Large and bold, this 40" tall oil painting in deep deep garnet and off-white speaks of ancient worlds, where survival depended on keep the seeds safe and dry through the winter. The capacious belly and bright red interior allude to future new life and abundance.
This premium painting is offered at a substantial discount here on Chairish simply because my new smaller storage space is at capacity. It's a win-win for both of us when you nab this beloved piece at this fleeting number. Every painting I make has a life of its own, none are clones or even close to being so. There are perennial themes and motifs though.
The motives underlying all my paintings are both current and timeless: our common need for sustenance, beauty, and grace. Humans have not changed dramatically since we first appeared and I look for threads of continuity, aiming to make imagery that’s rooted in the mythic, the mystic, and the cycles of Nature.
Paintings of vessels, birds, plant life, and human figures are cast as aspects of an elusive yet inviting sanctuary. Frequently the images are rooted in the remnants of ancient cultures, both tangible and oral, but they are always responding to our current world as well.
Concurrent with my professional art practice, soon after completing a dual major in fine art and philosophy, I was also an organic farmer from 1988-2017 largely occupied with goats and with effecting alchemical transformations of milk and plants. Those decades of raw, ever-precarious, thoughtful farm experience resonate throughout the artwork, testifying to the cycles & perils of life for all sentient beings, humans included. less
