"In a Daze" is a striking original oil painting by Pete Tillack, painted on sleek aluminum and infused with the artist’s signature blend of wit, symbolism, and sophistication. This captivating still-life composition features a blackbird inquisitively perched atop a crushed soda can, while two delicate daisies rest beside it—evoking a curious tension between chaos and calm.

The ornate damask background adds a subtle elegance, while the reflective surface of the aluminum intensifies the interplay of light and texture, giving the scene a sense of immediacy and depth. Tillack’s meticulous detail brings life to each element—from the shimmer of crushed metal to the softness of the daisy petals—creating a layered experience that invites closer reflection.

Framed by the artist in a modern, blackened molding that complements its tonal contrasts, "In a Daze" is ready to hang as a bold centerpiece. The juxtaposition of industrial waste and natural beauty playfully raises questions of environmental awareness, innocence, and fleeting indulgence—wrapped in Tillack’s unmistakable visual storytelling.

A one-of-a-kind artwork, "In a Daze" bridges contemporary pop with timeless themes, making it an inspired addition to any art collection that values originality, depth, and a touch of the unexpected.
