'Fragile Joy'

Cold wax mixed media painting on Arches oil paper 

'YOU KNOW IT'S NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS I'

This work has a collage background on Arches Oil paper. Many layers of cold wax and dry pigments are layered, some scraped back to reveal the original collage work. My work is a reflection of  the ebb and flow of my life. Embrace the uncertainty of not knowing what the meaning is, think about this work as a visual metaphor for what one might call reality. 

'YOU KNOW IT'S NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS II'

This work is a visual metaphor for my reality. You might say it reflects our lives now: a state of constantly negotiating between realities, different worlds and perspectives. 

'YOU KNOW IT'S NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS III'

A continuation from I and II. I ask the viewer to embrace the uncertainty of not knowing, think about abstract art as a visual metaphor for what one might call reality. This work is an exploration of that uncomfortable feeling of instability and uncertainty.
