"Dark Night of the Soul," original painting, 30" x 40"
In the "Darkest Before the Dawn" series of work, I'm exploring darkness and things that are hidden, obscured and invisible. I'm interested in the process of discovering and exposing secrets and lies. I use a number of different techniques to create this work, responding to each piece as it develops. I let the painting tell me what it needs next, and the pieces are created through the application of many layers of paint. The paintings are dark, but they are also lovely, revealing a subtle beauty to be found in the dark. Sustainability is an important part of my artistic practice, and this painting was created using repurposed leftover house paint that would otherwise go to waste. 30" x 40" original painting repurposed acrylic latex paint on canvas coated with UV varnish for durability and to protect against fading gallery wrap canvas, 1-1/2 inches deep with painted sides signed by the artist on the back wired and ready to hang FedEx shipping within the US contact me for an internation
