Raining Cows by Morgan Sheardown
2024-10-08 18:00 - 2024-11-04 22:00 | Riverdale Hub Gallery 1326 Gerrard St E, Canada
We are pleased to announce a solo exhibition by Morgan Sheardown featuring his existing works and new creations.
Morgan’s body of work expresses the inspiration he gets from rain, color, and his appreciation of cows. He uses rain as a filter to distort and create different levels of abstraction. The cows are graphic however, his work is painted on layers to the feeling of rain.

Morgan’s body of work, “Raining Cows”, expresses his inspiration from rain, color, and his appreciation of cows. He uses rain as a filter to distort and create different levels of abstraction. The cows are graphic however, his work is painted on layers to the feeling of rain. One can actually see the layers and splashes of rain creating a 3D like floating effect. The colors, the clouds, the rain and the graphic application all come together to create a happy and calming effect. In these stressful and turbulent times, Morgan wants “Raining Cows”, to make people happy and to make them smile. However, Morgan also looks to “Raining Cows” as his symbol of triumph, withstanding the storms of his life. The widespread popularity of Morgan’s work has been translated into fashion, interior design and the latest revolution of the art world, NFT’s.

Each year more and more participants join in this global celebration.
