This image is an experiment on wings. Giving space to my work is unusual. But I like it. In real life this canvas is very textured, It has layers and layers and layers behind it. It was an experiment. and it represents to me the way in which our experienced build on one an other and as they build we learn more and more. particularity as a i grow older I see the wisdom and the value in what has gone before. i see that all the experiences of my younger years and those of the my sister, my mother and my grandmothers before me have filled me with a wisdom that enables me to fly. Acrylic, ink & chalk on canvas SOLD

I sat quietly and just let emotions flow through me. It was an interesting exercise. To look at it in real life it has much , much more texture and depth. here though, it looks a little flat. Part of my process lately has been very much to be in the present and allow the flow of what ever comes. I’m learning safety in the “what is” rather that trying to force what I think “should be”. This piece is on cotton canvas, using acrylic paints, felt pens, pastels and pencil. Its very mixed in its approach, I have used my fingers and stamping to apply the paint and texture, I have scrubbed at it and doodles and followed the rhythms of music to bring forth what lies beneath. The colours are calming and soft. the lotus flowers, and pods I see regular in my work, but the symbol in the middle to the left appears very much like something that was a regular visitor in my work 15 to 20 years ago. To be honest, I’m unsure if it comes to me as a baby, a mother or a yoni – maybe it has something to do with creation. That would make sense, given I associate the lotus flower and the lotus seeds pods very strongly with the emergence of new creations, being birthed anew so to speak.
