| These paintings are both a diary and a passage. They tell of fear: the fear of ending and of the resulting emptiness. I paint iconic faces and bodies using intense color contrasts and small active brushstrokes. I use black to punctuate the relationship of the terror within to the stillness without in the hope of conveying a state of submission to, and yet ultimate conquest of, separation. |
