Arturo Sanchez returns to pure painting with Restless Soul. Stunning in its simplicity and straightforward composition, the work has two major elements: sepia-tinted clouds swirling over the horizon, and the title character recumbent with his back to the viewer.
Meteorological phenomena have been used as literary devices to transport characters from one world to another. Where Lewis Carroll's Alice stepped through the looking glass into Wonderland, L. Frank Baum's Dorothy was swept away by a tornado into the Land of Oz. Similarly, Restless Soul is the beginning of an adventure, the precious few moments before the point of no return. With his able brush, Sanchez captures a suspenseful moment brimming with possibilities. Restless Soul channels the very same nomadic impulses that are deeply ingrained into the human psyche. The faceless drifter is the traveler in all of us: ever curious, ever searching, ever wondering, and ever wandering.
