Hi my friends πŸ«‚πŸŽ¨πŸ§‘

I need to tell you something I haven't said clearly before.

For months now, I've been working on something larger than individual paintings.

A project in four movements:

SILENCE AMONG THE CLOUDS ☁️ β€” complete (4 paintings)

SILENCE AMONG THE FLOWERS 🌸 β€” complete (4 paintings)

SILENCE AMONG THE WAVES 🌊 β€” just completed (4 paintings)

SILENCE AMONG THE SILENCES πŸ”² β€” coming (4 paintings)

16 paintings. 4 quartets. One question that keeps evolving:

*What does silence look like?*

I started with clouds β€” the silence of things that drift and dissolve.

Then flowers β€” the silence of fragility, of bloom and fade.

Now waves β€” the silence that remains beneath restless motion.

And finally, silences β€” plural, abstract, unbound.

The first three quartets are 20Γ—20cm. Contained. Held in a square frame.

But the last quartet breaks free: **20Γ—25cm**.

Because when you strip away clouds, flowers, waves β€” when you're left with silence facing silence β€” the square can no longer hold it.

It needs to rise...

This is what I'm building.

This is the my cathedral. πŸ”²

Now you have the whole structure.

Now you know where it's going. πŸ”²

I love this!

You are the first person who came to mind when I thought about this project, a true collector of my paintings. 🧑🎨

Four quartets, one question about silence. The final movement comes maybe in 2026.

Idk yet. 🧑

Cool stuff πŸ™πŸ–ΌοΈ

Thanks bro! πŸ™πŸŽ¨πŸ«‚

It's been months of work, but now the structure is finally visible. πŸ€™

Beautiful! πŸ§‘βœ¨πŸ™

I'm glad you like it, thank you very much πŸ™πŸŽ¨

The skies speak to me. Each seen for a second as i live providing back drops to my life, they are silent but bring volume

The skies as backdrops to your life β€” I love that.

That's exactly what I was trying to capture. Not the sky itself, but what it does to the space around us. The volume in silence.

Sounds like CLOUDS might be your movement.

The subtle rainbow is magical. Amazing work

"Absolutely! It’s like nature’s way of reminding us that beauty often hides in the little things. 🌈✨"

Exactly. The subtle things that disappear if you look away for a second.

That's what the Clouds quartet is about β€” catching what drifts and fades.

Thank you πŸ™

Thank you πŸ™

THE PROMISE β€” the first of the Clouds quartet.

That subtle rainbow is what happens when light filters through moisture just before a storm... in waiting thunder. The moment when the sky holds both.

Glad it spoke to you.

Beautiful art Fren

Thank you very much πŸ™πŸŽ¨

It took time, but now the project is almost finished, just the last piece is missing... Actually 4.

Beautiful paintings here.

Thanks πŸ«‚πŸŽ¨

Oh you just gave me an idea for my photography πŸ˜‡ These are brilliant btw, love how much thought went into this project 🧐

You've got a DM. πŸ€™

Another DM for you πŸ‘€πŸ€™

The painter’s art is in deciding what to include in a canvas. His battle is with silence.

The photographer’s art is in deciding what to exclude from the frame. His battle is with noise.

This work is beautiful and though silent speaks poetically the language of the soul.

Thank you very much πŸ™πŸ«‚πŸŽ¨
