About "ready to swing"

by Jan Keteleer (JanKé): A Journey Beyond the Canvas

About the artwork

"Ready to Swing" captures a fleeting moment of pure childhood anticipation. The two boys, sitting separately on wooden swings, are caught in a tranquil yet expectant pause, their hands gripping the ropes, preparing to launch themselves skyward. I deliberately portrayed them with their backs to the viewer, giving the scene a sense of universality—this could be anyone's memory.
The warm palette of blues, softened yellows, and hints of orange mirrors the colors of a serene sky at sunset, evoking nostalgia and calm. The fluffy white clouds, with their dreamlike texture, inspire a sense of infinite possibility, framing the boys in a world that feels both real and slightly magical. Their contrasting clothing—a bright red shirt on one and a pale light-colored shirt on the other—adds balance while subtly drawing the eye to both figures.
The edges of the painting feature a slightly worn texture, hinting at the passage of time, as if this moment has been pulled from a cherished memory. "Ready to Swing" celebrates the simple joys of childhood—moments of stillness just before a burst of simple, timeless delight.
