Bedtime Aviation by Rob Gonsalves


I love Rob Gonsalves’s unique magical realism style.  He creates wonderful surrealistic optical illusions by seamlessly merging two different images or perspectives together in one picture.  He often includes children in his paintings.  This painting depicts children at bedtime letting their imaginations run wild.  When I first saw this image it made me feel nostalgic as it reminded me of what it felt like to be a child and of the delightful imagination that children have.  I really like the clever way the artist plays with perspective.
