The Balloon Seller is a figurative coatsal painting by artist, Fred Hayden. There is a wonderful depth of tone to the work, enhanced by Hayden's subtle use of texture. The defined line of the balloons against the skyline creates a  strong focal point. Hayden expertly weaves the painting together using tones of pink, red and blue throughout.
