Thursday 1 October

First edition

The painting for Thursday 1 October, First edition: A lone red runaway balloon drifts between towering bamboo stalks, its string trailing through the leaves, caught mid-escape in a quiet grove. Rendered as a faded 1950s Polaroid with soft focus, creamy white border, warm yellowed tones and slight light leaks. Hazy, uncertain light filters through the canopy, leaving it unclear whether the balloon is fleeing something or leading the way.
