,” proclaims Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz. Our homes are the foundation of all of our hopes and dreams while also very real places that exude a warmth created by the people that inhabit the space. They are a reflection of our hearts, our personalities, our travels, our furry friends and our treasured memories. I love how local artist Ky McDonald exquisitely captures the architectural elements of a space as it unfolds with drama upon the canvas. My imagination takes off with anticipation as I dream about who will gather to share a story at this table that McDonald paints with a colorful hopefulness.
