Behind the Canvas
I cant tell you how much I love making sets with my artist girlfriends. I suppose it’s the type of grown-up version of little girls playing tea-time or dress-up. We go scouring thrift shops for pretty little finds to take home. Then we arrange, playing with color, repeating patterns, and of course directing light. From the outside it looks like a mess with boxes and draped fabrics, clip-on lights, and a pile of discarded items we chose to cut from the scene. But you can’t see all that mess in the resulting paintings, it’s all elegance and sophistication in the art. And I adore this contrast, this knowing I have behind the scenes, and being able to choose what I’ll show and what I won’t. I become the author of the story.

As the proud new owner of this fabulous work of art, I was even more thrilled to see it when it arrived at my home. Photos do not do justice to the amazing qualities of light and colour, atmosphere and peaceful feeling that Tayla has managed to convey in this still life. It will be a constant source of pleasure and I encourage others to consider other available pieces of Tayla's art .. they will enrich anyone's life.
