Halloween Approaches!

 As our days get chilly and our nights become blustery cold, Halloween is fast approaching. My friend Mr, Bones holds my newest painting for you to decide - up or down? It is a dilemma!

 An Uneasy Accord

 

 

Oil on linen panel / 24 x 20 

In an Uneasy Accord, awareness of danger is pronounced but remains uncertain. The figure's poised stillness exists alongside tigers whose wild nature is only partially contained by circumstance rather than agreement.

Together with it's companion piece A Perilous Comfort, the works examine the gap between human interpretation and natural reality. Danger is not portrayed as conquered or controlled but as ever-present - and perhaps underestimated.

Please feel free to leave a comment, as your thoughts are very important to the artist and much appreciated. 

 

 A Brief Moment in Time

 Oil on linen panel / 24 x 20

In A Perilous Comfort, apparent composure masks a deeper misconception of the situation. The stillness of the white lions is seen as submission, yet their restraint suggests controlled energy rather than passivity - wildness held temporarily in check.

A Time of Renewal

Spring is just barely beginning to make itself known here in the high Sierra Nevada foothills - in fact we had snowfall last week and are still waiting for spring flowers to bloom. But a bevy of bunnies appeared on my dining table just in time for Easter morning. Surely Spring flowers will soon follow!

I wish everyone good health and safety in this time of new beginnings and renewal. My husband and I are doing well as we social distance. I hope to have some new work to show soon and have had a wonderful time checking out your blog sites and viewing all the inspiring artwork there.

Take very good care of yourselves!
