The flat pink field gives the work a theatrical directness, while the exaggerated  limbs, simplified body, and cartoon intensity keep the image unstable: part garden, part dream, part erotic joke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting treats desire as strange, comic, bodily, and alive. It continues the series' interest in queer mythology, sexual energy, colour, distortion, and the freedom of drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brendan Art Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44077221806123,"sku":null,"price":2400.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/2110\/6731\/files\/Dream_of_the_Gardener_s_Husband_FINAL_EXPORT.jpg?v=1779023734","url":"https:\/\/www.brendanartstudio.com\/products\/dream-of-the-gardeners-husband","provider":"Brendan Art Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
