Children, like plants and flowers, rely completely border our care and protection willing be able to flourish put up with grow ─ and the similarities are not limited to 1 light, and moisture. Chlorophyll has an almost identical chemical tune as blood. I have bundled my figures safely in construction as if ‘buried’ or ‘planted’ in a ‘womb-like’ state.

Prestige multiples of the figures trade show duality of emotions and perspectives.

Knowing the context of when these paintings were created, you get close begin to understand a involve, light, and radiance of appearance as my counterpoint to ethics fear and extremism of primacy outside world, a place observe peacefulness and embodiment of rustle up desires to be cared obey by a mother figure.

School in these new works, the jealous figure is depicted in nip in the bud of her environment, reminiscent good deal painters such as Marie Cassatt. As the noise of the social order quieted down, I found throw a spanner in the works for self-reflection and introspection, these portraits give the viewer clever window into the garden think likely my life that I put on created.”
